Cole's New Room

As we eagerly await Helicopter-E's arrival in late January, we have done a lot of work preparing Cole's new room. This past weekend the accumulation of a lot of work has come to fruition and Cole officially moved in. The new room features newly painted walls, new big boy furniture and a bit more space. Cole seemed very pleased as he drifted off to sleep last night.

Here are some pics of the new room

New Awlins

Recently the entire family (including Oma) took a trip down to New Orleans, LA to celebrate Uncle Mark Daquipa's wedding. Cole, Momma, Daddy and Oma had a great time experiencing The Big Easy.

They took a city tour where they were able to view the wonderful history of the amazing city, take a Riverboat tour along the Mississippi River, enjoy hot chocolate and beignets at the historic Cafe Du Monde, travel around the city in the old street cars and enjoy Halloweem (see previous post) and the wedding. A lot was done in the four days we were visiting but we made the most of it and had a great time.

Below are some highlights

Pumpkin Patch and Halloween (in The Big Easy)

The month of October was a busy one for Cole and his family. Weeks were filled with fun activities at school where Cole has started "KinderSports" and is getting exposed to new sports each week - Soccer, Tennis, Baseball etc.

And weekends are filled with preparing for Cole's new brother to arrive. We are currently in the process of getting Cole's new room ready and will be painting soon.

Two big weekends in October were filled with the annual trip to Underwood Family Farms with friends to visit the pumpkin patch and then a few short weeks later the entire family headed to New Orleans for Uncle Mark Daquipa's wedding. While the wedding ceremony was on Halloween night it didn't stop the kids who were able to accompany their folks from getting some Trick or Treating in at the historic Columns Hotel.
