July Pictures





Hey friends! Things couldn't be better around here. We are just totally in love with our son - sweet Cole Thai (or as my mom affectionately calls him "King Cole"). He is SO much fun. Cole is walking all over the place now and is talking quite a bit. He is our little smarty. Right now he loves to bring you books to read to him - his favorite are going though all of the animal sounds. I hope you enjoy the new pics!

Your Requests Have Been Heard!!





OK Tracy, Sheri, Mary Jane...etc...etc... I am FINALLY posting an update!! Ha ha! We are doing great! Cole has been cracking us up every day and he is learning SO fast we can hardly believe it. He is saying ma ma, da da, dog, waving, claping, and yes, trying to walk! He has taken a few steps between Dusty and I so I will really not be long before he just takes off. We have been playing with our friends a lot, going to story time at the library, meeting dad for lunch and right now he is really getting into having us read him books. Cole eats like a champion (so he fits into our family well) eating anything and everything! His favorite food is grilled cheese - just like his aunt Ali. He loves the water, so we are looking forward to the rain stopping so we can swim at GG's house. We are really excited that Ethan (Cole's cousin) has started saying "Tole Thai". Cole spent last weekend at Grandma's house while Dusty and I went to my 10 year reunion (yikes - 10 years!) and he had a LOT of fun. We felt like he grew so much in the two days we were gone. Ha! Well, we hope you guys are doing great!! Here are some pictures from our play dates with Zak and Dylan.

No Place Like Home!




Back a week and just now writing - OOPS!! I am sure you understand. There are no words to describe how incredible this entire experience has been. We are just blown away. We were ecstatic to be home - our own beds, our own shower, our moms to cook for us, and friends bringing meals...it is awesome! Cole LOVES being home. When we first walked in the door and started showing him around he just had the biggest smile and started bouncing up and down in my arms - he new we were home at last. He loves to be able to play on the carpet with all of his toys. He has adjusted so great. It took him a little to get his sleep schedule switched, but the last three nights have been great. We are so proud of him. He is a cuddler, which mom and dad love and he has really had fun meeting anyone and everyone. He is crawling all over the place and is pulling up to stand at the coffee table, couch, mom's legs everywhere, etc. I will be organizing some more pictures and will post soon!

I was looking though our pictures today and I was actually missing Vietnam! It was such a different place and incredible trip that a piece of me is sad to have left. I think we will always have a small longing for Vietnam - the country that brought our son Cole Thai. We cannot wait to take him back some day to see it.
