HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Since this was Cole's very first Thanksgiving, it was a special day for Paul and I. Wednesday night we drove out to Aunt Debbie and Uncle Peter's house, stayed the night, and woke up Thursday morning with many many thanks.

Of course Aunt Debbie's Thanksgiving meal was phenomenal! Mom of course set the table that looked like Kings and Queens were going to feast on!! We had dessert with my family down in Torrance. Velma had her beautiful array of food and desserts that Paul and I gladly feasted on :) We couldn't of wished for a more perfect day.

It was a perfect Thanksgiving.

R-O-L-L-I-N-G O-V-E-R

Cole rolled over for the first time Thursday afternoon, and has been doing it ever since.
Learning I first walked at only 9 months, and Paul at 10.. I expected Cole to follow in his parents footsteps. Lord help us all when that day comes!!! I think this one is going to be just like his Dad. haha

JUST HANGIN OUT!

HAPPY ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY!

Amazing how time flies! Its already been one year.. and what a great year its been :)

We celebrated by relaxing at the house with Cole, then had a nice dinner at Tony's on the Pier.. went down stairs and opened a couple of oysters. We were lucky to get two black pearls that Paul had put into a heart shaped necklace for me. Then picked the baby up.. came home and watched our wedding video, and toasted with our champagne flutes!
It was a perfect way to toast to the commitment we made to one another a year ago, and our accomplishments since then.

KINGS GAME...

Box Style!!!! Aunt Debbie and Uncle Peter were nice enough to invite us to a Kings Game. Of course it was only the best of the best!!!! Of course Paul had to hope that the Dallas Stars would win, so all night him and I were going back and forth.. being typical Paul and Sheena!!!!

It was a awesome game, and we enjoyed every part of it!! Thanks for taking us along Aunt Deb and Uncle Peter ;)

FIRST GIGGLES

I started this Wednesday morning just as every other Wednesday morning. Let the dogs outside, poured a cup of coffee, and stuck Cole's morning bottle in the microwave. I walked to his nursery, and of course was greeted by his warm " GOOD MORNING MOMMY" smiles that just melt my heart. His smile is truly the most beautiful thing in this world.. at least to me!!!!

I picked him up from his crib and laid him on the changing table, asking him if he had good dreams. As I was finishing, I kissed him on his neck and told him how much I missed him throughout the night. As I lifted my head, I heard his very first giggle. I was absolutely thrilled. Making sure it wasn't just my imagination, I started in on my " was that you Cole Michael.."??? and again, giggles.

So although today started off as any other ordinary day, it definitely turned out much differently. Marking each first in his baby book, and on this blog, I am happy to mark this day, as the first day our Cole Michael giggled!!!!!

BUMBO TIME!

Passed out from working so hard!!!


I have religiously put Cole on his tummy for about 20 to 30 minutes everyday.. and this last week I started to put him in his Bumbo seat, which helps strengthen his back muscles to help him sit properly. Its amazing how much he learns each day! I am truly enjoying moment he discovers something new, and learns a new trick. I take a lot of pictures throughout the day so Paul is able to watch the progress while he is gone!

HALLOWEEN CELEBRATION!

We had a great Halloween Party Saturday night!!! The pictures can say the rest.. haha

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NICOLE!

Unfortunaetly Paul and I missed Nikki's birthday this year because we had our Halloween party the same night, but we kept her close to heart.. and sent much love, and best birthday wishes her way. We love you Nikki <3
