De Da Doo

For those that did not spend much time with our Cole this past December, this title will appear to be nonsense.  However those that saw him over Christmas will know that De Da Doo is 'Cole speak' for snow monster.  I have no idea how he came up with this phrasing but it has stuck...and become a game in our household.  Sam and Cole both now request to play 'de da doo' (aka snow monster) which essentially means putting a hat/ blanket / hood over your head and chasing two screaming boys around the house.  They wasted no time teaching everyone back at home the game and before you knew it Cole had many variations of his game:

-Bapa (grandpa) de da do
-Bama (grandma) de da do
-Oma de da do
-Mom de da do
-Dad de da do
-Ben de da do (a 10 year old family friend)

But the de da do that was the funniest was Uncle Nathan.  For some reason the first day Cole saw uncle Nathan he called him "A Mami"  Despite the fact the he can kind of say uncle and also can pronounce his 'n's' Nathan was coined A Mami for the rest of the week.  It never got old hearing...

A Mami...de da do!

Sun River and Portland for Mid Winter Break

Drew had a conference in Sun River OR this past winter and we made the call to tag along for a little vacation.  Things were slightly dampened by the fact that it appears Cole has developed car sickness since the summer. Ugh.  The drive was so long! However, it was worth it in the end and we had a wonderful time relaxing in an amazing little chalet, enjoying the snow, sitting in the hot tub, sledding and skating!  Couldn't have asked for more fun!  A stop at our favorite in Mt. Hood - El burro loco! A glass of wine after our 6 hour road trip turned into 10 hours due to car sickness!  Right before our Owl Walk.  We were told we could walk into the wood and hear the owls. What a bust!  3 cold and tired kids in the dark woods and no owls!  It's now a running joke in our home as the  tour guide kept 'hooting' trying to draw the owl's attention.  If we want someone's attention in the house we often hoot at each other now...
