See this hunky man? I am so lucky to have him. He is my rock. Even when he is hundreds of miles away. I just needed to brag about my amazing studly husband.

I got these pictures up! Cole turned 18 months a month ago, so he is actually 19 months right now, but at least I got the pictures! For these pictures, we headed to the LDS Mesa, AZ temple because it's spring, and the temple is gorgeous now! Cole spent half of our picture time walking up the stairs and trying to scoot down the handicapped ramp like a slide. It took a lot of screaming for him to go anywhere else. But, I am used to that by now. Screaming, that is. Cole at 18 months is very stubborn (I'm positive he got it from his dad). He knows what he wants and does not like to be told otherwise. We're trying to help him use his words, but sometimes screaming just gets the job done. He is 100% all American boy. He loves airplanes, trucks and being outside. He is one fearless boy and wants to be just like his daddy. For example, Cole saw Derek drag the hose from the house to the pool so the pool could fill up once. Now every time we are outside, Cole goes straight to the hose and yanks it to the pool. Thank goodness we are getting some pool protection this week because if not Cole would jump right in. Anyway, I feel so blessed to have this little boy in my life. He brings so much joy and happiness into our home. (The picture with Cole's hand to his head- he's okay, I promise! He just bumped his head and cried a little. But he is a tough cookie.<br />

Sometimes I feel so lucky to live in Arizona. And when I say sometimes, I usually mean only November through May. The weather is perfect today! Perfect for this little family to go take a walk! So why am I blogging when it is such a beautiful day outside? Just to brag.<br />
*THIS REMINDS ME! I need to take 18 month old pictures of Cole! Yes, he turned 18 months on February 23rd. Since then he has been jibber-jabbering away. And causing all types of trouble. This little boy is a hard one and stretches me to the limit sometimes, but I love him so much. So this next post coming up this week will be 18 month old pictures of Cole. Promise!Chandler Myershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08159881120826827194noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4964189185344242784.post-74200345541283736652012-02-16T15:39:00.000-08:002012-02-16T15:39:59.165-08:00It feels like forever.Goodness gracious! I cannot believe how long it has been since I have written on this thing! And so much has happened! So here is an Instagram Life update, since that is what I've been taking pictures with these days. (Since Cole spilled milk on my point and shoot- Yeah, you know the term, "There is no use crying over spilled milk?" It doesn't always apply.) So starting in November. We had an awesome Thanksgiving, and I showed off this little baby I made.

The next day, we hit the Auto show, a yearly tradition. This show shows ALL of the cars for the upcoming year! I picked out this sweet ride for my next car. Is it family appropriate? Probably not. Do I look cute in it? YESSSS.

<br />
And we drank a lot of this. Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate. To. Die. For.

<br />
And did a LOT of winter cuddling. I took all the cuddling I could get, which is not a lot from this squirmy little guy!

<b>DECEMBER:</b> Hello, December! My favorite month of the year, and boy did we have a great December! We started the month off right with the Mesa LDS Temple Christmas Lights! Cole absolutely LOVED walking around those lights. And we just let him go!

Then we strapped on a big puffy jacket, and headed to Idaho Falls, Idaho!

<br />
Cole LOVED the airplane. He spent the whole ride like this:

<br />
He got to feel snow for the first time. He wasn't too sure what to think of it. It didn't last long since we've had some unusual heat wave this winter, but I loved seeing him in the snow!<br />
<br />

<br />
Cole loved Grandma and Papa Mitchels's house! And how could he not? My favorite part of their house was the Christmas tree in front of these huge windows looking out to the winter white backyard! It was picture-esk.

I love this picture of Cole on Christmas Eve. He had no idea what was about to hit him!

The best present ever was seeing our dear friends, Jeff and Whitney (not pictured) and Dave and Stephanie! It had been way too long since we had seen them. Derek has a group of about 7 friends that he has grown up with since high school. It was only natural that all the wives became best friends as well!

<b> </b><br />
<b>JANUARY:</b> What a way to start off the new year. We spent New Years in a cabin up in PineTop and spent the days skiing and if I ever edit my pictures, I will post our pictures up on here! As soon as we got home, my little bbabe got sick with a 104 degree temperature.

<br />
But once he was up running around again, we started to play! We went with our (prego- WHOOHOOO!) lunch buddy, Kristin and hit up some food trucks in Phoenix and then explored DownTown. I don't know if it is exploring if you have lived there already, but we did it all.

Then, I started to get a little creative. I was in dire need of a new pillow...so I made one! I am awfully proud of my domestic self.

<br />
We also went a little crazy for Valentine's Day too, which we spent home (by myself because Derek was out of town) and with a sick baby. No bueno. At least I had good looking cookies.<br />

<br />
So we're only halfway through February and Cole turns 18 month in about a week! I know, it's crazy but he is getting too big for his own good! He is the happiest little trouble maker I know! He thinks EVERYTHING is a game. He laughs constantly, and loves to watch his movies. It's crazy to watch his personality grow. We love him so much!<br />

Gotta love that app!<br />
<br />
We discovered that Cole likes to chill out with his feet up.. especially while eating breakfast.

