Little Brother

Cooper has made an apperance at ever soccer game. He loves it! I think he just likes all the grandparent attention but whatever! :)

Aunt Samantha got Cooper this shirt before he was born and I have been waiting for him to wear it. I love love love it! Thanks Sam!

Soccer Saturdays

Soccer is still going on and we are really getting into a groove. Will is loving it and really showing his potential. He has a great attitude on and off the field. He will cheer for the other team when they score, sit on the sidelines and cheer on his teammates. He shares the ball with his teammates and really enjoys being out there. We are all amazed at how fast he is, I am looking forward to years of soccer. Will we are so proud of you, goals or no goals! Keep up the good work!

A little pep talk from Coach Dad

Laughing at something, my guess is Cooper

Well here is Will and sweet Miss A. Will told us at dinner the other day that if he couldn't marry me he would marry Miss A. Excellent choice Will, Miss A comes from a wonderful Christian home and she is cute as a button. So thankful for friends like Miss A.

Faces

We have been spending lots of time in the backyard lately. Right before lunch and right after lunch are our favorite times to go out back. In the afternoon the sun is just beating down on the play gym and we can't be back there but if we plan our time out there, we can have a truely enjoyable time. We love digging in the dirt or driving cars but Coopers favorite in the Jump-a-Roo that the sweet Sanders Family let us borrow. He will jump for a while as long as Will is there to entertain him. Long story short: we are so happy the warmer weather has arrived.

My Soccer Star and My Creepy Crawler

Practice for soccer is a hoot. You have 10 children, all of which step foot on the soccer field and decide they are hungry, thirsty, tired, want to pick flowers, watch the train, watch the airplane...the list an go on and on. It really is funny. Mark is doing a great job at encouraging the kids and keeping them motivated. He is a wonderful man and I adore him for taking on this crazy task.

Before practice pep talk.

Once again the wind was crazy. Will loves him some cones. They really are great, we use them in the driveway to ride bikes around.

But with the wind, the cones just wanted to run away. You can see the goal in the background, it lasted about 2 seconds.

I love his smile here, so sweet and really enjoying his time with Dad.

Introducing my Crawler

He can be across the room and I get out the camera and it is a sprint to my feet.

He just wants to touch it, or maybe he is coming to ask for a kleenex, either works.

Bubbles Bubbles EVERYWHERE

One afternoon in the playroom Cooper was getting fussy, an easy fix for that is always bubbles. Now we are not talking any bubbles we are talking the best bubbles in the world. Gymboree bubbles. You ask what makes them so good, well they are non-toxic, they don't leave that icky bubble residue and they last forever. Plus the cool bubble blower make it effortless to get a room filled with the sweet little things.

Mr. Bubble Blower Himself

Cooper is just in awe!
