Cooper's 6 Month Pictures

We got Cooper's 6 month pictures done last weekend, even though he's more like 7 1/2 months but that's okay. They turned out really cute!

Cooper

Uncle Nick

Uncle Nick came to visit us a few weeks ago. He's not been to Louisville since Connor was born. Keaton kept asking when Uncle Nick was going to be here, and Uncle Nick usually doesn't even know the answer to that. It was nice to have someone else to keep me company during the day and play army guys with Connor. On our last night together we were driving home from dinner (always an adventure) and Cooper projectile vomited all of his food. Everywhere. We drove the rest of the way home with the windows open while I tried to clean up the mess (Michael offered Kleenex, and I opted for an unused diaper). Nick believes we are a GREAT form of birth control. Maybe we should rent our kids out for those couples who are contemplating starting a family. After spending a few days with us they would probably end up getting a dog. Keaton's art debut at the local coffee shop. Maybe he'll follow in his Uncle's footsteps. He does love to paint. And no, I didn't coordinate his shirt to match his artwork:)

I do realize that I have no pictures of Connor posted here. He's waaay to busy to pose for a picture when he's building spaceships, shooting guns and setting up army battles. Cooper's an easy target right now because he can't go anywhere, and Keaton......he loves to look at the picture after you take it. I'm sure that won't last long. Happy weekend!!

March Happenings

This is how Keaton sits every day when watching his favorite cartoons. No exceptions. I hope he doesn't ruin his eyesight since he's mere inches from the t.v., but I have other things to worry about.

Cooper is smiling, what else is new?

Connor's modeling his mommy's house shoes. Love his facial expression, it says "Yes, I am five and I am wearing ladies' house shoes, and I don't mind a bit."

Cooper's joined in and is now taking baby swim lessons with Miss BJ, our wonderful swim instructor. Seems he has become the class demo baby because he never cries when you dunk him under water. Miss BJ's philosphy is to start them early and they won't fear the water like older babies do. I have to admit he's doing really well, so well fact he may teach Poppy how to swim in Florida this year. We'll see.

Keaton the Shopaholic

Yep, I think I've taken Keaton shopping too many times. After pulling out one of his daddy's credit cards he improvised and used the laptop as a cash register. Uh oh.

Happy St. Paddy's Day!

As if he knew it was St. Patrick's Day Cooper decided to share this face with me at lunch. Looks like a sourpuss kiss face if you ask me!

Special Delivery

We got our third barstool a few weeks ago and the boys could care less about that. The best part of the delivery was the extra large cardboard box that came with it. Michael came home to see me carrying a large carving knife into the playroom. For a moment I think he questioned my sanity, but I then explained I was only making an extra hole in the top of our "tank." The tank was a big hit, and as you can see they had all of their weaponry ready for battle.

7 Months

Well in our last post we celebrated 6 months, and now it's time for 7 months. What's new since last month? Cooper has his two bottom teeth and is quite interested in using them to bite his spoon, our fingers and checks them out with his tongue constantly. He's sitting up on his own now which makes a big difference for all of us. The boppys are now packed away which means just one less thing to have downstairs, yay!
