Daddy is happy to have a couple of little hard working helpers for chores around the house.

Cole knocked out on the way home from our big adventure to Berkeley.

After the Little Farm, Cole and Daddy went on a train ride with his pal Miles and Mile's Mommy.

Cole had a fun play date with his pal Miles.  They went to The Little Farm in Berkeley where they got to see lots of different farm animals.  They also got to feed the cows and goats!

The boys were very excited about starting the season's advent calendars.  We have to have two, because having just one may start a war.

The boys are ready for Dodgers baseball!

Decorating the Christmas tree!

This was a rare moment when the boys would enjoy petting little Murphy.  The other 98% of the time the ran away from her crying because they thought she would eat them.

The boys had a lot of hang out time with aunts, uncles and cousins over Thanksgiving at Auntie Laurie and Uncle Ulf's house.

The boys made robot outfits out of boxes.  Jake got very detailed with arm and leg pieces.  Cole made a helmet and marched around the house.
