Play date

Cooper and I had some friends over to play last week. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed having them all over!

Here they are in his "big boy room" (adults are Joanne, Janet, and Suzanne)



The kids eating lunch. This is the first time (I think) that I've had Cooper sit at a BIG table and eat. He's a little small for the chair but LOVED it! (Cooper, Drew, Zach, and Josh)



Jane and Jake eating.


Jane and Drew fishing.

The mess! They couldn't even walk on the floor, and as you can see my son is sitting on the train table after pushing everything off of it. One of his favorite things to do!

Random Pictures

I had some random pictures that I thought I'd post.

Here is Cooper and his buddy "Sheep." He sits on sheep when he watches TV and reads books. I thought this was so cute b/c it looks like they're having a conversation. (For some reason the picture turned when I downloaded it)


Being silly with sheep...

and wrestling with sheep! This is his new thing. Poor sheep, he's so abused.

In time-out. Unfortunately he's here almost once a day! I tried to get a picture of him smiling in it because most of the time he thinks it's great to go to time out.

He's saying "ewwww"

This is random, but it's his birthday sign I had hanging up on his b-day and I didn't post it.

Playdate at the Park

Cooper and I met our friends Joanne, Jane, and Jill, along with Allison and Emily at the park last week. It was beautiful, around 75 degrees and sunny. We had a great time. I just got a new camera that is really big so I didn't get a ton of pictures of the kids playing, I had to go leave the camera in my car! Oh well, we still had a lot of fun.

Here is Cooper playing on one of the playgrounds there.



Cooper again!

This is what Jill did during our entire playdate. She loves the park! :)

Here's her big sister Jane. She LOVED the swings and stayed on them for quite awhile. Don't you love that smile? :)

And here's Emily. She loved watching the kids playing.

Visiting babies

Two of my friends in town had babies recently so Cooper and I went to visit them.

This is a picture of Joanne with Jane and baby Jill. This picture is actually from January I think, I hadn't posted about visiting them yet!


Baby Jill, isn't she so cute??

Another friend, Suzanne, had her daughter Elise just about two (now it's been three) weeks ago. Here is Suzanne with Elise, who is only 2 weeks old!

Another cutie pie!

Here is big brother Jake playing with Cooper. Cooper LOVED playing with Jake and all of his fun cars!

Party Fun

These are just some random party pics.



Here's Cooper (before the party still in his PJs) playing with the fishing game he got for his b-day. He's playing on the train table Gma and Gpa B got him for his b-day! He'll be getting some trains for Christmas :)

At the party the kids played "pin the fish on the fishbowl." Here's Cooper taking his turn.

Some of the kids hanging out with dads watching them. (Jacob and Tom)

Suzanne (with baby Elise) and Dana

Laura with Ben, Joanne and Jay with baby Jill

Cooper with mommy and daddy

Getting a Nemo balloon from Grandma B. Yea! He loved it. We missed Grandpa B at the party, he was sick!

One of the party favors. It was supposed to look like they're taking home a fish from a petshop, but it didn't quite give that effect :)

Ashlynn and Elizabeth eating pizza.


Josh, Ben, Jake, and Drew eating

Jane, Cooper, Drew, and Dylan

I think this is so funny. Cooper is blowing out his candles. I don't know if you can tell, but for some reason he now doesn't know how to blow out, only up. So he's blowing as hard as he can and he's only blowing his bangs up! It's so cute. We are now working on blowing out, he has to be able to cool off his food! :)

We had a great time!

Party People!

These are some pictures of the guests from Cooper's birthday party. I know I'm missing Zach, he was napping during most of the party. But he sure looked cute! :)





Here is Cooper with Elizabeth and Ben

Baby Elise, only a week and a half old!

Cooper with Elise's big brother, Jake

Cooper with Drew and Josh. ( I couldn't get him to pose without this balloon)

Cooper with Ashlynn. Isn't that a sweet smile on Ashlynn??

Joanne holding Jane, and me with Cooper. Jane's little sister was here too but I didn't get a picture of her.

Dixie holding Drew, Dylan is in front of her.

Thanks for coming everyone, we had a great time!

Cooper's 2nd Birthday!

We finally got a new camera so I can start posting again! The big event that has happened is Cooper turned two, yea! Hard to believe. I have TONS of pictures from these days so I'll probably be splitting up the pics into different posts. Here are a few decorations from his "Nemo" party, along with pictures of the big two year old boy!

The fish cupcakes I made.

The invitations to his party

My birthday boy!
