Cole & Tyler

To mark Cole's 6 week birthday, Cole and I went to visit Tyler (8 months old) and Michelle this past Friday. It was our first outing that was over 15 minutes away. Cole was great. Once we got there we went on a long walk through Michelle's neighborhood. The weather was beautiful and the scenery was nice. We stopped at a play ground along the way where Tyler had a blast acting like Superman on his first swing ride. Cole slept the whole way. We are having so much fun.

Our little All Star

Cole is growing up so fast. Each day he seems to do something new. Every morning he has "mat" time where he plays under a little play mat that has hanging toys. Up until yesterday he would just look at the toys hanging inches away from his face and never attempt to touch them. Yesterday was a new day. He decided to reach out and give them a jolt. He hit one that jingled and thought that was so cool, he kept swinging his arms to hit others too. It only lasted a minute or two but it was really neat. He's working on his eye-hand coordination and is already our little All Star.

Cole & Jasmine

Our friends Jeremy & Marianne had their baby girl, Jasmine, just a couple of weeks after we had Cole. She is such a cutie. They came to visit us yesterday and I think it was the first time the two kiddos actually saw each other. The first time they met, their eyes were closed the whole time. Cole and I look forward to going to play-dates with Marianne and Jasmine very soon. Cole and Jasmine look like two peas in a pod in this picture.

Do you see what EYE see?

Have you ever wondered what eye color your child's eyes will be? Well, Donny and I have been trying to guess Cole's eye color since he was born. Donny found this web site that will calculate the percentage of a particular eye color given your family's eye color. Check it out.

Tell us what you think. Will Cole's eyes be blue, green or brown? We can't wait to find out.

What a wonderful Christmas!

Look what we got for Christmas! I just wanted to share some more pics of Cole. He stole our hearts the day he was born.

What a blessing!

November 30,2007 was one of the best days of our lives. Donny and I got to finally meet our precious son, Cole. He was born a healthy 7lbs 11oz and 20 inches long. He is an answer to many prayers and a blessing from God. Since then we have enjoyed watching every expression he makes as he grows. He is now a month old and boy how the time has flown.
