I Know, I Know

How many pictures can I possibly have of them in the bathtub? Hundreds and hundreds...they're just so cute, I can't stop myself!!

Double duty - brushing teeth and taking a bath

You can just hear him saying, "blah, blah, blah, blah, blah" He loves to stack and re-stack

Model-esque

Reagan had homework last night - do something artistic, so she chose to do a stamp collection

Next, she decided to practice writing her name

And then she wanted to practice drawing shapes

Another new favorite ~ climbing stairs. He's on his way to bed!

What...

...is so great about this purse? Can I have one of my own?

I've got to find out what's in here...

Such a cute boy...even with a purse!

Sunny Sunday

Reagan and Cooper love, love, love to play outside ~ they would go outside in 10 degree weather if we would let them! Today was a beautiful sunny day - almost 60degrees, so we spent a little family time outside today.

Playing soccer

Time Out for some milk
Not sure whether to use his hands or his feet...he'll just use his whole body

a ball more his size

Time to slide

Having fun on the slide ~ actually sharing and taking turns!

Can you say static electricity?

Everything is a new adventure for him

More milk and soccer

So good to see them playing together

That's a big load!

Cooper thought this was so fun ~ he laughed and giggled the entire time. Reagan also got pushed around by mommy and daddy, but I had put my camera down, so no photos of her

Another Saturday Date

Greg and Reagan had their weekly daddy/daughter date Saturday. They went to a local diner and Greg said Reagan was a big girl and ordered her own breakfast ~ 3 pancakes and orange juice!

All ready to go

While Reagan and daddy were on their date, Cooper and I spent our time reading some books
Another new favorite thing...climbing onto and off of the couch all by himself

What's for Dinner?

A new fascination with the refrigerator has begun. Cooper loves to rearrange the Coke bottles and whatever else he can get his hands on. But, at least it keeps him occupied and happy while I'm preparing dinner every night!

He's figured out how to get the locks off the cabinets

This looks good
If only I could figure out how to get the lid off of this....

Caught me!

Hi mom!

This would look good here

Sweet Heart

No other words needed!!

Cute Reagan story ~ we happened to be following her doctor home one evening (he lives in the neighborhood across the street) and here's the conversation that followed:
Mom: Look Reagan, Dr. Brooks is in that truck
Reagan: Where's he going?
Mom: I guess he's going home.
Reagan: Does he live beside us?
Mom: No, but he doesn't live too far away.
Reagan: Not two far away? Does he live one far away?
Mom: Yes baby, he does live one far away!

Upside Down

Two of Cooper's favorite things ~ being upside down and walking backwards. Just look at his face in these pictures!

(Sunday) School of Hard Knocks

Cooper and his friend Andrew are quickly becoming the tag team duo in their Sunday School class. Cooper is one day older than Andrew and they are like bulls in a china shop when they are together. They love to wrestle each other, make noise, but their favorite thing to do in class is eat!!!

Cooper just knocked Andrew down

Taking a break from wrestling
Flirting with Kate (she's 4 months older than Cooper)

Playing tug of war with Andrew's shirt

"We're just playing!"

Back home in his new favorite hiding place

Helping mommy cook dinner

They're Here!

Cooper now has molar teeth on the left side of his mouth (if you're facing him). This tooth has been a little more of a struggle coming in ~ he didn't want to eat as much and was just a little grumpier than normal. Looks like the right side is ready to pop through any day now!

Cooper vs Sweet Potatoes

What else can you say? I think the sweet potatoes may have won!! Cooper likes to feed himself nowadays, and sweet potatoes aren't finger foods!!

What a mess! You probably can't tell by the picture, but there is enough green beans, squash, zucchini and sweet potatoes on the floor to feed a small army!

Gotta love him!

Can you see the sweet potatoes in his eye lashes?

Saturday

It was a nice day outside (although a little windy), so we decided to take advantage of it and play outside.

First, a snack must be had

Cooper playing soccer with daddy
Fun in the sun!

We came inside and played a little game of baseball on the Wii

Reagan was a very good pitcher

Greg taking a few swings

Date with Daddy

Today, Reagan and Greg had their 2nd daddy/daughter date. They had breakfast at McDonald's and enjoyed lots of good conversation!!
