Quick Update

As I'm writing this I suddenly remember that our family is joining another family from our ward for dinner and FHE tonight, so this will be quick.

Randy and I celebrated our 5th anniversary on the 20th. Crazy, I know. The boys slept at my parent's house for the night, so Randy and I were able to go to dinner and sleep in a little the next morning. Although, Randy had to work a few hours on Saturday morning and my internal alarm clock is set at 6am for Hudson's morning feeding, but it was nice to wake up and not have to worry about the boys.

My sister Lindsay's bridal shower was on the 14th. My sister Brooke, Anna Mae and I threw it for her. It was a lot of fun and Anna Mae went all out with the food. Yum! Thanks to everyone for coming! I can't believe the wedding is in less than 4 weeks. I'm so excited for Linds and Dis! With their wedding in December and my other sister, Bre, getting married in January I'm going to be busy every weekend for the rest of the year. Yipes!

The boys are doing well. Coop is a fireball of energy. He never stops. He would give the Energizer Bunny a run for his money. Hudson is 8 months old now and scooting around the floor on his tummy. I'm just waiting for him to figure out he can move around on all fours. Then I'll have 2 boys to chase after. I wouldn't have it any other way, though. :)

Thanksgiving is just a few days away and I can hardly believe it! That means Christmas is just around the corner, also. Time flies! Anyway, sorry this post has no pictures and is so rushed. Hopefully, my next post will be better. Happy Holidays to everyone!

Happy Halloween

Cooper was Wolverine this year


and for Hudson's first Halloween he was a dalmation puppy dog (he was too big for the pea in a pod costume that Coop wore his first Halloween)

one year older & wiser too

My birthday was on the 5th and my mom's was on the 4th, so my whole family went to Carlos O'Brien's to celebrate. (Check out Coop's face in the picture on the right - hilarious).

Happy Birthday, Cooper!

Cooper turned 3 the other day . . .






We had a Mickey Mouse party and his big present was a Wolverine action figure, which he has not put down since he opened it. After we sang him Happy Birthday he told all of us to stand back and then he blew out all 3 candles in one breath. He spent most of the day singing the birthday song, telling everyone he was 3 now and asking me when we could go pick up his cake. He was so sweet - he thanked everyone for his gifts and cake.
Happy Birthday, Coop! We love you! :)

Best Buds

Hudson loves his Daddy . . .







They are pretty good buds. It's pretty cute. Randy can always get Hudson to sleep by rocking him and singing "I am a child of God". If he hears Randy's voice while I'm nursing, he'll stop eating and look around until he finds his dad. Once he finds him he smiles and then goes back to eating. So sweet.
