Happy December!

Natalie is a rascal!







We enjoyed Thanksgiving in Fort Wayne this year. Cole was very excited to go to Indiana to play with his cousins. The kids helped to decorate the Christmas tree, Natalie got to help Daddy put the star on the tree. Cole keeps wanting to know if Santa is here yet!

Happy Halloween!

It was a cold Halloween here, brrr! It kinda takes the fun out of it when they have to wear their coats over their costumes. Natalie dressed up as an Ohio State cheerleader (that was thanks to Nana and Poompa) and Cole dressed up as Diego, from "Go, Diego, Go". I got the mask at the last minute and cant believe he wore it the whole time, he was a trooper!
We decided to leave Natalie in the wagon after a few houses, but she was having none of it and was climbing out to get to the door! She walked up and held out her bag just like the big kids!
Our neighbors set up a haunted trail in the woods that Cole got to walk through before the scary costumed people were back there, I think he liked that. I thought it was a very creative idea and even got a few screams from me!
Hope you all had a Happy Halloween!

Klackles

Cole went back to school/daycare and loves going. He goes part time and cant leave home without his backpack. Natalie likes to play in her kitchen and keeps trying to say new words. She is very squeaky and likes to get her way.
We went to the circus last week, Cole was mesmerized, Natalie lost interest quickly, but we still had a good time with our free tickets!!

Cole's New Room

As Cole says, his new bed is "huge!" Uncle Ed is moving to live on his boat and needed to get rid of everything. We took this awesome bedroom set. Not sure if Cole was ready for a "huge" bed, but he seems to love it.
Natalie is getting her third tooth and is busy trying to learn to talk. Her most favorite words are "hi" and "uh-oh". She loves to give her babies hugs.
