Pine Cones

Cole is turning into quite the outdoorsman. He enjoys nature hikes, looking for bugs, picking flowers (or weeds... whichever) and checking out pine cones. Lucky for Cole, he doesn't have to go far to find some pretty cool pine cones... they are sitting in his front yard courtesy of his Oma.

Here are some shots of Cole checking out the BIG Pine cones.











Easter weekend with all the grand folks present recap coming soon.

As we are sure most of you know, Cole was a lucky enough to witness the very first victory for the The University of San Diego Toreros in the NCAA Tournament this past weekend over UConn. Cole seemed to be the lucky charm as he awoke from his nap just in time to see the last second shot go and to see Dad go nuts. Unfortunately, Cole was napping two days later when USD exited the tourney after a valiant effort vs Western Kentucky. Great Season for the Toreros!

Boys Will Be Boys

Cole is a little boy... can't say it any other way. He loves trucks, looking for bugs and is very much into jumping. Jumping up and down is a passion but more recently he has taken his lack of fear to a new level and has turned his interests to wanting to jump off of things. Off the bed, off the couch etc. And while Mom and Dad are very much aware of the dangers that come with this recent desire we also know that we can only do so much to stiffle it. So instead of trying to stop him all together, we do our best to make sure he safe.

This past weekend, Cole took a few of those pointers to heart. While Mom and Dad were doing some work in the kitchen while Cole was thought to be watching one of his favorite DVD's, Cole was up to something else.

Cole managed to pull all the cusions off the couch turning them into his own saftey mat for couch leaping. Here are some quick photos that we were able to snap (sorry for the fact they're blurry... they are action shots).

Oh yeah... as you can imagine Cole and Dad are thrilled with the fact Dad's Alma Mater The University of San Diego, won the WCC tourney , last weekend and is headed to the NCAA Tourney. Go Toreros!!!

Trucks and Tubs

Almost two weeks since the last update... ugh. Sorry, been crazy at the work place. Cole however is what makes it all better. He continues to be very active and is currently in a big fire truck phase. He loves him the fire trucks. We bought him a DVD that Mom and Dad thought wasn't going to do the trick after the inital screening but, oh boy, were we wrong. Loves it... all the time. Each day on the way to school and on the way home we are looking for trucks... Garbage Trucks (icky trucks), Buses (BUUUSSSSS), Big Rigs (TRUUUUUCK)etc. It is a special day if we happen to see a real fire truck out and about. Good times.

Cole is and has been a fan of the bath for some time now. He loves playing and splashing in the water. And the bubbles... don't get him started on the bubbles.

Here is a glimpse of tub time.
