Opening day.. continued.. Ok so they hooked 5 and kept 2. Logan got to reel in both. Then "beat their brains out". SUCH a boy. This is his new favorite thing.

Opening Day!

Tomorrow is opening day of lake fish season.. or whatever it's called. This is the first year that Jeremy is going to take Logan out. He's actually going to take him out on Sunday, since he has to work tomorrow OT baby! They bought a new boat and Logan can't wait to go fishing with his daddy and his BFF Jared. Pictures to follow.. to be continued

So sad..

So we've been anxiously waiting for our baby calf to be born. Well when Jeremy was gone last week our cow had her baby, but I didn't know. We have no idea what happened, but she died. So sad. I guess it's silly to be upset over a cow, but I am. :o( Maybe next year?

Boy or Girl..

So the anticipation is killing me... We'll find out the first week in June. A whole month and a half away. I'm so anxious.... Will it be Zane Douglas or Avery Elizabeth?

Beach....and Sun?

So anticipating the forcasted 65 degree weather on Saturday, we decided to go to the beach. It was the most beautiful day I've ever experienced at a beach in Washington! I think it ended up around the 70's in Westport, which is where we went.

So we packed up the dogs

And the kid

and set out around 9:30.

We fixed up the kite and tried flying that around.... let's just say, we are not professional kite flyers.. but it was fun!

Keep trying!

OK.. Mom's turn

It doesn't look like it from the FABULOUS pictures I forced Jeremy to take.. but I did way better than he did.

Jeremy and Logan wondered around looking for sanddollars and watched the guys surf fishing.

I followed my stupid dog around, since she kept pooping.. I swear she pooped like 10 times... Logan and I played by the surf. At this time we were still trying NOT to get wet. He's so funny.. He'd run so fast trying to get away.. then keep on running.


Now, you can't take a 2.5 year old to the beach on a sunny day and NOT get wet. It's just impossible. But he had a blast. It was a slow progression from sweatshirt, jeans and boots to just a t-shirt.

OH no! My butt cracked out!

He was searching for sand shrimp and at the same time having a mud/sand throwing contest with his dad.. Guess who won?

DADDY WINS!!!!!

Hmm.. Baby's hungry...

LUNCH!

Logan..

I have a feeling I'll be posting lots of these little "funnies". My kid is just a charactor.. So Saturday we went out to dinner to Farelli's. As soon as we walk in, Logan runs and does a sliding stop on his knee's and yells, "WOO HOO!" The whole place stops and starts laughing at him. Jeremy and I of course are DYING. I swear my face was BRIGHT red. Oh well it's funny and that's just Logan.. Here I am! Life of the party.

We sit down and order and are just hanging out enjoying each other's company... and Logan notices a little girl in the booth behind us. So he starts up again. He's chit chatting and telling her stories.. talking about baseballs and whatnot.. Then he goes, "Hey girl, I have a hot tub at my house." He said it like, "Hey come on over to my house.. I have a hot tub." I thought I would die.. I was crying from laughing so hard. Of course this just encourages him so when the cute little waitress comes over, he gives her the same line. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree I suppose....

Oh the things kids say...

So I just have to share this... Logan is just in the beginning stages really of potty training.. really he has not much desire in going in the potty except to get candy or a treat from Ammy... Anyway, yesterday at his grandma's (Ammy) she had him in his big boy boxer breifs.. which I have to say are the cutest damn things I've every seen, and he was outside with his grandpa. He came running up to the house and knocked on the door yelling, "AMMY AMMY HELP!" So my mom opened the door and saw that he had wet his pants. She asked him what was wrong and why he wet his pants. He said, "Ammy I pee'd my pants, cause the GIANT ANTS were chasing me!" I mean what's a kid to do when giant ants are chasing him... Oh I love that kid.

Where to start? The begining?

So here's a bit of background.... Jeremy and I bit the bullet and made it legal on August 31, 2002. Almost immediately we started the planning process on construction of our home. We were the general contractors, and let me tell you it was a lot of work. It is so true what "they" say, if you can build together you can do anything together. Our poor neighbors and my Uncle Pat, who were out there everyday with us heard some classic Cole fights during that period of time. My Uncle still laughs at us. I believe one time I threw a shovel at Jeremy all the way across the yard. FUN!

So I guess we were bored after all the excitement, so we decided to try to get pregnant. It's almost like we've had this check list... get married - Check! Build a house - Check! Have baby - Check!

Logan Keith Cole was born on September 11, 2005 at 6:48am. He is the best thing to ever happen to us. He is a mini Jeremy. Has Jeremy's personality and ornery attitude.

We took some time to get used to our new life as responsible adults.. it was a shocker that's for sure! We spent some time working at the farm, had a baby horse, had some puppies, bought some cows, built alot of fence, and fixed our yard...

Now we are excited for our 2nd baby.. this one should arrive sometime between Deer and Elk Season... I'm due October 26th. So cross your fingers that this one is one time as well, or Jeremy might actually have to miss part of Elk Camp!
