NO MORE "PAPPY"!!

Last week while Cooper was in the bathtub the paci fairy came and took ALL of his pacifiers to new babies and left him a SUPER cool new remote control car. He was so excited about his new car he ran downstairs and started running it ALL around the house. Once bedtime came he asked one time where "pappy" was and we told him with the new babies. He has not mentioned it since. I was so proud of my little guy!!!!

Cooper loves his "Big Boy" bike!!!

Cooper has just learned to zip around on a "Big Boy" bike!!! He does not even care that at one time the bike was Lucas' and it has paint all over it. He rides so fast I was having a hard time snapping his photo. Won't be long till he is ready to take off the training wheels!!!

"Fruit For Sale"

The other day I had a box sitting in the kitchen so Lucas and Cooper decided to be creative and made a "Fruit" stand. It was so adorable, they gathered all our apples, bananas and even pumkins to sell. The two of them would take turns being the customer and the sales person, I even got to buy some fruit :)

Pumpkin Patch!!

My friend Laura and I decided to take the kids to a Pumpkin Patch last Friday!! They had a blast. We went on a hayride, danced with the chickens, decorated pumpkins and ran wild through a "Corn Maze".

Fall Break!!!

The boys had a two week Fall Break in October so we decided to hop on the plane and head to Atlanta and Virginia. It was so nice to visit with our family especially my Grandma and Aunts in Virginia who we do not see very often. While in Virginia we got to visit the Air and Space Museum. The boys were in heaven seeing ALL the airplanes. They were not as impressed by the space exhibit. Lucas and I also headed to a Fall Festival with my cousin Beth and her 3 children. He was so excited to ride on the carnival rides. He had my stomach in knots when he decided to get in line for the orange spinning ride, I thought he would throw up. Once we got back in Atlanta we got to celebrate my nephew Davis' 3rd Birthday!!! It was a GREAT trip!

Couch Forts are the BEST!!!

Lucas and Cooper love to build forts with our couch cushions!!! The first few times they did it I attempted to put a stop to it because the neat freak in me could not handle the mess. But then I remembered how much fun it was when I was a child to build forts with blankets and couch cushions. So now I take a deep breath and enjoy their creativity!!!

WHO SAYS "BOYS CAN'T PLAY DRESS UP"!!

"TAKE THIS OFF OF ME"

Lucas had two friends over yesterday after school!!! They had a blast playing dress up and using their imaginations. Little Brother Coop even got to hang with the "BIG BOYS" :)

FIELD TRIP!!!

Lucas had his first field trip with his class yesterday! Since his class is learning about music they went to Hamilton High School to see the band!! Lucas was picked out of the crowd to stand next to the high schooler playing the drums, cause apparently Lucas told the band teacher that he plays the drums, hmmmm?

Busy Little 4 year old!!!

Lucas has quite the social calendar this year from school, to playdates and now soccer! Along with being a social butterfly (do you say that about boys?) he has stopped napping. Needless to say by the end of the day he is beat. I had to share this photo of him falling asleep the other night in our playroom. So cute!

Soccer Time!!!

Headed to Lucas' first soccer game of the season. They were not thrilled about getting their pic taken.


All the boys headed to the field!



Team Cheer!




Go get it #5!!





Way to be AGGRESSIVE!!!

Lucas has started his third season of soccer and his team voted on the name GREEN HUNTER TIGERS!!! He is so excited about this season because they have PRACTICE! Cooper has been such a sport watching patiently from the sideline. He really wants to get in the game with Lucas, one day Coop!

Water Slide!!!

As you all know Arizona is hot hot hot in the summertime!! The boys love to play outside, so to make it bearable we bought an inflatable water slide and they LOVE IT!! Well actually Lucas loves it and Cooper is undecided. Lucas had his friend Hudson over the other day and they had a ball sliding down the slide and shooting water guns.

Labor Day!!!

We recently joined Seville Country Club (right near our house)! We headed to the club for a pool party on Labor Day and we all had a blast. The boys have really become quite the little swimmers this summer. They especially enjoyed watching mommy and daddy go down the huge waterslides. Maybe next summer Lucas will be tall enough to head down the waterslide too.

Blog What???

I look at my two boys and I am amazed everyday at how fast times fly. I decided to start blogging because I am a huge fan and follower of many of my friend's blogs and want to be able to share our family adventures with all of you!!!
