I could Drown.......

............In These Baby Blues

Couldn't you??

Am I missing a step??

Coop has been in underwear for more than a month now, but he keeps having accidents.

Most of the time they are in the bathroom, but sometimes he doesn't even try.

He doesn't want to be in diapers, 

but is he not ready for full-time underwear??

Not really sure what to do, when I get to daycare at lunch

my day is just ruined when he is wearing different pants.

I should be home with my kids and am really struggling with being a working mom and making potty training "Stick"

What am I missing????

Jacks @ 8 months

Jacks:

Still has only 2 teeth

Eats a lot of Bread

Army Crawls all over

Wears 9- 12 month clothes

Randomly bursts into fits of laughter

Sleeps for 8-10 hours at night

Is a Mommas Boy

Coop:

Is doing awesome at being Potty trained, and only has accidents in the bathroom if he doesn't "Hurry" enough.

The Last Gift of Christmas

My final Gift to Coop and Nick this year was a 1/2 hour flight over the city.

Coop loves airplanes, and I was so excited for him to go on his first flight!

This is a picture of our subdivision. ^  The Purple roof is ours.

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.

Bet you wish you had smell-o-vision!

Because between THIS

And THIS

And This

I am giving the witches gingerbread house a run for its money!!

Do you want to LICK my WALLS??
