Happy 2nd Birthday Big Coop!

Today is Cooper’s 2nd Birthday! We are celebrating at home with firefighter cupcakes.
Cooper woke up saying “Birthday, Birthday! and Cake Cake” it was pretty funny. He’s definitely starting to “act” like a 2 yr old. We have seen a few tantrums and outbursts, not too often. Cooper is still a sweet boy, very loving. We you leave he says “wove you”. When Daddy comes home he runs the fastest and yells “Dad deeee” and gives a big hug. Cooper still loves to go to bed at night and maintains the same schedule napping 1:30-5 and then to bed by 8. I know that seems like a ton of sleep but all of our kids did that until they were almost 4.
Cooper is still really tiny for his age. I will update with stats when we go to his 2 yr well care. His size seems to be more like Carson’s and his personality is exactly like Griffin. Very laid back, quiet plays on his own for hours at a time, has a very long attention span, and loves to line up his cars & trains. He has no interst in watching TV, thank goodness.
He talks about “Nano” (Rick’s mom) non stop. I guess he is always thinking of her. Its very sweet. As a far as speech goes he says a ton of words, he will basically copy anything you say. But overall he is pretty quiet, maybe he just doesn’t get a chance to get a word in! Can’t imagine why. ha!




Fort Worth Seniors-Sneak Peek

A group of Fort Worth seniors from a private Christian School found my site and asked me to come up and shoot their senior sessions. So I headed up on Friday night and meet them at the Ft. Worth Botanical Garden on Sat. We had a great time. The shot above says it all, unfortunately it does not have all the seniors in it.
So here I am on Sat. night downloading and laughing at some of the fun stuff we were able to get. Here is a really SMALL sneak peek of what is to come this week. I picked out a few that stood out at first glance & edited them really quick before bed.
Thanks guys for being such and awesome group of friends, even if you did pick on Jayne a little. :)


Sorry James I know you don’t like the calculator shot but I think its way cool! And he even added Class of 09 if you look close.

This last one was funny because the boys pushed Jayne off and it caught her by surprise.
Check back this week for their individual shots, the “nice ones” for their mom’s. :) We did a few of those too.

Water Bugs Part 2

Some more favs from Wed.




How many kids can you fit in a water bubble?

Water Bugs at the Water Park

Yesterday I packed a picnic lunch and we headed to the water park. The kids had a great time running around & splashing each other.
Here are the some fun shots in color, tomorrow I will post the B&W’s.
From oldest to youngest: Griffin, Carson, Parker and there are 2 of Cooper





Parker’s New Bed

Last week we surprised Parker with a new big girl bed. It was long overdue. She was still sleeping in her converted toddler bed. She was so thrilled when she walked into her room and saw this great big bed all for her.
The bedding is from Pottery Barn Kids, the Aloha collection, which is super cute and so
“grown up”. Here are some shots of the monkey’s jumping on the bed.




And this last one is simply pure joy, all 4 kids snuggled together. A rare moment captured.
