This week

The past 2 weeks have not been a delight, to say the least.

I was horribly sick LAST Tuesday and asked my husband to leave work early (5 hours early), which meant I was crazy sick. The kids were so good though. The flu was not a good time. The Parker got 4-5 days later and the Cooper 6-7 days later. Parker has been better today, but Cooper seems to have slipped back into sickness. Which means we will miss another Birthday Party. :(

Parker woke up a bit ago and as she feel back asleep in my arms, I just stared at her adorable face. So cute and innocent. She would be still and then move her mouth, like she was chewing. Cutie!

Alright goodnight and here's to hoping tomorrow is a healthy day.

Husband and I are going out to celebrate our 2nd Anniversary.

Cooper's Party


November 4th, 2012
Today we had a party for Cooper. He turned 3 a few days ago and we decided to have a party with his friends and family. We had about 11 kids, their parents and relatives attend.
It was at a bouncy place (where they have several blow up bouncy castles, etc.) & Cooper did not get on one of them. Well, he may have taken a few steps in one and then came and found me. "Too scary." -he told me. He then reused to play until he had a piece of cake (which we had hyped up pretty big time, so it was probably out fault.)

Kids

Today was Parker's 2nd attempt at eating Rice Cereal. She probably had about 1/4 oz. she did pretty good.

She is hanging out on her belly a lot longer without getting mad. She likes it, she likes to watch tv and Cooper.

She is still getting up 1-2 times a night. I miss the good ole days of sleeping through the night (2weeks to 3 months).

Cooper didn't have school today, so we had a lazy day at home. He did paint for a hot second and then helped me load the dishwasher. He had a bath, didn't listen to me and I had to beck bad cop. All he wanted after his bath was to play with me and I said no... He didn't listen to me over and over again during his bath. I told him that if he didn't listen that we were going straight to bed.
Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day for him. I really need to go to the grocery store but I'll wait to go when the hubs get home. 2 kids, not feeling it.

Good night.

Today

Tigers won tonight, so off to the World Series they go!!



Cooper had his school pictures taken today. He is in the older 3's class, which I guess is called 2K. Wonder if Lambie made the cut in these pictures, hahaha.

Parker has started making bubbles and making little gurgling noises. She's been sick for a few days now. Hopefully she'll feel better in a few more days.

These kids wear me out, but I can't imagine not having them around. I mean I can for a few hours once or twice a week. Hahaha :). I know I'll miss them when they go to school.

There aren't enough hours in the day to get everything I want and NEED to get done. Agh Fail. Oh well.

I'm trying to lessen my closet and declutter/organize all my things in general. So far I've given up a lot of clothes... Probably not as much as I should, but I'm nursing and can't wear all the clothes I want to, so they are staying!

Off to get some sleep before Parker decides to get up in the middle of the night. I miss her sleeping through the night, must be a growth spurt.

Night.

Kal's Birthday

My Best Friend's son turned 5 today.  It seem like just yesterday, he crawled/walked in on me peeing on my pregnancy test.  hahahaha  I'm sure he'll enjoy that story later.

Cooper, Parker and I went to the Party early (because Cooper's nap is around 2), we were the last ones to leave.  He didn't take a nap, he had frosting for lunch and enjoyed playing!  He pee'd in the potty there and after some compromise, finally ate a pb&j sandwich.   Parker, took a small nap in the beginning, and then was a disaster after she woke up.  Poor thing was soo gassy.  She spit up/threw up on almost everyone that held her.  Emily the most though, she likes her. haha

Here are some pictures I took today... It is amazing how much better pictures are with a smile.

Botanical Gardens

Yesterday we went to the Birmingham Botanical Gardens and I took pictures of the kids.  I bumped into one of the volunteers from the Zoo and chit chatted with her for a while.  Cooper was his normal shy self, when she tried to talk to him.  I wonder when he'll get over that.

Here are some of the better pictures.  I should have taken some of Cooper giving her kisses, oh well... we'll have more time for that.  :)

Pumpkin Patch

We went to the Calera Railroad Museum yesterday (an hour before normal nap time) & it went really well.

Cooper sat with daddy and loved looking out the window while the train went. Right when we got off the train be said he wanted to play in the sand, we told him we needed to get pumpkins first.

We picked out two pumpkins and then sand playing time is was. He played in the sand the while time we were there (I nursed in the passenger car), there were dumptrucks and tractors, what did we expect?

Great time! He had a nap at 4:30-6:15 and then headed to bed at 10... He didn't end up asleep til like 11:30. Yikes! But we don't have MDO tomorrow, so it's ok.

Pumpkin Patch Express

Today we are going to Calera to ride the train to the Pumpkin patch.

The kids are going to wear their matching Train Shirts. It's a chilly day, so long slews underneath.

This will be the first time Cooper has one to the train, he's pretty exited already. He fell asleep pretty fast night and was so good, so we could go for sure. He had to be a good boy.

Lack o Sleep

Well last night was a rough night of sleep or lack of sleep.

I didn't fall asleep til midnight-ish, then kept waking up every 20 minutes or so. I couldn't get comfortable. Ended up coming out to the couch around 2-3am, tossed and turned for a while, then woke up at 6. Thank Goodness, some sleep was helpful. I even thought of going into Coopers room to sleep. I always feel like I can fall asleep when put him to bed. Ha

Wish me luck from now and baby comes, under 2 months tile due date, so that would be a lot of sleepless nights.

Cooper and I went to a bookstore last night and got a box set of Caillou books to start reading at night. I am trying to phase out watching YouTube videos to go to bed. We phased out one video, so that is progress.



Blowing bubbles yesterday in the pool before naptime... No diaper due to impromptu pool playing.

Have a great day everyone.
