I don't know where to begin to blog, the last 2 weeks have flown by and I don't think I can remember everything we have done. So I am going to just go off the pictures I have on my phone and on our camera.
My brother and his family came in from California over the 4th of July week, it was so great to see everyone and it was my first time meeting my nephew Lane and also them meeting Cooper. It was so fun to get to hang out with everyone. We all took the whole week off so we got to spend everyday with them. It was all so worth it!
Me and Lane - our first time meeting!
Lane and Cooper meeting each other for the first time.
Grandpa and Cooper
Lane was all full of smiles!
Lane and Tommy were such good buddies. Tom rode with dad to pick them up from the airport and Tom had lots of fun entertaining Leah and Lane.
Leah showing us her pretty jammies and of course trying on Grammies shoes. She had all of Grammies shoes out!
Grandma, Leah and Cooper
Monday, our husbands surprised us with a "girls spa day" it was fantastic. We enjoyed a 50 minute massage and a 60 minute facial. It was awesome! After we went for lunch at Vinny Vannuchi's.
Later on that afternoon after lunch Kristi and Stephanie came out to my house to help with a project that Stephanie wanted to do. Well so did I but she was one with the idea. All I can say is we finally have wall hangings in Coopers room! More of that to come later.
While we were hard at work, working on the project, the kids played. They all had a ball. I'm not sure where Cooper is at this time. LOL
Tuesday afternoon, we took Cooper to Chris and Kristi's and Tom and I went off to get a pedicure. The picture below is not me getting my toenails but Tom's. Yes he got both his big toes painted for the 4th of July. LOL
Cooper borrowed Lane his play gym. It worked out great, Cooper is still to small for it anyways and it was perfect for Lane.
These pictures are taken on the 3rd of July, we were up at mom and dad's for a steak fry, it was hot! Notice the no clothes and wet wash cloths. We were keeping the babies cool!
The 4th of July, Chris and Kristi hosted an open house party for the holiday. She went all out, everything was great and very festive.
Oh boy, I forgot about this! So I was feeding Cooper and he was, well pooping, and he just didn't stop. He doesn't normally poop while he's eating but he must've had to go and he went and went. Next thing I know it's all over me and my WHITE shorts! I called my mom up to take Cooper after I got done changing him and I went home to change. I don't think my white shorts will ever be the same.
Cooper is nice and hot, look at his little "man boobs" as Tom calls it.
And of course no picnic would be the same without beanbags. My partner was my Aunt Noreen, we made it to the semi-finals but ended up losing. We had fun though!
The next day, Thursday, we went to my cousin, Erica's, house. She invited us all out for hamburgers and hotdogs for the kids. She had a big waterslide set up in their backyard and we all hung out there for awhile. We also were out there Friday as well.
I had to borrow one of Lane's swim diapers, they are actually Leah's because they are pink and have Dora all over it. So we took a picture of the boys in pink diapers. Can you see Cooper is not too happy about it??
Thursday night, again was girls night, me, Erica, Stephanie and Kristi all went to the movies. We went to see Magic Mike. It was a 10:00 showing and we had so much fun. The movie was nothing to talk about but the men in the movie were yummy! What was the movie about? I don't think any of us can answer that, no plot whatsoever but it was fun to watch!
Leah was asking me all week to go to my dance class, Jazzercise, so I decided on Friday to take her to the 4:30 class, it was a 30 minute class which was perfect and she had a blast. She kept right up with Linda the instructor. It was so much fun having her next to me in class. I can't wait until next time!
Water break!
Linda and Leah. Linda loved having her in class as well!
Leah talking to Cooper, she sure loves her cousin and he loves her!
Grandpa and Laney bug!
Lane giving Cooper kisses!
Leah watering Grandma's flowers. She helped her every morning with her flowers on her deck.
I almost forgot about these. Monday night after our project was complete we ordered Happy Joe's pizza and after that we decided to give the kids a bath so everyone was ready for bed. They are all so cute in the bathroom.
Leah wanted to join us as well. She's such a clown!
Lane was looking at her like she was crazy!
And last but not least, Friday night the 6 of us all went out for dinner we chose The Three Mile house, it was so good! We hit up a couple of bars and one of them had a photo booth so I gathered everyone together and we got our picture taken.
It was great everyone being together, we don't do it enough but when we're all together we sure try and make the most of it. We had a blast. Jake, Matt and Cole helped Grandma and Grandpa watch the babies.
Until the next time we're all together...
