Crazy Cole!!!

Do you dare ask what this angelic face has been up to lately?

Well, I will admit it. I did it. I was that mom that responded by saying, "Oh, my child has never..." Yup. Don't ever say it. Don't ever, ever say it...because it has a funny way of coming back and smackin' you in the face.

Here's the story... On Wednesday afternoon, the boys sat down to have a snack and watch a movie for a little bit. It had just been one of those days where they were both arguing and fighting on and off, and just real irritable with each other. I know, shocking, right?!?!?!? HA! We turned the movie on, gave each of them a snack...

...and I went into the bedroom to finish the never ending pile of laundry. I came back in the living room and saw Cole coming out of the bathroom. After many attempts at asking him what he was doing in the bathroom and him replying, "I wasnt' doing anything mommy," I realized the bottom of his nose was really red. Immediately I knew...he had stuck one of those graham cracker GRIPZ up his NOSE! Oh my gosh. I could tell he was starting to panic...and so was I. As I looked closer, I could see this huge knot in his nostril..and it was way up there! I tried to get him to blow his nose and he was not having any of it! He was screaming that it hurt really bad, he wouldn't let me near him, and refused to blow his nose! Of course I panic...again...and call Dean. He assured me that it would dissolve in a few minutes and he could blow it out...and he was right. I took a few minutes to calm myself down, and calm him down...and then he was willing to blow his nose for me. He blew it right out. YUCK! So, lesson learned. Keep your mouth shut about what your children have "never" done.
Oh yes...that's our Cole...CRAZY COLEY!!!!

And, just because...
