Cooper First Birthday

I cant believe Cooper is one already!! His officaly birthday is December 5 but we had his party on December 2. We had a smaller then usuall gathering, which worked well since we had to have it in our little house and since it is December I can not push everyone in to the backyard like at Stevies parties.

He was more into the actual toys and didnt quite figure out the unwrapping part but I am sure by Christmas he will have it down. I thought for sure the little trouble maker would be all over the cake and sure enough he was seated for 2 seconds before his hand was in the cake, but like his big brother just one touch and that was it. I dont think he liked the feeling of the iceing, Stevie didnt like it much either. He was a trooper for the party and was a little freaked out when we all started to sing to him but eventually he let out a big smile and a giggle. I cant believe how much he was grown and look forward to so many more birthdays.

Stevie got a big brother present too, Nana brought him a spiderman and Granny brought him is first pair of Hockey Gloves....and so it begins my life as a hockey mom.

Halloween 2007

No excuses for not posting in awhile. I am just going to try to catch you up.

Halloween is always a big event in my world, I remember it when I was a kid it was one of my faveorite times of the year. I try to get my kids as excited for it as I am but I just dont think they get it yet. They are only 3 and 10 months after all, I guess I just have to wait a few years lol. This year Stevie wanted to be a pirate, since we watched the first Pirate movie in Kelowna in May he has fallen in love with anything Pirate. I was on the ball this year and got the costumes in September so they got a choice. Stevie got to actually be pirate Jack Sparrow, his faveorite pirate in the whole world as he says. The pictures says it all, he makes a pretty cute, I mean tough looking pirate lol.

Cooper didnt have much of a choice this year, as soon as I saw the little Devil costume I knew it was perfect. He is truely my little devil and is my trouble maker.

We went trick or treating with Matt and Sandra and little Alyssa. She made quite the cute Hefalump!! Stevie got a good haul of candy and made it almost 3 blocks, 2 blocks more then last year. He loved getting candy, what kid doesnt!!
