Lovers Spat

Well, Cooper survived his first lovers spat! He was bit by a girl at daycare today. All through the evening, he would point to it and whine. Then, he would tell me that, "Kennedy bite Mama, Kennedy bite!" It was precious. I'm sure I kissed his wound 100 times. He's at the stage that anytime something hurts a little, he puts it in front of me for me to kiss. 

All A Kid Needs Is a Box!

I love how Cooper will ask me to get his blocks down from the top shelf. Then, he will dump the blocks and play with the box. Oh why, oh why do we have so many toys???

MOM & GRANNY...THANK YOU!!

Thank you for you generosity!! Because of you both (plus a little from Kenny and I), I was able to buy all of these diapers for the Citizens Bank of Edmond Annual Diaper Drive! This is a whopping 663 diapers ranging in sizes preemie to six! I am so excited that I will get to deliver these tomorrow. So far, our customers and employees have donated over 4,000 diapers to donate to All Things Baby, Inc. The Diaper Drive is over Friday, but it isn't too late! If you would like to donate, please bring your diapers to any Citizens Bank of Edmond location. If you would like to send me money, I would be happy to do the shopping for you! All Things Baby was completely out of diapers, and we want to be able to deliver 7,000 plus to them next week. I know we can do it!!! This is an amazing organization.

Cooper's Big Boy Bedroom Unveiled

Well folks, the moment you've all been waiting for, Cooper's big boy bedroom!! He absolutely loves it. He's obsessed with his bed and can't stop talking about footballs and baseballs and basketballs! We finally finished hanging decorations this evening during the storms. I asked Cooper if he liked his new room, and he just simply replies, "Yeah..." Oh, his little face is just priceless when he walks in. It was worth the effort!

Our Front Yard

I finally had a chance to work on the front yard a little. I decided to do perennials only (mostly just shades of green - some do bloom) with red mulch. I think it complements our house just enough. We also added some walkway lights to tie it all together. I'm going for the 'less is more' approach.

Now, let's just hope I can (1) keep these alive and (2) keep the grass out!! A mother's work is never done! And, I love every minute of it!! 

Mommy's Chauffeur

Just think...one day, Cooper will actually be driving me around. Until then, how cute is this??

Where to folks??

Let's get 'er in gear!

Checking his rear view mirror.

And, he's off...

Bounce N Craze

Cooper had a great time at Bounce N Craze for Reagan's birthday party in April. Yeah...I know it has been a while since I've updated!! But, we've been busy as you will see. It took Cooper a little bit to warm up to Bounce N Craze, but with Daddy's help, he was up and going in no time!! Hanging out with his old buddy Landon helped a little too!

Cooper started in the ball pit. Daddy kept blowing the air in his face, and his curly hair was blowing like crazy. As you can see, he wasn't all that thrilled.

Weeeeeee!!! Cooper loved the little roller coaster. He went up and down, up and down...

...and when he got to the end, Landon wound push him a little further. And yes, Landon is smaller than Cooper. He just turned 1 in March. He's a strong little guy. Cooper would just sit and wait if Landon wasn't behind him right away. Too funny!!

Finally, Daddy takes him down the big slide!

Yay!! Daddy, that was so fun. Let's go again and again. And, that's just what they did!
