I'm 3 months old now!

Smile teddy! I've found that if you smile, they take less pictures of you. I hate seeing stars every time the flash goes off.

Photoshoot

A few weeks ago, we took Cole to get some professional photos taken. We were warned to bring a change of clothes since the photos would be taken without his diaper. For some reason I thought that only meant a shirt. After Cole's first accident on me, I quickly realized that I should have brought more clothes. The photo shoot lasted 4 hours and every single accident happened to land on me. Here are some of the pictures from the photo shoot. You can also visit the photographer's site for some more photos. www.codinaphotography.com

Black widow

We've had our fair share of scorpions and even a rattle snake but tonight we found a black widow spider in our garage. You can see the characteristic red hour glass on her belly. Luckily I found this before Lauren wandered into her web.


Here you can see the aftermath of another deadly creature that goes around eating the heads off of animal crackers.


"Nice Chester. I won't hurt you." After 2 yrs of avoiding Lauren, Chester is finally letting Lauren pet him. Big mistake.

Just peachy

It's been consistently over 110 degrees over here so I'm helping to make some ice cream. They said this would be fun but I don't buy it. Can you tell I'm barely able to smile?


Ah this is much better. I've never seen this machine in my life and I'm already 2 years old. Is this one of those wedding gifts that you only use a few times a year or in my parents case, once every 2 years?


Steady.....make sure you get every piece.


Yum!

Words of wisdom

Baby Cole, maybe you should wear a hat when we go out in public.



Baby Cole, when they say to look at them, you don't always have to do what they say. Look at me. I'm busy txting my peeps. After I'm done, I'll flash them my pearly whites, and they'll gush over me. Stick with me and you'll have your own phone when you start walking. I plan on upgrading to an iPhone when I turn 3.

Happy 4th of July

Our HOA sponsors a July 4th parade and celebration every year and we decided to check it out this year. In addition to the snow cones, they had hot dogs although 9am was just a little too early to be eating hot dogs.



Here you can see all the cool water slides they had setup.



They also had a bike decorating contest as you can see from the sea of bikes.



Lauren is enjoying her snow cone while checking out the fire engine.



The coolest part of the celebration had to be when the fire engine arrived and proceeded to spray everyone with a little water. We fortunately kept a safe distance. :)

Future American Idol

Lauren learns a lot of songs and nursery rhymes at daycare. This particular one, we weren't familiar with and as a result weren't quite sure what she was saying. After some searching we figured it out. See if you can tell what she's singing (including arm movements too).
