A baby will make love stronger, days shorter, nights longer,
bankroll smaller, home happier, clothes shabbier,
the past forgotten, and the future worth living.
Here are the birthday photos of Cole with his mama and daddy. I didn’t get to NC for the celebration, but was there in spirit. Just imagine, three cakes.
Knitting, writing and other joys 
Cute kid!
Do they still live in Wilmington?
Cole is the most bubbly and lively chap. He keeps us on our toes. He has started to walk. He is a little teetery but he gets where he needs to go. (And a lot of places he shouldn’t.)
Cole’s other grandparents are farmers in southern Indiana. John Deere is all they use. My wife being the “Farmers Daughter” has passed the green and yellow down. He loves all his farm stuff and yes even his Case tractor his grandmother Misegades put in his tackle box she gave him. It is displayed in his room. Be it green and yellow or flambeau red he likes them all.
Cole’s Daddy.
Absolutely! What a cutester! Amazing how fast time flies and he’s already almost a whole year old.
PS did I tell you Xander might have been a Cole? that’s my grandmothers maiden name. I named Allison for my other grandmothers maiden name. She had it in the running for his name for a while.
Oh yeah, He is a cutie. Grandmas always get to say that. Just like I say Xander is the cutest. Wait til he is running away when you chase him. Those little legs can move quickly. Those kisses and hugs are good too.
Xander is 16 months, Just a bit older. He has his own caps but always wants to get his daddy’s work cap.
Yes, not only is he ‘the cutest’ but also one of the most beautiful little boys ever.
Happy Birthday to Cole this month!
He is the most adorable baby ever. Such a beautiful face.
AWWW. . . what a cutie pie!
He is adorable! My sister’s grandson Riley would approve of the cap – he’s ALL John Deere!
