cole & poppy

while in nj, cole got to spend time with gram and poppy. he has become a big time poppy's boy. as soon as we pulled into the drive way he started to scream "pop". as soon as he wakes in the morning here he yells "pop". all day every day here it's "pop".

olivia kaylee

unfortunately this past week when we went for our big ultrasound they were unable to tell us the babys gender 100%. initially, they said it's a girl but then took it back. if you know me well you know that drove me crazy. i already had bedding options picked and needed to know the gender so i could start planning! if that wasn't bad enough the doctor told me we would have to wait 12 more weeks to find out. i was so stressed out. finally brad and i decided to save his sanity, i would go to nj and have an elective u/s done. so now we know... it's a GIRL. this is our little olivia kaylee.

photo sessions

today cole went with me to a photo session, that we i had with some friends. he had a good time exploring the park and flirting with all of the girls. he was kept quite busy by the swings too, which was nice because then i didn't have to worry about where he was running off too!

sliding

mr. adventurer has always been hesitant about slides. on the rare occasions we have been able to get him to go down one he flips over on his belly and holds on for dear life. today though he conquered his slide fear. he has finally started going down the slide all by himself!

potty training

we've been working on some potty training. some days cole has interest other days not so much. today he used the potty four times though and we are so proud! while walking around he felt the need to put his hat on and grab his bag. he kept heading to the door to say bye bye.

beach day!

we took cole to the beach today, ocean grove beach of course! he was a little hesitant about the waves, but had fun splashing and playing in the sand. next summer we really have to take him more!

wedding!

today was my first solo wedding as a photographer! it was a great day and such a beautiful wedding. we know the couple and cole even came along. however, this cupcake table about killed me and cole! i couldn't keep up with keeping cole away from the cupcakes and cole was going to end up in a sugar coma!
