Happy Weekend

Have a great weekend, we sure will!

Things I love...

I don't know why, but
I LOVE this picture. Her
Fred Flinstone feet, the colors,
the moment. I was letting her play in
the sprinklers, and she was loving it!

Her face is too funny.

Macy has cradle cap, I've never heard of anyone but newborns getting it, and it is really hard to deal with when they have a ton of hair. Our pediatrician tells us to put vaseline on it. I didn't even think about it, I'm sure she gives that advice to newborns with NO hair. So as most of you probably know, and if you didn't you do now, vaseline doesn't come out of hair. So we read that if you put cornstarch in the hair it will absorb the vaseline. It took a few days, but I am happy to say that her hair is normal again!

I am also LOVING my new car. We got a great deal, we drove down to Oracle on Saturday, and I am so happy to have my own car again. I miss my old car, but it's all good. This one is longer, we got the Expedition EL, so I am excited to go on a trip now and be able to put our luggage actually in the car!

Happy Birthday

There are not enough words to express my love for this boy! I am so thankful he is mine, and I KNOW why he was sent to me. There have been things that have happened in my life, and Cooper has helped me through those things in ways he will never know. He was saved for me, for my family, for this time.

6 Things I love:

His toes

His laugh, it is contagious, and it rocks

His spitfireness (is that a word? you know what I mean)

His voice and speech

He always tries to make me happy, he even used his birthday wish last night on me. I don't know what he wished, but he told me it was something for me. Seriously, what 6 year old does that? My Coop does!

He is, and always will be MINE!!!

Have a great birthday, but please stop growing up. Looking at these pictures makes me miss my old Coopy. I love you so much!

Happy Halloween

I love the back of his vest,
so I had to show it!

I am pretty excited about Halloween this year. I don't know how to sew very well, and I made most of the costumes. I made Jon's bell bottoms & vest yesterday, I made my pants today. I made Buffy's gypsy scarf, and I made Andy & Macy's costumes. I also didn't use a single pattern, I think I did pretty good. I can't wait to actually learn how to sew.

I wanted to do a lot more for Jon's and my costumes, but time didn't permit. Oh well, I think Jon looks great. I am so glad he was smart enough to think ahead and grow out his beard.

Pictures of my days...

Chloe and I on the COOLEST ride
at the fair, the DISKO. Do it if you can!

Decades Day at school,
I wish Andy had a leather jacket, or
Buddy Holly glasses, but it was all good...

Macy's new face,
gotta love it! Check out those teeth!

Cousins going to Mimi's Ward Party.
I love that Lola is the Swine Flu,
and Tommy is the doctor. I only had 2 kids,
because everyone else was at church activities.

Coop's bed, he is serious about decorating it.
I love that he is sleeping with his gun.
I ADORE this boy so much!

Macy's FAVORITE new toy.
The IBERT.
I got mine on Amazon, it ROCKS!

Celebs...

It was Celebrity Day at school today. The first person to guess correctly, gets a treat from me! Johnny, this excludes you from Andy, because you already know!

Here's a hint for each:

Chloe is part of 3

Andy makes me laugh

Good Luck!

Coop's Party

We had games, prizes, a pinata, candy, cake, everything you need for a great party. Cooper had fun, and that is all that mattered! I think he is the best Frankenstein EVER, he rocked his costume. I need to work on Chloe & Buffy's some more, but it was fine for that day. Andy and Macy were darling, I wish I had thought of it sooner, I would have had our whole family be cavemen, another year I guess!

Just a peek...

Cavegirl & Frankenstein...
Could they be any cuter?
