Cole and Cali in Ellinwood

I got to go to Ellinwood to see my great grandparents over Memorial Day Weekend! We had so much fun. Look here, I even got to play with my Uncle Chris and Auntie Jess's doggie Cali. I think she is really funny!

9 Months!

Here I am on my 9-month birthday! Mommy had to take the picture quick before I tried to eat the sign!

Maybe someday I'll get to wear big shoes like Daddy!

I got to play with my buddy, Reid, all day on my 9-month birthday! We had band practice with our shakers in the morning.

Then in the afternoon, we shot some hoops.

I had so much fun playing, Reid!

Pulling Up

Here's what I love to do these days - pull up on the coffee table! I'm not cruising yet, but I don't think it will be long!

My New Baby Cousin!

Here's my new baby cousin - Jack! Isn't he cute?! My Great-Grandpa Don and his Great-Grandpa Walt are brothers, so I think that makes us 3rd cousins. Jack's dad, Chris, is holding him and my daddy is holding me. I can't wait til Jack gets a little older and we can play together!

Here's Jack and his mom, Amy, with my mommy and me.

Chillin' in my jumper. I LOVE JUMPING!

Having Fun!

This is my favorite book to read with Daddy - Hop On Pop!

I can stand now! I can pull myself up in my crib now too. Daddy had to lower the crib to keep me from falling out!

I also like to stand while holding onto my "Cole" bench.

Here's me and my Mommy on Mother's Day. We sure had a good day together!

Standing Up and Funny Noise

Mommy and Daddy help me stand up. The best part of this video is the end, though, when I make a funny breathing noise with my nose. I make this noise a lot. It cracks Mommy and Daddy up.

First Crawl!

This is my first day of crawling on May 2, 2009. My GranJan had me crawl toward my pastry brush and ball - two of my very favorite toys! You should see me now. I am even faster at crawling. One of my other favorite things to crawl toward is Murphy's chew stick. I like to grab it and put it in my mouth. Mommy and Daddy think it's yucky, but I like it!

I Can Crawl!!

Look at this determination! I can crawl and I'm going to crawl to you, Mommy!

I am so proud of myself now that I can crawl!

Here I am in motion. Mommy and Daddy got video of me that I need to post to my blog!

I had a great weekend with GranJan and Poppy! Daddy was out of town, so Mommy and I hung out with my GranJan and Poppy all weekend! They saw me crawl for the first time too!!
