Anniversary, Baby Shower, and Clive Cussler Books


Cole has begun an obsession with Clive Cussler books.  We don't mind as he is our favorite author, but he is constantly taking the books off the bookshelf and filling up containers with them as if to haul them away for himself.

Cole also likes toiletries and carrying them around.  This is slowly coming to an end because he is figuring out how to get lids off and choking hazards/poisoning is an issue, so we are ready for meltdowns.  We haven't let him carry them around too often, but for some odd reason they soothe him.  This is the day of our anniversary he carried these around.  He was all dressed up, but did not behave well in the Olive Garden due to his cold.  It was an ok time...he usually does much better.  We also got completely horrible service, but at least we didn't have to do dishes:).

NOT A PREGNANT PIC:).  Note to all of you who may think so!  I like my side view better than my front....too wide:).  Me before my friend, Kellie's, shower yesterday.  I hardly ever get dressed up with full makeup and all so I thought it would be good to get a picture:).

Kellie and myself at her shower!  Her baby, Nate, will be here in just a few weeks!  We are so happy for them!

Another Clive Cussler book moment.  Handing a book to Daddy.

Hoarding the Clive Cussler books in his toy bin and reading one upside down.

Checking out the books he just brought in to Daddy..."Oh, Sacred Stone, I like this one!"
Cole has a bad cold.  We are going to the doctor tomorrow.  He has a nasty hacking cough and maybe an ear infection.  His colds hardly ever have fevers, but this one carried one for several days.  He seems ok with the fever now, but we need to get that cough and those ears checked.  Poor guy.  He's cutting a molar and at least 2 eye teeth as well...

Oh, just keep the empty containers...clean them really good, and fill them up with water. Without the caps of course....then Cole can have his obsession to walk around with and you cna skip those melt downs. :) He is so cute Candice---he has a fantastic smile!!

Oh, and you look great in the "before baby shower" picture...although I have to say it looks like one of the early-before the belly--belly pictures. I got all excited thinking you were making a big announcement. :)
