Bad Mom Monday

You Know those warnings on Shopping Carts? "Do not let your Child Stand in Cart"
Well I did, and he fell, on his head, on the cement, in Costco, and here is his shiner.

If only I didn't have to live and Learn at the expense of my Child!!

Fun Fourth

We decided to go to Nicks folks for the fourth. It was a super long drive, but we have lots of fun when we got there!!

Friday night we drove up to Flaming Gorge to watch the fireworks. They had a live Band and Coop thought it was just like Guitar Hero

Coop and Mercedes Enjoying the Music!!

On the Fourth we went out on Grandpas Boat!!

The Kids liked splashing in the freezing water

We had a barbecue on the Beach

Coop Loved the water and really enjoyed "Driving"

He sure got tuckered out though!!!

What I do for a living.........

I teach kids to do THIS!!!!!

These are pics of all the pots that I unloaded from my last 2 bisque fires!! And this time I didn't blow any up!!!!

How cool are my kids though??? I love my job!!!

No Fee Day

Zions was free this weekend!!
We had sooo much fun and Coop was so good!!
He walked almost all the way to the Upper Pool at Emerald Pool
But of course riding the Bus was his favorite.

Here they are on the way down. (notice the tired face!)

Back at home Restin' and Relaxin'

It was such a great day!!!

Party Day

Luckily we chose not to have Coops Party until Saturday, so the sick day didn't interfere much.
We were so excited that both sets of grandparents and my sister and her kids came for the day. We had so much fun and Coop got seriously spoiled. Here are the blocks I made for him

and here is his stack of presents! The bike was by far the biggest hit!!!

And he loves his tools from Grandma and Grandpa!!

I decided to make his Cake myself and I think it turned out pretty sweet!!
And here is the Birthday song.... He is so grown up and smart!! Dontcha think???

Happy birthday Baby Boy. I love you to bits and wouldn't give up one second of our time together!!!!

Birthday

The day Cooper turned 2 dawned clear and sparkling......so I let him sleep in

and I woke him with a song.......................

Then he got really sick and we spent most of the day lying on the floor reading Books!!
