Must be tough...

...to be a kid these days! I don't recall having the luxury of headphones and movies in the car when I was little. We just played made-up games or sang along with the radio. Cole on the other hand, doesn't know how to just ride in the car, even for a mile. Regardless of where we are going or how long we are going to be in the car, the first thing he asks for is his headphones and a movie. One afternoon, I decided to stop and grab a few pictures of him chilling in the back!

A "Zoo"tiful Day

The past few weekends have felt like Spring and we have been loving it. Even though I am not totally ready to throw on a swimsuit, I do enjoy the samples of warmer weather that we have been receiving lately.
Our family has tried to do as much as we could outside before the cold came back again. One of our outings was to the zoo with our neighbors. It was so much fun and such a beautiful day to be outside! Below are just a few of our pictures...

Cole's New Love

I thought it was bad enough that one of my boys had interest in girls, but both is so much worse. Chase's friend has a little sister, Whitley, that Cole is totally crazy about. Every time we pick Chase up from school or her mom is on carpool duty picking Chase up from the house, Cole has to know see Whitley. He gets all shy and smiley whenever she is around...it is just so cute!

The other week, I got the pleasure of keeping her at my house for a little while. Cole loved having her around!

Hugging again (I promise he isn't hurting her even though it looks like he has her in a chokehold)
