Happy Birthday Cole!!!

Today, November 8th, is Cole's 1st Birthday!  Cole is one of my best friend's son.  It is crazy to think how much has changed over the past year. 

Here's when Ellen was pregnant and was revealing if she was having a boy or a girl.

And on Sunday we went to the park to celebrate Cole's birthday.  Unfortunately Hudson had a very rare night of waking up every hour on the hour.  I feel for all other moms that deal with sleep deprivation on a regular basis.  Looking back at the pictures I can see what a beautiful day it was, but I definitely don't remember it at the time.  Look at how big Cole is.  He'll be walking any day.

Cole likes things neat and tidy.  He picked at his smash cake carefully

instead of 'smashing' it as the name implies.
