not to be forgotten.

here are a few more pictures from our trip to oklahoma that i thought were too cute not to post.

making sure that i have everything in the diaper bag that we need...by emptying the content s first to take inventory of course.

i love grandma's old fashioned high chair!

sooner land.

this weekend we went to oklahoma to see family and go to a wedding of a dear friend.  first we went to tulsa where we stayed with my grandma and got to see a bunch of my cousins and other family.  i must interject here that my 96-year old grandma is a devout follower of my blog.  don't you wish that your grandmother was that cool?  anyway, we had a great time.  as always, we had chocolate cake at every meal (including with breakfast one morning) because everybody knows that grandma's chocolate cake is amazing.

grandma also got all her little great grandkids these adorable little red chairs that he loves.  she still had 3 of them at here house and they were all lined up together which cole liked even more as he crawled all over them and used them to get to the piano.

he also got to play with his 3rd cousins who adore him.  they all want to hold baby cole.

can you feel the love in this photo?

cole loved the blocks too that are at grandmas house.  the best part?  you can dump them all over the place.  did i mention that is his favorite activity?  he is obsessed about pulling things out of bags, baskets, drawers, piles....basically anything that he can spread out all over the room and make into a huge mess.  no doubt that we have a boy on our hands. 

and of course cole had lots of time with great-grandma.

then we went to oklahoma city for the wedding of an old friend. Congrats Laura and Cameron!  

fun times at the reception!

museum time.

my dad is in town and we went to the mayborn museum here in town.  cole and i had been before but it had been a while and he wasn't crawling yet so he couldn't really enjoy it.  this time he LOVED it. we started off in the transportation room.  we spent 40 minutes in here as he got into everything.  he drove the firetruck....

he rode the little cars (or at least he tried to)

he played with trains

we visited the little town

he tried to water the garden 

he loved the perfect-sized couch

complete fascination with this wooden maze

and after the museum he was so tired that he conked out before we left the parking lot.  we were tired too but instead of a nap, my dad and i went to our favorite place, the dr. pepper museum, to get dr. pepper flurries with old fashioned soda fountain dr. pepper.  cole man never even woke up.

backtrack.

i found some old photos that i meant to post ages ago.  these were taken back when i was in dc. they are too cute not to post. here are a few shots from the pool.

ready for the best one?

and a few with aunt jenna and uncle adam!!
