Happy Half Birthday!

Yesterday was Cole's half birthday! Yes, he is 6 months old. Crazy.

In honor of his half birthday, we decided to make donuts. Not that he can eat them, but whatever. When we were first getting started, we thought our hands were a mess.

Then after actually trying (key word trying) to shape the donuts and playing with the dough a bit too, we were a real mess. Hayden had a blast! We tried the actual donut shape but then just went for donut holes instead.


As you can see off to the side, the donuts got a little done. We had the oil too hot so they were burning on the outside and doughy on the inside. We had a few that turned out just right, though, and they were yummy! (Notice Hayden's mouth is stuffed full)

So here's to my Cole bear. He's smiley and slobbery, loves his sister, can almost sit up, has the sweetest laugh, snuggles, weighs quite a bit(17 lbs), and makes me so happy.

His doctor is out of town so his 6 month check up is in 2 weeks. I'll post his stats then.

I had to add this picture of Hayden. Ryan got her this dress in China last year and she finally got to wear it yesterday. Don't you love her "picture face?"
