Well that sucked

This morning is hard. Yesterday was even harder. But I have to put on my big girl pants and move on. If you are wondering what I’m talking about …the Ravens. The Patriots didn’t win that game…we lost it. And that’s all I have to say about it. Ugg.

Now on to the better part of my weekend. Saturday we woke up to snow. While it was only an inch it was just enough for Cole to go out and enjoy his first snow fall. We called up the neighbors and let the kids run around in the fun white stuff. Cole just lights up when he’s around older kids. Move over mom and dad. The cool people are here now. Ha. Snow and older kids to play with equals heaven for Cole.
My poor kid could barely move in all his snow gear but didn’t mind at all…even after he's third face plant…all I heard out of him were deep down belly laughs. It was awesome. Oh and guess my mom was right ...damn snow boots came in handy.

Friday Films

I think it's time for a Friday Film...it's been awhile since I picked up the actual video camera. In fact even longer since I actually uploaded any of the videos I have taken. Shame on me. I had videos from 3 months ago I totally don't even remember taking. Oh well.
Word explosion is in full effect at this house...my son said his first sentence to me last night. "Read Nighttime Book"...what?!? I nearly fell over in shock. I mean he's been putting two words together for the last few weeks but this one blew me over. Like Woah. I don't know if it has anything to do with all the talking but Cole can't seem to get enough of his books. All he wants to do is read them or have you read him ALL his books. I love that he's taking such liking to reading. I love to read. Be a bookworm my boy just like your mommy!

Crazy Stupid Love..Yes!

I watched Crazy Stupid Love this weekend. Again. And again I’m left drooling over Ryan Gosling. Of course I liked him in the Notebook, but who didn’t? But in this movie he has catapulted into O.M.G Hotness! And is now my new celebrity crush. If you haven’t seen the movie you should...just be prepared to swoon over Ryan and his abs. Yummy.


Just wanted share this and try to warm up this cold rainy Tuesday.

Random Friday

1. Cole has become extremely attached to an adorable stuffed animal dog he got for Christmas. This is a first for him. I figured we should name this new pal of his so I tried out a few names with Cole.

Me: "Cole let's name your doggie, how about Sam?"
Cole: Blank Stare.
Me: "OK not Sam, how about Max?"
Cole: Smiles and says "Max"


So now Max is his constant companion at bedtime, TV time and anytime we are in the car. The cutest thing is how Cole will look for and ask for Max by his name. Be still my heart.

2. I finally bought Cole snow boots. After my mother badgered me, telling me I better not wait because when it does snow there will not be any available.


Love the Grey and Orange. Now we have snow boots. And we will have ZERO snow this season. Doesn't it always work that way?!

3. Hubs pushed me to watch  the movie Moneyball with him the other night. Well it wasn't to much of a push ... I mean Brad Pitt isn't hard on the eyes. Anyway, what a pleasant surprise! It was such an interesting story about baseball, i really liked it.

4. Seems Puma is warming up to playing with Cole these days. No matter what Cole seems to do him. Here is Puma rocking Mr. Potato Head's Glasses.


5. Grocery Shopping with a Toddler. Man it isn't easy. I'm lucky if I get everything on my list before I hear him start yelling "out" over and over. I have to bribe him with food most of the time.


6. I had to call poison control this week for the first time in my life. Cole's arm's seem to have grown 10ft and can reach beyond what I thought was safe from his cute little fingers. While in my bedroom running around he had reached up and grabbed the Afrin nose spray off my night table. I walked over to find him with the top off and it in his hands. I have no idea if he ingested any but i freaked. I called his doctor who then freaked my out more and told me to call poison control. Thankfully it seems you have to take down a pretty good amount to cause any harm.

7. Reason for the Afrin nose spray ...I have been sick for a whole week. Today I finally feel better. But now Cole is sick. Ugg I hate winter. HATE IT.

8. Were in the process of finishing our basement. I can't wait to use that extra space. We have big plans for down there and I can't wait to see how it turns out. I have started daydreaming of possible Furniture.


Oh hello Henry Sectional...I love you.  

Happy Purple Friday! Go RAVENS! :)

Wordless Wednesday

My son loves sticks. If he is outside he is sure to have at least two sticks in his hands. Why we spend money on toys?!? The joy I see in his face when he has "brokein" his stick into two is so funny. I suppose it's another thing boys like to "do". 002-2 With more then two sticks... 005

007-2 Playing Peek-a-Boo behind the tree...with stick in hand. Might be my favorite picture of him. This is so Cole. 008
