Enjoying the weather!

Since it has been so beautiful lately, we've been taking advantage of the time we've been able to spend outside!





Cooper also had his first ride on the Arctic Cat!

Father and Son Bonding

I almost forgot this very important video of a dad and his son playing together.

Our crazy life.....

It has been a while since I've posted anything. We've been busy preparing for Lydia Jayne (who will be here in less than two weeks!). I've taken some pictures and videos of different things we've been doing.
Braylyn has been doing great at school and we've been having lots of play dates! She got an award for reading 15 library books from school! She also had a field trip to Schlotzsky's Deli and got to make her very own pizza.

Cooper learned how to turn the vacuum on and then proceeded to take it from me and do it himself!

Cooper is learning to brush his teeth...aka chew on the toothbrush and eat the toothpaste.

He is also learning how to color (with crayons). He got an Elmo coloring card for Valentines Day and he loves to scribble all over it.

Cooper asleep on daddy's shoulder...he has a double ear infection.

Got home from the grocery store and he was asleep, needless to say he stayed asleep after bringing him inside. Who knew riding in the cart was such hard work.


He looked so cute with his diaper hanging out....



Watching American Idol is so suspenseful!!!

And finally a video of Cooper dancing......his greatest love (next to his bottle, juice, and blanket).

A little bit of everything...

Just to get everyone up to date...we made an offer on a house in Lexington and didn't get it. We felt strangely relieved at the time due to the arrival of Lydia Jayne coming up quickly. Moving sounded CRAZY! We've decided to build this fall, in Lexington. Braylyn just finished her session of soccer. She can't wait to play outdoor soccer in the fall. Cooper is getting bigger and learning a lot more everyday. He is a sweetheart and is willing to help you with anything...especially vacuuming! Lydia Jayne is due March 18th, although we probably wont make it that long. Went into the hospital a couple weeks ago for premature labor. They stopped the contractions and everything is better now. She's become quite comfortable lodged against my ribs but its making life quite painful! We can't wait for her to arrive! Finally I've added a few random pictures that I took of Cooper (who might I add, had his bangs trimmed....this mama is not ready to cut the curls off yet).




Christmas 2011

I've been neglecting my blog duties, so I'm finally putting pictures from christmas up.

Braylyn's favorite part of decorating.





Look at that belly....

Cooper, Our Silly Monkey

Cooper decided that the dog cage was a very fun toy one day. No one can touch him while he is there! He was loving it!


One of the many times he falls asleep in the car, but i thought he looked so peaceful!


And here he fell asleep taking a bottle on daddy's lap while watching football....must've been a good game!


And this is a huge shopping bag. He could pull it up and play peekaboo. Who needs to buy toys when we have shopping bags?


Eating a banana, his favorite!


At Braylyn's soccer game, playing with his own ball and wanting so badly to go run around on the field.


This is a video of him dancing with Braylyn to the end credits of Tangled.
