Max the Knight, Charlotte's Web and GG

Sometimes while I'm at school, I think Max might be dressing up in some of my costumes. I just get the feeling...

On Sunday, Connor and I got to go to Charlotte's Web in Topeka with GG, it was such a special day! It was all children who were in the play. We had a great time!

GG is here to stay with us while Mommy is out of town. Here's Peter Pan, I mean Max, and GG cuddling during story time.

And hiding in the laundry baskets before bed!

Valentine's Day

We had a fun Valentine's Day with Mommy and Daddy. We got these matching "Jakey jammies" (Jake and the Neverland Pirates) and Mommy made heart pancakes for her 3 boys. We had a family lunch date at Fortune Wok too after my Valentine party at school. I was also really excited about all the treats I got from my school friends!

Daddy made this Valentine for me, it's really funny. It says, "Cole, who wishes you the happiest Valentine's Day ever?" Then there are two flaps you lift. The one with the picture of Daddy says "yes" and the one with the picture of a mongoose says "no". Mongooses are sort of an inside joke with Daddy and me. I thought the card was hilarious!

Brushing teeth in our Jakey jammies.

Little Maxy does a good job doing trying to brush teeth all by himself and just needs a little help from Mommy and Daddy.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Valentine Playdate

We had a fun Valentine playdate with some buddies on Friday.

Mommy made these yummy candy cane suckers!

And these personalized felt hearts.`

Here are some of the cookies Mommy did, we got to make our own too!

These are the Valentines we made for our friends... it started because I really wanted to give them Zots candy... it's the candy that fizzes in your mouth and I think it's really cool. So we made these "firecrackers" and wrote, "You are my spark."

Yummy stuff! I wanted to add my gumball machine to the spread too. :)

Maxy with his valentine, Puppy.

Looking for our friends to arrive... oh, and I started the party as a pirate and ended it as Spidey as you will see later. :)

Making cookies!

Squeeze, Max!

Max, me, Reid, Cooper, Noah

The gang! What a fun time with our friends!

Awesome Ride at Legoland

GG Day!!

Last week GG came for a special GG Day! We had such a blast with her! We went to Legoland for the first time and then ate lunch at Spin. Then we came back and she read a story to us before naps.

Here we are at Legoland! It was awesome because we pretty much had the whole place to ourselves!

Maxy rode the lego giraffe...

And the puppy...

And here we are on the lego motorcycle! Max absolutely loves these sunglasses and takes them everywhere!

The wrecking ball was super awesome and I liked swinging on it!

Maxy and this lego girl were just about the same size! What a fun day! We love our GG!!

More Costumes!

A couple more costume creations we've made lately...

Jafar from Aladdin

And "Jakey" from Jake and the Neverland Pirates

I'm still all about the costumes, my favorite thing to do is dress up and play pretend!!

Dressing Up. Library Win and Home Depot

Another day, another costume. My brother, Max, might just like dressing up as much as I do. This was the costume of the day last week.

And then another cool costume we made over the weekend - Jafar, from Aladdin. Don't I look scary? (Notice the snake staff.) :) Mommy's creativity sure is challenged with all these costumes. Luckily Daddy found the "robe" for this one.

Another super cool thing... I won a prize at the library for guessing the number of rubberbands in a jar. I guessed 175 and there were 176. They called to congratulate me and said I had won a prize. We went to pick it up and it was M&M's and an activity book, so exciting!

On Saturday, Mommy took us to Home Depot for their kids workshop. It was our first one and it sure was fun! We made Valentine boxes. I hammered the nails all by myself!
