Daddy Stuff: Playin' trucks

Sometimes I play trucks with Cole.  

Holy Cow, not nearly as well as Daddy does it!  

Little did I know all that went into playin' trucks!?

Daddy is WAY better at this.

AND, the space between the couch cushions makes a great ravine to rescue your 'guy' from.

Corbin & Carter

The Lange's welcomed Carter Daniel to the world on February 8, 2010, his Daddy's birthday!  Cole and I joined some friends to visit the expanded family.

Carter is beautiful, content, and makes the most adorable noises! 

Cole LOVED playing with Corbin and all of Corbin's toys!  

I loved the time with the girls.  

I love any time with the girls.  

I missed going to DiCarlo's and Lau Nae with them, but I loved the choice to spend the day with my little guy.

Cole and Corbin had lots of fun...with the bathroom sink.  It turned into a wet-shirt mess!  All in the name of little-boy-good-times.

Cheri makes it look easy.  

She is a natural.  

Her easy-going, laid-back, perfect mom-to-two-of-the-cutest-little-boys style is awesome.  

I am so glad to have her as my friend and soul mate.

 Don't forget that Cole loved Corbin and Corbin's toys.

Goofy Boy Stuff.

Girl Talk.

Baby Loving, Holding, Smelling, Talking, Cooing.

Lovely Loviness.

 

To top the day off I attempted to bribe Cole with a Happy Meal but had to drag him out of Corbin's house kicking and screaming anyway we ended with a Happy Meal.  

All that good-timin' left Cole WORN OUT!  

He fell asleep mid-fry.

We had a really great day.

So handsome

He and his daddy both look extraordinarily cute in this hat.

I am smitten with both of them.

Sink Bath

Taking a bath in the kitchen sink is cool for so many reasons:

 

- you get clean, obviously

- you can make up songs with awesome lyrics like "scrub, scrub, scrub...." along with a 'dance.'

 - new 'bath toys'

- because time is running out before you completely outgrow sink baths.

This last point might make your mama kinda sad. Just so you know....

Jobs

We all have our jobs.  Phoebe and Lita hold down the fort at home while we are away. 

Derek does genius things with DNA.  He does things with science that will help prevent and cure for illness and disease.  These things are far beyond my imagination and ability to understand.

Cole goes to Jessica's house where he learns about social skills, counting, colors, pottying, and much more!

I spend my days with adults who have mental illness.  It's never dull and I work for an awesome agency and with amazing people.

 Phoebe and Lita have it really rough though, right?
