Man on the Move


I feel like we've been saying for months, "Cooper's just about to crawl", "He's so close", "Any day now", well the day finally came and there is no going back!  This was from December 14th.  I had just made him a bottle and brought it upstairs.  He was sitting in Aubrey's room, and I put it on the floor and out of nowhere he started crawling.  I should have know food would have made this boy move!

A few weeks later, he started pulling up, and now he's cruising along furniture, and I've even seen him let go for a second or two...














Aubrey spent the evening pushing Cooper around the living room on this little toy.  His feet don't quite touch the ground yet.

A certain little lady on the same toy.  She had just turned one in this picture!


Christmas 2011


Here is some of the fun from our Christmas 2011...

Decorating the tree - Aubrey was super excited to help with haning up the ornaments this year.





All dressed up for her school program.  She loves those red shoes!



On the door of her classroom...

We made two visits to see Santa this year!  Cooper did such a great job, we decided to go twice!  Just kidding - they both did great at the first visit, but I totally forgot to get a picture of Cooper by himself, since it is his first Christmas.  He kindly cooperated the second time, too...



Checking out the gifts under the tree...

Aubrey's 4th Birthday

I still can't my believe my sweet girl is already 4!  After school and work, we had dinner at home together (steak - Aubrey's choice) and then birthday cake!  She was so surprised to receive her gifts, she thought her trip to Sea World was her present. 
The birthday girl, ready for her cake.

Blowing out the candles...

First time didn't work, making it count this time!

Cooper got a little taste of cake, too.  Can't wait to see what he does when it's time for his birthday cake!



Cooper had a great time with the wrapping paper!
