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.

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.


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!
