Catching up on Cole

Well if Noah gets a full page and 100 photos of him posted to the blog, Cole should too!  He's had quite a year of changes and is becoming quite the toddler (in good and bad ways of course).  But he's being a great big brother to Noah and a wonderful son.  Its amazing to see the changes every day.  So here's a photo montage of his progression over the past year.

A year of Noahbear

Given that we've had such a hiatus from documenting life, I wanted to make sure we captured the sprouting of our little Noah into Noahbear (his favorite nickname) or Noahbeer as Cole likes to call him.  Below is a smattering of photos capturing Noah throughout the last year.  This certainly doesn't do justice to what he's been up to, but it is an easy way to catch up.
