Jackson said after preschool picture day a few weeks ago that he didn't smile because he was "too shy"...

Here are some pictures I've taken recently... it's all in the details!!!

Sooooo Big!

Jackson, Cooper and I went through the Wendy's drive through this afternoon, on our way home from the library. After eating my # 9 combo ( 10 chicken nuggets, fries and a coke ) I made the comment that I ate too much!! He asked to see my tummy which doesn't remain flat after eating, post-children, anymore. He kinda poked at it and proclaimed "It's as big as Papa Badger's belly!" Papa Badger's is his name for my Dad, who has a nice table tummy. And then he seriously looked up into my eyes and asked "Mommy, do you have another baby in there?"
Lord, help me practice moderation this holiday season.

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year!

I loooooooove Halloween! I get so excited the day October 1st rolls around and it doesn't stop until I hear "Trick or Treat" at my door. Since being a mommy, the fun is two-fold. I've had so much fun making cookies with Jackson, puting up decorations, and having many discussions on what everyone he knows will be for Halloween. Cooper was a good sport for his first Halloween, tagging along in the stroller. He most definetly wanted to be in on the devouring of candy, but settled for puffs... Jason has officially taken the title of "Head Pumpkin Carver". He even wore a costume this year.... Flavor Flav. Couldn't find a giant clock necklace, but I think he pulled it off.

Happy Nine Months Cooper!

Okay, I was too busy complaining about being sick that I forgot to tell the world that Coop is 9 months old now!! He is growing up way too fast!

Cooper is:

* doing everything he can to avoid having to crawl

* up to six teeth now

* following Jackson's lead in the ear infection department...

* determined to walk on his own

* finally sleeping without his reflux wedge

* lightning fast in his walker

* loving Goodnight Moon at bed time

* saying "Dadadadada"( of course )
