Cooper Is 3 Months Old Today






My little sweet boy is 3 months today!! He is so awesome! I love what a happy temperment he has. Even when he is sick like he is this week he is still all smiles and trying to talk to me. He brings us so much joy. The boys can't get enough of him. They wash their hands as soon as they get home so they can hold him. And he loves every minute of it. I love when I catch Brayden talking to him or trying to calm him...it is so sweet. And Kylan is just such a helper with everything. Daddy said Cooper is doing much better at night while I am at work. That makes me so happy!! I am just so pleased that having another baby has been a easy transition in our lives and has made our family so strong!!! Happy 3months to you little Cooper!!!

We had some Visitors!!

We had some Visitors!!

Last Wed. Summer and Madi arrived here and we had so much fun. I was so glad my sister had come to visit me and I couldn't wait to play with Madi. She is so smart and such a cutie pie. And even though she got sick she was still such a joy to be around. Brayden wrestled around with her and Kylan helped her and she loved the Baby Cooper. She actually tried to get in his seat with him and tried to cuddle him. On Friday me and Summer and all the kids went to pick up Dad and Kim. Everyone took a nap on the way there including Summer. The kids were really excited to see the grandparents. On Saturday we had a fun day in Charleston, SC. It was so beautiful and I just love all the history there. We visited the battery and walked market street and ended up at the Aquarium. The kids loved all the sea life...especially Madi and Grandma Kiki. Then we headed to Folly Beach. It was so beautiful, east coast beaches are so clean and quiet. It was pretty cold and a few of the kids fell asleep so we didn't stay long but we got some beautiful photos there. On Super Bowl Sunday, Cooper was blessed. I was so grateful my dad was able to come and bless my little baby...for the third time. It was a great blessing and I know Cooper will live up to all he was blessed with. Although Dad almost renamed Cooper to Conner...sure glad he didn't do that. We had a great time on Sunday visiting and barbequeing steak and chicken (it was so yummy) Good Job Chuck!!! Then it was time for Summer and Madi to leave. I wished that they didn't have to go so soon...I miss seeing them. On Monday we were back in the car and headed to Gaffney,SC a little town where my dad served his mission 30 some years ago. It was a great town...but they had torn down the mission house he stayed in. We got to see where he tracted and the Church building...pretty cool dad! After thar we stopped to say hi to Chuck's parents and then went and played around in downtown Greenville,SC. On the way home we drove through downtown Charlotte, NC. We were everywhere this visit. On Tuesday we chilled and then went to see some old Civil War sites. (there is so much history back east, i love it). Later that evening we drove Dad and Kim back to Raleigh so they could catch their flight early the next morning. What a weekend!!! I don't think I have drove around or seen that many places at one time...but it was so fun and worth it. I can't wait for them to come back and do it again. Thanks for coming Dad and Kim!!! It was a great time!!
Here is a slide show some of our fun!!
