Park & Play

Cooper and I spent a couple of hours at the park today while our house was being shown.  We slid down the slide, went sky-high on the swings, played pirates & Octonauts.  We had so much fun ~ we need to do it again...soon!

look at the joy on his face

 ready to slide

 whee!

 he didn't like getting sand in his shoes

 ready to swing

 "higher, higher"

 when did he get so big?

 I "heart" him so much!

 of course, no trip to the park (or anywhere) is complete without a little snack

 he was very proud of his Oatmeal Creme Pie

 After a day at school and gymnastics class, Reagan had another soccer game.

 Go Blaze!

 going after the ball!

Again, score isn't kept officially, but if it were they would've tied 4-4

Monday Madness

After a rainy start to the morning, the afternoon was wonderful and we spent it outside.

zooming by on her scooter

 I can't walk as fast as they can ride, so the come back to get me once they reach each stop sign

 they were fascinated by the dump truck in one of our neighbor's yard

 gorgeous day!

 taking a break from playing

 blurry picture, but great smiling laugh

 learning to jump rope

 reflecting on the day's events

 lest you think our days are all happy and fun....Cooper is in the midst of the "defiant fours" ~ and it's killing me!

 it doesn't last long, but man is it rough!

 playing kick ball

 another tantrum (Heaven, help me!)

 again, he's back to happy and playing

Sunday Smiles

Reagan wanted to show off her new dress before church this morning.  And, Cooper couldn't be left out!
