Seriously---

I never seem to have anything to update and I need to upload pictures so at least I can show you how beautiful my son and husband are.... I mean they always have been but they get better looking by the day! I am really liking our house in Nappanee, it will be even better when spring comes and we paint. I have a question.... what are good indicators on when to move a toddler to a big kid bed? I need to think about painting his nursery like we had it in our Muncie house or moving his room farther down the hall to his big boy bed....I need help any pointers!

Wow.... a month already...

It has been awhile....
Well, for starters we have moved out from behind my parents house (we lived in the barn which is actually part living area (cabin feel) and part full length basketball court ) and moved to Nappanee. WE are now renting (from my parents) a house that they bought and gutted and remodeled and decided they didn't want to rent to someone who would trash it. So, we are living there. It is nice it is three bedroom and everything is new. All that is left is painting color on the walls, we will probably wait until spring to open all the windows and ventilate! We still have our house in muncie which is why were are not buying another house here. It is still being rented so that is a blessing!
Cole is lots of fun and loves time when he gets to wrestle and roughhouse with his dad. He loves to play trucks and drives them all over the house and makes wonderful truck noises! Cody and I are enjoying life but nothing is new with us besides the move and we are parenting a child not a a baby which is fun and scary. Well, my big man just woke up from a nap!

It's about time for an update....

Well, in the past 3 weeks we have been to the park a few times thanks to the nice weather.
We had 2 funerals in one week (cody's grandpa and my uncle).
We have celebrated 5 years of marriage! We stayed at a hotel in South Bend and paid quite a bit of money to be able to SLEEP!!!
We found out that we have another niece or nephew in the oven (that makes our first niece due in Jan and the next baby due in May)
We celebrated Thanksgiving with Cody's sisters and parents.
We have learned that Cole freaks out when we turn on the fireplace and keeps waing his hands in the air saying, "ooohhhhhh" which is what he does when something is hot and he is not supposed to touch it, and it is quite comical!
I think that is the main events that have happened in the past few weeks. Enjoy the pictures!

*** oh yeah can someone tell me how to make my page look cute with a picture at the top of my site?

We went to the Pumpkin patch and Cole was not really interested in the pumpkins, Go Figure. We did enjoy watching him run around!

There were goats at the pumpkin patch and he did not like them at all which is surprising he loves animals.... Cole loves to throw rocks in the pond, even though he really shouldn't because they are pretty landscaping rocks, he is so entertained by the splashes. I ,however, get so nervous because he does not fear the water at all. It is hard to play outside because he heads right to the ponds. It did make for some fun sction shots.....

Cole is all dressed in a fall outfit and I thought he looked so big....so I had to take a picture

Keep a diaper on your baby at all times.....

**What do you do when you find that the toilet overflows.... you run to find the plunger.

**What do you do with your naked baby squatting on the floor playing with your make up bag while you need to get a plunger from across the hall.... you shut him in the bathroom and run to get the plunger.

** What do you find when you get back.... a naked baby still squatting playing with your make up bag with a pile of poop under his booty.

This is the second time he has pooped while getting in or out of the shower... I need to get faster at clothing my son.
