Our Fourth of July :)

We had such a wonderful Fourth of July as a family of three!

The day began by sleeping in. Little bit woke up on his own around 6:15 a.m., but after I fed him, we were playing in bed and he kept rubbing his eyes, so back to sleep we all went, and I didn't get up for the day until 9:30 a.m. It was heaven ...

After breakfast and some house work, we got all dressed up to head to a small town in our area for a Fourth of July picnic. They have a big meal that includes kettle beef & gravy, fried chicken, chicken & dressing and more, so we definitely stuffed our faces. I love the food so much, I made hubby go back in line to get me more dressing and tomatoes :)

It was so hot we didn't stick around long, and ended up spending the afternoon at Grandma and Pa Pa's house. They hadn't seen Coop for a couple of weeks and commented on how much more he is moving and getting around. Still scooting and no crawling forward, but definitely getting closer.

Once we got home, Baby Coop was exhausted from not having a real nap, so he napped a couple hours while hubs and I just relaxed. Later, we went to town to pick up some BK and then went to watch the fireworks display. It was waaaaay past C's bedtime {the show began around 9:15 and typically he's asleep by 9} but he was a trooper for about 20 minutes then decided enough was enough, so we went on home.

This cracks me up, I think it looks like he is flying

Watching the boom boom pow!



Me and my boy

 Hope you all had a fun Fourth as well. God Bless the USA!

XOXO,

First Easter

Mister Cooper had a very good first Easter. That bunny sure did spoil him! Daddy considered telling the bunny to skip over our house this year, but Mommy would have nothing of it!


Anyhow, here's a little recap of our Easter weekend.

Our little love bug in his special Easter outfit. We celebrated with my family on Saturday and J's on Easter Sunday, so he wore the same outfit both days. And dad ironed it both days, too :)

Full belly and ready to dig into his gifts.  

That dog sure looks fun, mom :) And I'm sure we'll have lots of fun in the pool this summer!

So sweet, slobber and all! It's the Fisher Price Laugh, Learn and Grow (or something like that) puppy. Coopy is still a bit small to realize squeezing the hands, etc. makes the noise, but he loves it. And I love this picture because I think my boy actually resembles his momma a bit!

New clothes!

And a new sleeper!

Over Easter, Mister had his first taste of gravy thanks to his Pa Pa (my dad.)  Both places, we spent a lot of time outside, as it was a beautiful weekend and he loves outdoors and hates being inside when it's really loud - can you blame the sweet boy?

My heart was very full watching my little love on Easter day, and I can't wait until he gets to really hunt eggs next year! We had a great day, until we got home and realized I was running a fever.
