Pretend Play

Cooper is really starting to come along with his pretend play! He thinks our remote looks like a phone (actually it does resemble our phone). He picked it up tonight and held it to his ear and said "Hello"! Then he ran over to put it to the Ernie dolls ear!!! And I caught it on video!!!! :) You may need to turn your volume up but he definitely says "Hello" twice.

Learning to Swing

Cooper is just starting to learn to swing on a big kid swing.

Grandpa Don took this hillarious series of photos.

Cooper was having a great time...

Even when he fell he still had a smile on his face :)

Just like his father....

Never too many computers!! :)

Making a name for himself...

The other day I was eating luch and Cooper was sitting next to me playing with playdoh. I wasn't really paying attention to what he was doing but suddenly he started calling out letters and getting very excited. He had made his name (or an approximation of it) out of playdoh all by himself!



He is missing a letter and the R is huge, but besides that he did a darn good job! I couldn't tell what the letter after the O's was, but Cooper told me it was a P.

He was so proud of himself he even posed for a picture with his creation!

Silly Boys

Cooper must have been cold, he went and found his hat and mittens and put them on all by himself!

Quinn sitting in his favorite spot.

Puzzle Proof

Here is a video of Cooper doing an interlocking 9 piece puzzle. He is really good at it, despite refusing to do even the simplest form puzzle at school. Usually he can do it much faster but a)He was very tired b)He was watching Yo Gabba Gabba at the same time c) I was videotaping it of course he is going to go slow!

Happy Birthday Quinn!

Today was Quinn's sixth birthday. He had a great day and they made it really special for him at school. I thought they wouldn't do anything because they already had the "April Birthdays" party. I was wrong, his aide bought in cupcakes and chips for the whole class and they had another party! I feel like such a bad mom, I should have done that! Oh well. She also bought him a huge balloon that actually sings "Happy Birthday" two toy trucks and a ball! Quinn loved all of his presents especially the balloon. He and Cooper both love the balloon, personally I think it is a tad loud :) They really go all out at his new school, it makes me happy that they work so hard to give him a good life.
