So enthused

Cooper and I went to Bricktown (down town OKC) and had lunch at Falcones. I had decided with my parents before I left AZ that the new rule was never go anywhere alone with Cooper because I cant control him...that is so embarassing to admit, and I feel like a horrible, wimpy mom, but it is really almost dangerous for us to go anywhere alone together. Just cause he is crazy and I am pregnant, and he is strong and kicks hard...(he is a sweet boy though..) anyway, we were down there anyway and I was starving so we had a date and it went well! We had a nice lunch, I only got socked in the eye twice and until that happened, we had a fun time. He even let me take his picture! He even alomst smiled! Oh my goodness I pray I can survive 2 kids.

watching a movie (trying to restrain Cooper from beating any more cousins up)














Cooper, Harrison, Charlee and Ella

Thanksgiving in CO

Sweet Ella read books to Cooper and he was in Heaven.






We went to Colorado for Thanksgiving and had so much fun. We got to see family that we rarely get to see and my grama and grampa who just got home from a mission in Tonga. We had so much fun although Cooper was a nightmare. He could not have behaved any worse (I suppose he could have...I just cant imagine it.)

Aunt Amy and Aunt Beth made yummmmmy breakfast and then all of the dinner. It was so yummy. Amy is pregnant and due 2 weeks before me. In fact, I have 2 more aunts expecting in the same month as me!

















Our dear Cooper refused to take a nap even though he had been up since 5:30am and was just as bratty as he has ever been!

Fun in Ft. Collins

We had so much fun in Ft. Collins with Drew's brother and sister in law. Cooper and Torrey got along really well and Cooper still asks "where did Treddy go??" He loved "Treddy".
Jumping on Clint with Drew's encouragement.

work'n out

Cooper climbs on Drew's back when he is doing push-ups. He doesnt allow Drew long breaks either. As I am making dinner I hear "Again! Again!" and Drew is like "just a minute...wait a few more minutes...OK, in a minute."

Daddy's Helper

Cooper LOVES his lawn mower. He has an inside lawn mower and an outside one, and loves them both. He follows Drew around the yard right behind him, and waits patiently when he stops to empty the grass.

Cooper and his puppies, "Nye" (Valentina) and Ciba

Daddy's shoes, mommy's hair

Cooper likes to walk around in our shoes. I am sure every child does. It is just funny! And I chopped my hair again. Every time I do something drastic to my hair the decision is made in like one minute. I have been trying to grow it our for a year and last night went to get my hair colored and when she asked if I wanted it trimmed or anything I was like, yah cut it! Thank goodness I like it. I think alot of the time I need people to make decisions for me because I am too impulsive! So, in 2 years, I might have long hair again....maybe.

Wonderful weather!

When daddy came home from school we went out to play. The weather was so nice. It was good lighting too, I tried so hard to get a good picture of Cooper! He doesnt sit still and if he knows I am going to take a picture he turns around. So I finally sat him down, and was lucky enough to have a fast finger to get a picture when he looked at me for a split second at a time! I sooo give up!He likes wearing daddy's lunch bag around and calls it his "pack pack". It's a little hard to wear a pack pack and play foot ball at the same time.

Ahhh, he's looking at the camera.

Pictures that wouldnt show up the first time!

More faces.

When Cooper hears airplanes, hellicopters, trucks, etc...he makes this funny face

Pumpkins

Making faces with Grama!

Trick or Treat!!

Poor Cooper was sick on Halloween and we didnt realize it...well we figured it out eventually because he was walking around like a drunk man into cacti. At one house he decided he had had enough and sat down. VOLUNTARILY! That is when we KNEW something was wrong. Then the rest of the way home took an hour becuase he wanted to sit every 5 steps and pick out a new candy. Poor Cooper.
