Tub Time

Bath nights are always fun at our house. Cooper and Reagan both love to play in the water ~ and fight over tub toys!!!

He is so full of himself!
Reagan loves to put the toys to night-night with washcloths as their blankets
Payback for all those times she's hit him!
Such a sweet girl!

Hair Cut

Not only did Cooper get his haircut on Saturday, but I did too. I needed a little pick me up and thought short hair may do the trick!

Let It Rain!

Reagan received a Scrap N Stuff Umbrella from Mamaw & Papaw Carpenter for Christmas this year, and today we finally had time and all the supplies needed to put it together.

Getting all the stickers, glue and papers organized
Reagan was very careful in choosing which stickers went where
The finished product. I really hope it rains this week so she can show it off to all her classmates. She's been telling Ms. Gomery about it since Christmas!

Cupcakes for Papaw Rick

Yesterday was my dad's 59th birthday (hope you don't mind me telling your age). Reagan really wanted to go see him, but we finally convinced her it was not a "trip day", but she could bake him some cupcakes in his honor. Say no more, she was ready to go! She picked out the cake mix and frosting at the grocery store all by herself. She decided papaw would like Vanilla Confetti cake mix with vanilla frosting.

Hygiene ~ important as always

Can't believe she's sharing her cake batter (by the look on her face, she's not real happy about it!)
She had to lick the beaters too

Yum, Yum!
This is so good

Grocery Shopping

Cooper had a new adventure today - his 1st time grocery shopping. Why, you may ask, did I have my camera at the grocery store? It was just down the plaza from the haircutting place, I had it in my purse, so I couldn't think of a reason why I shouldn't take pictures in the grocery store. Bad move on our part ~ we left the house without snacks, so we had to open a box of Nilla Wafers in the store. Cooper probably had about 18 by the time we left, Reagan had about 10, Greg and I indulged in a few ourselves!!

Enough with the pictures, let's get some food!
Is she seriously taking pictures at the grocery store too?

The purple was her favorite
Decisions, decisions!
The grocery store was packed today as if snow was in the forecast. So while daddy and Cooper waited in line, Reagan and I played with the animals.
Cooper wanted his turn playing

Why haven't you brought me here before?


Haircut

Cooper went for his 2nd (professional) haircut today. Things started out really well ~ all smiles and giggles. He even touched the clippers with his hands...but when the clippers touched his head, let's just say we put the camera down!!

All ready to go
The very first touch is all I was able to capture on film!!

Just Because...

They're so darned cute (and I love them)!




What's Up With This?

Cooper seems to have an ever increasing fascination will all things cleaning. He loves brooms, mops, paper towels and wet wipes. Let's hope some of this rubs off on his sister (and dad) and continues when they're old enough for me to appreciate them to do the cleaning.

Snack Time

Snack time in the Sandidge house is one of the favorite parts of the day (and usually very messy now that a certain little boy likes to feed himself!)

Got milk?
Nilla Wafers are his favorite
Caught her with her mouth full!

Big Day

Cooper started in the 1 year old class at school today. He is the youngest in the class by 6 months, but you'd never know it. He is as tall as everyone in the class and I think he is as mean!! When I picked him up today his teacher, Ms Karen, said that he did really well ~ he sat at the table with the other kids and ate all of his breakfast, most of his lunch and all of his snack. He slept on a cot and took a 2 hour nap and was playing outside & having a great time when I picked him up this afternoon!

Cooper walked into class like he owned the place
See ya mom, I've got some playing to do!
