We try to not only survive around here, but thrive. However, a week ago Will and I had Hand, Foot and Mouth disease, so we moved back into plain old "survival mode" for a few days. But other than that, life is really treating us well. Being outside as much as possible makes us all happier. Here are some pictures to tell the story of our lives better than I can with words.

Kathy had a beautiful baby boy last month, which means that all 4 of us Cole sisters all had a baby within 1 year and 1 week. This is a picture of 3 of us with our babies, but we need another pic with Rosey. And Rosey can you send me the picture we took at Kathy's baby shower? Anyway, it is just great to have sisters. And I call Max (baby on the right) "Big Head Kid", for obvious reasons. They are all so cute! |

I cannot get over how cute Will is with his little helmet on! Bike rides are a BIG HIT around here. If you ask Will if he wants to go on a bike ride, he will get VERY excited and crawl as fast as he can to the closet where our bike helmets are, open the door of the closet and reach for the helmets. It is adorable. |

So far, this bike seat has been perfect. It was pretty cheap on Sears.com if anyone's interested. |

Will and his Aunt Risa. They are buddies. |
 |
This was during our bout with Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease. Will had blisters on his face, hands, legs, feet and bum. They were worse on his hands and his fingers are still peeling. |
 |
We tried to get a good picture of his poor little hands. It just broke my heart to see his hands so blistered! They didn't really seem to bug him, though, thank goodness! |

Will is currently in love with his firetruck. He can only push himself backwards in it. Don't ask me why. If you push him forwards, he moves his little feet like he's doing it himself, but then you let go and he doesn't do anything... |
 |
And the swings are pretty much the highlight of Will's life. He loves them. Doesn't he have the cutest smile? This is on Easter Sunday. He was pretty much in heaven. And surprisingly, he loved wearing that hat. He cried when I took it off. He wasn't a big fan of having the strings attached around his chin, but he loved it otherwise. |
