The World's Shortest Personality Test

It's a Whistle Train!

With Daddy out of town it was great timing for Cole to receive a care package from his Nana and Pop Pop Leonard for his 3rd birthday.Thank you! He was so excited to see the train and now is quite profeicent at blowing the whistle. He even know to blow it softly. He loves to play with the fire truck and after ella enjoyed her share of wrapping paper and dinosaur and was snug in her bed Cole begged for storytime early. With his new book from the care package, Ten Minutes to Bedtime , He took me by the hand and led me to his room. I read it five times and he was ready for bed. All at 7:30 PM.
Ella is trying to stand on her own. I caught her on film playing with her walker and standing. It also looks like Cole will have green eyes. Ella and Cole both have a check up with their new doctor next wednesday so I will have ella's nine month stats and Cole's 3 year stats. Chad will be home tonight and We all miss him bunches.

Look Who's Standing!

Wow Wee!
We have been a busy here in good ole Montana!
Debbie has been working 50 to 60 hours a week and Chad will soon be in the work force after some days of training at his new Salon/Spa, Sage.
Cole has made huge progress on the potty taining front. He now poops and pees in the potty on his own will and enjoys quailty "together time" with Daddy as Cole sits on his Potty chair as Daddy sits on his potty "Chair".
Cole rode his tricycle today under his own steam about 50 feet before giving up to the eaiser way to travel ... coasting on the back. Chad did get video of this and we love to share it.
Ella is now a crawling fiend and is working on her way to standing. She tries it on her own by placing her feet firmly on the ground and trying to pick her body up from and half bent over position. We have included pictures of our little rock star.

Did you get my good side?

Happy Father's Day

Well today's Father's Day concluded the cycle of stomach flu that has been going around our household. Daddy got it last. Mommy got it first, Tuesday and then Cole (Friday)... in the car of course then he insisted on eating so then again with a couch/toilet combo and a third time into a bucket ... and little baby Ella. She had it in her sleep(Friday Night early Saturday morning). She did not cry or make a sound. In fact she slept through the night. Quite unusual for her.

Cole, Daddy and Ella we to the museum of the Rockies today and had a fun time. Mommy of course had to work. No peace for the wicked.

We are all going to sleep early but just wanted to wish all the daddies out there.... Happy Father's Day.

Hi!

No Clouds and Tons of Rain

Cole and Daddy today got to play at the Children's museum today. Cole calls it Mobius that is the Spokane, WA version. Ella was very patient with them as Cole ran about and explored the area. Mommy had to work today. i have included Cole's recent Jam session , He is working hard at annoying the neighbors. Ella is enjoying her food. She really like the Mighty Kids cereal by kashi. It is shaped in the form of little people. So we joke that she is eating her people. Chad will be working soon as a massage therpist and Cole will certainly miss Daddy time. I will miss Daddy time. We hope to explore tommorow take in a hike if the weather permits. One thing about Montana ... Don't like the weather... wait five minutes. Lots of thunder storms and tons of rain to be followed by high temps and cloudless skies. Weird.

Wish I could bottle up this energy, I would be RICH!

Well I have worked three days and all is well. I have not completely lost it. It is hard being the "NEW" guy. Not with the customers but with the team. I am having fun getting to know everyone.
