New Post!

Yes, I know I suck at blogging. It's been forever and but we've been busy and nothing too exciting is going on. Here are a few updates...

Halloween was really fun. James was really excited about Halloween and the pumpkins and was trying to understand what it was about. However, he hated the costumes. Refused to wear anything. We had four different occasions where he was supposed to wear a costume and he refused. I bought him a Goofy costume since he loves Mickey Mouse. He thought it was funny but wouldn't put it on. Then I tried to get him to wear his dinosaur costume from last year. He put it on once then refused again. Finally the day before halloween I went to target and bought a Thomas the train outfit. He refused to wear it but I finally talked him into it. He loved it eventually and finally understand that in order to trick or treat and get candy he had to wear the costume. He made himself at home on several occasions while trick or treating and just marched right into the home instead of patiently waiting for candy.

We also went to a Texas Tech game. They are doing great this year and are currently ranked #2. I wanted James to go to experience the game but this might not have been such a good idea. It started at 7pm so I figured he would be passing out by halftime. HAHA. I gave James a tiny bit of Coke (he had never had caffeine i don't think) and with the excited crowd he was totally nuts. Screaming, yelling, bouncing, you name it. He was SO wild and even though it was 40 degrees he wanted his clothes off! He can't wait to go back again but I can. He wore me out and didn't go to sleep til 10:30 that night.

In other news, Shawn and I are excited to announce that we are expecting another baby in May 2009! We are excited about adding another Coughlon into the family. We'll see how James reacts.

I'll try to get on this more. We are heading to Nebraska for a wedding for Shawn's family. James is so excited about going on an airplane and screaming "BLASTOFF."

I can't get pictures to get on here from work so I'll do it when i get home!
