Cole turned two!

Here's the birthday boy:
At his two year check up, Cole moved himself up into the 14th percentile in weight, and 77th percentile in height. Because he has moved up, there are no worries according to the pediatrician, and he looks like a healthy, skinny boy.
He got a Hot Wheels trike for his birthday, which he calls his motorcycle and thoroughly enjoys pushing the buttons on it. He loves cars, robots ("robop" is what he calls his new R2D2 toy), and sword fights. He talks more and more every day and has really exploded in personality. He and his sister alternately love each other and fight like the siblings they are. The best is when they are making each other laugh.
Tessa wasn't going to have the camera out without getting in on the action. Plus, I wanted to get her in her Vacation Bible School shirt. She attended the week long camp at a local church with a couple of friends and had a fantastic time. They did a lot of crafts --which is right up her alley.
We invited a couple of friend families over for birthday dessert and had a nice, low key celebration. Cole had a good time chasing people with his foam sword.

Yum! Chocolate birthday dessert and Cheetos with friends. Seriously, what else do you need?
Happy Birthday, Bubby. Oh, the joy you've added to our lives! Love you so much.

So glad you aren't worried about his weight anymore...whew! It was so fun to talk to Jake at the funeral, but we got interrupted before we finished our conversation. Please tell him I'm sorry! I really wanted to catch up with him and I was telling him how I feel like you are a dear friend even though we have only met a few times. That's the beauty of blogs:)
