Adorable bath picture!

Timmy and Kristen can now take baths together. They have so much fun!

Our niece Rachael had her First Communion this past weekend. She was beautiful. Congratulations Rachael!
This is my sister's bike. While it looks like there are several bikes here, there is only one in the photo. There is a special seat attached to the front, then a back attachment that basically turns it into a 2 seater bike, and then the trailer which can hold 2 kids. Wow, it's practically a bus!

Kristen Elsie Cole: The First Year

I made this slideshow for Kristen's first birthday party. I know it's over a year old now, but I thought I would share it. There are so many pictures on here of Timmy from birth so I thought this would be a nice way to share pictures of Kristen from birth. I hope you enjoy!

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter! We had a wonderful Easter at the Cole household. Last week Kristen participated in her first Easter egg hunt. She had a great time and looked adorable in the process. Timmy wasn't quite up for the egg hunt, but he was there to cheer Kristen on.

On Easter we started the day off by going to Mass. Then we came home and Kristen had her own private egg hunt in the backyard. The Easter bunny knows her well and left her eggs filled with Little People figures, she was very excited to open them. After that we headed over to Grandma and Grandpa Tobin's house for an Easter pageant and dinner. We had a great time.

All of the kids checking out their stashes. Don't worry, I got to Timmy before he actually got any of those rocks in his mouth.

Easter Day, after the egg hunt in our backyard

Mary and Kristen during the Easter Pageant. They were angels.

After a long day of fun, Kristen changed into her sleeper and snuggled her baby cousin Bridget.

Here is Timmy being the happy boy he is.

Happy April

Drool: Check

Red Cheeks: Check

Someone is teething! We still haven't had a tooth break through the skin yet, but we know we are close.

It doesn't matter how we lay him down in the crib for his naps, he invariably pivots and sticks his foot out the slats. During his night sleep he doesn't move nearly as much.
Kristen loved wearing her hair in pigtails. Unfortunately, she hated the process of getting her hair in the pigtails, so this won't be a regular look for her. I think she looks awfully cute though.

Definitely not the most flattering picture of me, but this is the best way I can think of to spend a lazy Saturday morning. I am one lucky mommy.

Kristen joined us and the morning got even better!
