The Latest

We had a fun time in Colorado for Thanksgiving this year. Didnt have my camera for actual Thanksgiving with Amy and Julie's family and Paul in Littleton, but we had fun any way. Then we headed to Ft. Collins for Christmas shoppin fun.


Cooper, dad, Torrey, Colton and Uncle Clint watching WALE or how ever you spell that.

And it is so fun to play dress up with Georgia. She is such a good sport about it too.

Georgia is the cutest baby EVER!!!

So says Mommy. And I am so right. I just love her fat legs and chubby cheek smile. Oh she is so precious.

We made it (not without some help)

when does this plane leave again???

So LUCKILY my kind mother and father came with me to the airport and waited with me until I got on the plane. THANKYOU! What would I hav done without them? Between constantly getting stuck in the storage part of the baby stroller, Cooper ran around in cirlces int he middle of the terminal, occasionally running into people when they didnt get out of the way fast enough.

Looks like my dad is having a blast!

Fun at Grama and Grampa's.

We have to go home tomarrow and Cooper does not want too. I say, "but dont you want to see Daddy?" He says "Daddy can come to Grama's house."
Well, I dont blame him. It has been pretty fun. He has cousins everywhere, grandmas and grandpas, uncles and lots of cool stuff to get into all day. I hate to take him from his cousins!

Happy Halloween!

When I was little and candy was my main concern in life Halloween was my favorite holiday, I even liked it better than Christmas. I so enjoyed celebrating with my kiddos this year. We had several Halloween parties this year so Cooper got to wear the costume I got for him and the costume he thought of too. All he talked about was being a pumpkin, so m grama made him a pumpkin suit on Halloween and he was in HEAVEN! He wanted to have orange hair so grama went and got him the orange hair spray too. How would it be to have a grama around all the time?? It sure is great for the short time we get to see her.











Grama made Georgia kitty ears and a kitty skirt to go with her shirt.

Sunday picture day

I try to get their pictures on Sunday. When else are they dressed up? Well it only lasts like 5 min, then the shirt is untucked and the bow is around her eyes. And tht is why I have to get a picture.
The past two weeks Mr. Cooper has had alot on his mind. At least once or twice a day, I get to have this conversation with him;

"Mommy."
"what Cooper?"
"Ooper doesnt want to hold a snake. It will poop on Ooper."
"Eew. That would be gross."
"Do snakes have bums?"
"Uh....sure."
"Bats dont have bums. They wont poop on Ooper."
"Yah, bats have bums."
"Do piggys have bums?"
"Yes."
"Do lizards have bums? Lizards wont poop on Ooper."
Yadda yadda yadda, then we go onto insects and their posteriors, and it is just such great conversation. And he also says Georgia's name soo sweet. "Goooogia."

Doesnt like the carrots

I juiced some carrots last night and mixed quite a bit of juice in with her rice cereal and she was not a fan. She would not swallow, and that is why it is everywhere but in her mouth. She is usually pretty clean when she eats. But I was thinking about it and it probably was REALLY strong because I juiced 4lbs of them and put alot of juice in the cereal..that would be like 3 carrots probably...I kept putting it in her mouth too because I didnt want it to go to waist. Oh well now I know.

And Beautiful Georgia on Sunday

Mangum Cooper

Oh sweet Cooper you have been so good lately. You have been saying please and thank you ALWAYS without me asking. You have been so sweet to miss Georgia (you always have been) and you have been growing up so fast! You say the funniest things all day. Every time you see a pumpkin or anything Halloween-ish, you announce "It must be Halloween time!" You have been telling me that you want to go to the lizard store to hold a lizard. So today we finally took you. You didnt get to hold a lizard but you got to hold a Guinea pig. So now you want a "piggy at Ooper's house!" ( The "C" in Cooper is silent.) We'll think about it. You are so cute it is hard for us not to just give you everything you so sweetly ask for. We sure love you Cooper.

Sweet Georgia likes to hug her dolly when she goes to sleep.

On Friday We went with some friends to watch the cars race at the tracks. It was a fun and ever since Cooper has been talking about race cars. And ATV's. He tells me daily that he wants to go to Walmart and get ATV's. A pink one for Georgia, a black one for mommy and a green one for Cooper and Daddy. I thought it was funny that he chose a pink one for Georgia. He says Georgia likes pink. We may be going camping this weekend and I told him, and he says 'Go camping, catch crabs, ride ATV's!!" I have been telling him that there just isnt any room in our garage for ATV's and he keeps saying "move mommy and daddy's car, put on the street!" He still doesnt use complete sentences so we get a kick out of listening to him talk.


Way past hair cut time. It is to the point that there really isnt much I can do with it now (well there is alot actually just nothing socially acceptable.)
