Cole 20 Months, Alexis 40 Months

We had a fun month and were able to participate in many activities.  Cole and Alexis are growing up so fast.  I know everyone says that but it is true.  I wanted to take a minute to document some cute and funny things they say...

Alexis
Norm of the North (Movie on Amazon Prime):  North to the North
Uh-ho Spaghetti O: Uh-ho Spaghetti Dough
Back Pack:  Pack Pack
Sore throat: Throw up Hurts

Alexis is so articulate and I forget she is only 3.  She loves singing songs she makes up, playing with the toy kitchen food, feeding and putting her babies to bed, being pushed on the swing, watching out for Cole (No Cole...that is too small for you to play with, No Cole stay out of the kitchen, No Cole that is my baby:)  She is very sweet and loves to be tickled.  She loves reading her books in her room and playing with her people. (Little People and her Sesame Street finger puppets).  She also loves when Daddy plays people with her and makes them say and do funny things. 

Cole
Watery:  Water
Cole is learning more words everyday.  He loves to say "cracker" and stick his hand out from his car seat as soon as we get in the car.  He loves the word "No" (See above, wonder where he learned it).  Cole loves to cuddle when he drinks his milk when he first wakes up from a nap or in the morning.  He holds on to my shirt like it is a blanket.  He has the best laugh.  He likes playing with his cars and reading.  He has learned to say "again" when I finish reading a book before bedtime.

Some fun pictures from the last month.

 Petting Zoo.  Cole hung out a bit longer than Alexis.
 This $9 beer  never tasted so good.  We went to the rodeo on the second day.  It was also field trip day so there were like a million kids.  
 Alexis's favorite part was the bunny exhibit. They had 20+bunnies to look at in their glass cages and she was able to pet one
 Ok Mom I will stand next to this pig for a picture
 Cole fell asleep in the stroller. 
 He just looks so innocent...but he is up to something
 Fun family day at the strawberry patch.  Attended with my workout group
 Cheese

 How cute are his little dinosaur boots
 Alexis and Jasmine
 Strawberries


 We planned to meet a few mom's at the zoo. Turns out it was also field trip day.  They were expecting over 2000 kids.  This really is my luck:)  So we decided to take the train ride around the park next to the zoo.  Play at the playground and have lunch.  It was a beautiful day and we had so much fun.
 Lunch by the lake
 Swinging with our friends
 We had a warm day so we enjoyed the water table, hose and playing in our pull-up

 Cole loves cleaning.  After every meal he wants his wash cloth so he can wipe the floor or table. He also loves vacuuming and helping me take the trash out.  I am documenting this so when he is a teenage I have proof he knows how to clean:)
Yep...looks good

We had a super busy and fun month.