<br />
We went to my old high school's homecoming game and watched my little sister cheer.
<br />

<br />
We bought Cole his first pair of shoes. He loved it and he loved being outside! <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/30525274@N06/6246902360/" title="Cole's first shoes by Monica Johnson Photography, on Flickr"><img alt="Cole's first shoes" height="612" src="http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6060/6246902360_75362ef38e_z.jpg" width="612" /></a><br />
<br />
We ate a little BBQ. Okay, we ate a LOT of BBQ. It was so dang good.

<br />
Cole got new Halloween pajamas and I've got to say that his bum looked so dang cute in the striped pants!

<br />
We tried out a couple of the DIY decorating ideas for Halloween and it turned out pretty dang cute.

We got a visit from Great Grandma and Grandpa Cook... and we LOVED it. Ever second of it. We can't wait for them to come back!

<br />
We got a hair cut! A much needed hair cut, to be honest. We were starting to have a mullet. And by "we" I mean Cole.

We dressed up. All Halloween weekend. I was a flapper, Derek was a 50's gangsta and Cole was Toad from Mario Kart.

<br />
Right here are my two favorite boys. Ready for a little mush? 'Cause here it comes. I am so blessed. My husband is such an amazing daddy. I've got to admit, he has exceeded my expectations. The best ever is to watch Derek play with Cole or when Derek wants to go pick Cole up from his crib after his nap because he is excited to see him. AND when Derek gets excited when Cole snuggles up on his daddy. You can tell it melts his heart. I love it. I could watch it all day.<br />
I'm feeling such an immense amount of love tonight for my husband. He has been working so hard at his job, for the CPA exam and is so extremely helpful at home. I don't want to embarrass him, I am just so proud of him. So, there is your daily dose of mush. Mmm. Doesn't that taste good?Chandler Myershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08159881120826827194noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4964189185344242784.post-57972774489125631542011-09-08T09:24:00.000-07:002011-09-08T09:24:06.438-07:00Memorial DaySo for Memorial Day, we had a couple visitors! Derek's mom and stepdad came to visit from Idaho, and we had a blast. I cannot believe I did not take any pictures other than these few, but we were just having so much fun, I forgot to take out my camera! One of the days, we took a day trip to Sedona. On the way up to Sedona, we stopped at Montezuma's Castle. Derek had always wanted to see it, so it was fun to go and visit it! Sedona was a blast and quite the change of scenery for our Idahoans. We also, as per request of our visitors, ate some Soul food at Lolo's Chicken and Waffles. We had Kool-Aid, grits, fried chicken, mac and cheese, and waffles. It was so yummy! It was sad to see them go, but we had such a great weekend with them here! <br />

A little man party. We invited our family over and served desserts and opened presents. Cole got his very own smash cake in which he stuck his hand in then cried. Not exactly how I envisioned that going. In his defense, he has had like three teeth come in all at the same time and that has got to hurt! For his actual birthday, let him open our presents. One of his presents was mustache pajamas. I thought they were so funny and so fitting for this little man! I did take pictures, but I've been a little obsessed with Instagram, so I decided to use those instead. Since Cole has turned one, he has walked! He is taking about five or six steps and immediately claps afterwards, and makes sure you do too! He is also is becoming more of a "tornado". Today, I went to the grocery store. Cole discovered how to unbuckle himself in the cart and stand up when I was turned away looking at what I needed. He also discovered he could reach out and pull things off the shelf, like a whole box of gum. At home, he leaves a mess wherever he goes and pulls out anything loud that he can bang against the floor, like cake pans or sifters. I think I may have a crazy "toddler" on my hands! This week, I will be trying to teach him not to put his hands in the toilet and to eat other foods besides berries and mac and cheese. I'm trying to fatten up this little skinny kid but he has become quite the picky child while he is teething. Goodness gracious! Any help?<br />

He's one! My little man is one! What an amazing little boy, I have! We love him very much! Now, we're off to celebrate and do something fun! P.S. Cole walked the other day. Took his very first steps! We are so proud! Can't wait until he is just running around the house!

<br />
Your little hand is wrapped around my finger, and it's so quiet in the world tonight/<br />
Your little eyelids flutter cause you're dreaming so I tuck you in, turn on your favorite nightlight/<br />
To you, everything is funny/ You've got nothing to regret/ I'd give all I have, honey/ If you could stay like that/ Oh darling, don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up/ You can stay this little/ Oh darling, don't you ever grow up, don't you ever grow up/ It could stay this simple/ I won't let nobody hurt you/ Won't let no one break your heart/ No one will desert you/ Just try to never grow up/ Never grow up.<br />
<br />
I cannot believe my little man is one tomorrow. I just keep thinking about the first time I had my little baby and now he is walking (took his first steps yesterday!) Cole has brought so much joy into our family and we love him more than anything. Derek and I were talking the other day about how we can't imagine our life any different. We are a very blessed family. Here is a timeline from us announcing our pregnancy to today!<br />
