Well I had big plans for a big "salute to Cole" post on his actual day of birth...April 7th. See that guy on the left, the VERY 2 year old....he foiled those plans, all day long!
It was a toss up between coloring with a pen mind you-all over his body, the phone, the computer keyboard and part of a wall OR taking a completely new tube of "My Friends Tigger and Pooh" berry bubblegum toothpaste and SLATHERING it all over Thomas, numerous other unfortunate trains, train tracks, train table, my bedroom carpet, AND my white comforter, yes, white. All the while this guy:
We used his reading coupon from school for a delicious and nutritious lunch at Pizza Hut. Enjoyed Spaghetti at the 'Ole Spaghetti Factory for dinner, and topped it all off around 8:30 with chocolate pie with creamy pudding frosting.
Cole has always been such a sweet and easy going kid. Big brown eyes and round cheeks from the get go. He's the patient little brother who has put up with A LOT from his Jedi master older partner in crime.
He can fall asleep anywhere.
sat transfixed to the tv in all his Birthday Wii glory. That's what I get for thinking I could be on the treadmill for 30 peaceful minutes and have given Lego Star Wars to the birthday boy just wee minutes prior. "Uh mom, Bwody made a mess on yo bed with the toothpaste."-No eye contact while this was said.
Oh well, it is all clean now. Nothing like detailing wooden trains with a Qtip to pass the time!
On to the BIRTHDAY BOY.....

Happy belated birthday, Mr. Cole! Don't you love how kids are totally oblivious to their siblings' mischief? Sometimes I'm more upset at the older one than the actual culprit! I'm glad it all got cleaned up. Could have been permanent marker, right? Pretty bedspread. Great photos. You have adorable kids.
P.S. Love your shout out to Parent Trap on my blog. I bet our girls were buddies in heaven. :)
We love Mr. Cole!! Happy Happy Birthday to our awesome cousin that's 5!! Love the photo montage for all seasons!!

What a darling little stinker you have there...good for you to find the humor instead of going crazy.
Happy Birthday to your adorable little man.
Oh and have you heard of windows live writer? Google it and you can download fast and for free. I have found that it is the BEST way to blog. It helps especially when it comes to picture size and placement and you can do a post in half the time...just thought I'd pass on the info in case you didn't already know about it.
What a fun read! I can't believe he's five. Where does the time go? Talk to you soon!
Happy Birthday - five is a big year - one of the best!!
Happy birthday, Cole! Sorry we didn't get to see you on THE day- but soon, I'm sure. Looks like quite the day!
Glad the white is still white, Brody is still Brody and you have one of the bestest five year olds that we know!
Happy Birthday to you, Cole! April 7 is by far the best day in the WHOLE ENTIRE YEAR to be born on. Only the very smartest, most beautiful/handsome, and everything else that is wonderful people are born on that day! You should give your mom props for her impeccable timing!
