Poor Cole

We joke that since Cole is the 2nd child he is ignored more often and has to "suck it up" more than Annabelle did. Part of that seems true just because we can't give him our undivided attention like we could with Annabelle but we do our best to give both kids all the attention and love that they need. When Annabelle would reach each milestone we would have it posted for all the world to see almost as it was happening. Poor Cole - his accomplishments are posted but usually after the fact. Last week Cole got his 5th tooth. It is the top left tooth so pretty soon he will not have fangs anymore! He also has started using a sippy cup at supper time. He really seems to like it although I think he is getting his other front tooth and likes to chew on it. He is also a little mobile - no he isn’t crawling yet but he is rolling around everywhere! He really enjoys laying on the floor and wiggling around. It is so much fun to watch him do some of these things. Annabelle hated being on her tummy and never just rolled around the floor or really learned to crawl like most babies. It almost gives Cole something special, he is the first child we have that has done some of these things. I think we have continued to do a good job of raising our kids in a positive house. Annabelle’s first word was yeay and every time Cole does something (like roll over or finish his food) Annabelle will say “Yeay Cole!” Hopefully we can make that one of his first words, although I am thinking it will be either “no” or “mine” the poor guy hears that all the time.
