Focus on the good

I recently saw this posted on facebook. And how true it is...

There comes a time in life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh, forget the bad, and focus on the good. So, love the people who treat you right. Pray for the ones who don't. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is part of LIFE...Getting back up is LIVING.

I thought it was worth sharing!

Today Cole had Breakfast with Daddy! Sort of-I brought Cole's chair in my room so he could eat breakfast and skype with Josh. It was so funny because he always wants to share his food. Josh enjoyed some strawberries and blue berries but there was no way Cole was giving up his Jello!
Today brings us to approximately 100 more days. Not that we are counting. Tick-toc Tick-toc Hopefully the time will go by fast!

Stretching Out

I love the arms behind the head! He cracks me up. Thank goodness for Christmas-he is switching into a different size again! I've been checking the after holiday clearance racks and getting him some new clothes. As you can see a few weeks back he was already max loading his onesie. Poor Baby

Just Like Mom

Here's Cole at Gym Class this morning. He was rockin'. He has been a busy bee and has come a long way. I'm very proud of him! I have to admit the first few classes I was wondering why I was paying for him to sit on my lap but now I can't keep him off the equipment. Going to little gym is nice so he gets some play time, especially with these cold winter days.

Pudding Anyone?

Laughing All The Way

When the weather is nice I've been taking Cole around the yard. He is a die hard. He never wants to go inside. Hope everyone is enjoying the weather 15 above today-Yahooooo!!!

Happy New Year!

Hello 2011!
So my plans for the new year are as followed:
Work on being healthier, Cut my losses and move on, and Adventure. I think all three will be great to do as a family. Things are moving into action already. Cole and I are signed up at the YMCA. He gets play time with other kids and we get to use the pool. We don't call Cole "Baby Beluga" for nothing!!! He loves the water. We already had grandpa Bob come and join us too.
With the new year we will also find out soon where our next base is going to be. I'm thankful that Cole and I have been given the time to spend with my family. There are a few things I wish I would have done differently or changed but I think that's life. I've accepted the fact that you just cant' change people. And you can't be in two places at once!
The condo is being rented out. Tenants will move in the condo in about two more weeks. I wish we could wash our hands of it but I'm also pleased that we will get to return someday. We have some great friends in the DC area.
As for adventure, I was hoping to leave the house; but with Cole I may not need to do that, it's always an adventure with an 19month boy around.
I apologize for not blogging more. I have several fun stories but I often draw a blank when I come to make an entry. But not today!
After I took the mail in today Cole was flipping through the magazines. Actually it was the Victoria Secret Swim Suit Magazine. His father would be proud as he would point at the boobies and be boos (belly buttons) on some of the girls. At times I would look away and he would shout "Be Boos" until I would look at the magazine. Boys will be boys! Hope everyone enjoyed the holidays.
