Wrapping up 2010

First we had to disassemble Christmas.
Coop was a big help.


 Jacks not so much!


 Then we got together with our neighbors and had a New Years Party 
(That ended at 8:00)  
When did we get to be so UNCOOL?

The P.E.

One sunny Friday in October 3 very interesting things happened

First
Nick took an 8 hour examination to become a Professional Engineer.


Second
Because the test was in Salt Lake and I don't like being left home alone the boys and I went along and went to the Discovery Gateway Museum.






Third
I sideswiped some guy in downtown Salt Lake.

Now I mention these things today for 2 very important reasons.
First
Yesterday I finally fixed the dent I put in the car!

And Second
Nick just found out he passed!!

Congratulations Bah!!

I'll be Home for Christmas (2010)

For the first time EVER, we got to spend Christmas at Home.
Totally awesome for 2 reasons:
1.  We didn't have to transport Christmas with us
2.  Christmas day was 55 degrees and we went to the Park!

Christmas Morning Dawned at around 8:00 in our house
Iron Man, Stockings,


 and a Stuffed Alligator 
(Jacks cracked up when he saw it at the store)



My nieces were here 
along with my parents 
 it was so much fun to have so many 
children for Christmas!

Everyone felt that Jacks needed just a little bit of help!!

Coop loves his new Train Track 
and the SuperHero Memory Game 
from Aunt Anne.
Jacks loves everything, but he is easy!


And yes that is a huge red sore on Coops nose. He totally turfed it right into the cement on 
Christmas Eve!
I call it his Homage To Rudolph (Like a Light Bulb!)

The Night Before Christmas

 Twas the Night Before Christmas and all through the City
The Christmas lights are all Twinkly and Pretty
The floors in my classroom are all washed and dried
The Happy little elves all beam with pride!

Neighbor gifts are delivered to those thought dear
Presents are licked to be sure ownership is clear
The Christmas tree is all dressed up; not Drab
And who can put a price on the entertainment value of a bag!
The stockings look cozy all ready to fill;
Please, oh please, Santa don't come until.....
My boys are all dressed up, and snug in their beds


Presents would be nice, but bring LOVE instead.

@ 7 months

Jacks:


Is so much fun and is babbling all day long
Is really sucking at the nap-time thing,
But is kicking Butt at sleeping through the night (YEAH)
Loves Kicks and those baby puffs and Bread, and crackers and .........FOOD
Thinks Big Brother is the funniest ever!


Today Coop:
Is kicking butt at potty training, but only when he is in under wear, because ...well.. "Diapers are just for peein' in your pants"  (Direct Quote)
So now all we have to do is get his babysitter to let him wear underwear.

On Wednesday Coop gets to come to school with me and attend a preschool put on by the child development class!!


P.S.  We got family pictures taken last week and I get the print release tomorrow, so something to look forward to!!
