Happy Valentine's Day !!

We gave the boys lunch boxes full of goodies for Valentine's Day. Carson was excited about the treats and Cooper loved it all, as you can tell he couldn't look up for even two seconds. Silly boy.


Jason wanted cinnamon rolls for Valentine's. A true gift of the heart, they take forever to make.


This is for Kynde. She is teaching English in Ukraine for the next few months. We love you and Happy Valentine's Day !!!

Oh little Bubba

This guy is busy and has a thing for sitting in stuff. He loves to wear shirts on his head and is a super messy eater. I am not really sure why I allowed him to eat spaghetti by himself. It made a cute picture, but the clean up was bad, so bad. Carson is getting so big and his personality is so funny. He loves to give hugs and kisses and if you ask him what a dog says he barks, well sort of grunts. He has a very serious poker face around strangers, he is very hard to get to crack a smile. He loves to be thrown in the air and being crazy. He also likes throwing random things in the garbage, movies, Cooper's toys, or whatever he finds on the floor. We have found ourselves routinely checking the garbage for things that shouldn't be in there. It is amazing how fast they grow and change overnight. We love you Carson!!!





Helping with Laundry

All the hard work of folding and putting away leads to an empty basket to play with. I just am amazed that they both fit in it together. Cooper is a great big brother and patient most to the time with Carson. Carson follows him everywhere and wants to do what he is doing.

Christmas 2010!

So I know it is know February, sorry. Better late than never I suppose. We stayed at Jason's parents house for Christmas. We decided to try it since we weren't up for all the travel. We go down on Christmas Eve and usually come back home, then go back down Christmas morning. Way hard on the boys, so this plan worked well. The boys got to play with their toys longer and we all got to enjoy the morning without being so rushed. The only thing we forgot were the stockings, thanks Grandma for finding us some to use.

Carson loves the vacuum, so Santa gave him one of his own. He is funny to watch roaming the house with this thing, Santa did pretty good.

Cooper got some tools and kits to build. He also got a night fury dragon, it blends in with the chair, he is sitting on top, Santa wanted to see how long it took Cooper to notice him. Cooper did pretty good, it only took him a minute or two.


The infamous stair picture. Both Jason and I grew up taking family pictures Christmas morning on the stairs before we could look at what Santa brought. Cooper woke up first, so we had to wake Carson and he wasn't to thrilled, he just wanted to be held. Cooper is on the verge on breaking down since he has to wait.



Carson yawning or way excited to get candy




Ready to get to work


The whole family Christmas morning, a few of us are still trying to wake up!!!! We had a wonderful Christmas and the best gift we could have is being together forever.
