Cooper Smiled For Christmas

Well I thought I had a grumpy baby but, Cooper surprised us all and was all smiles for Christmas. I guess he was just waiting for something good to smile about. This was so cute I had to tape him.

We had a Great Christmas!!

We had a Great Christmas!!

We headed to Charleston for Christmas this year and had a great time. I think the boys got everything the hoped for. Kylan got his Xbox360 and Brayden got a DS and Cooper got some new toys. We had alot of fun with Chuck's family. We especially liked playing on the Wii... we want one really bad now. We also on Christmas eve went down to James Island and saw a great light display and toasted marshmallows and the boys got to rock climb and ride the carousel. It was cold but we had a great time. Even with all the fun I was having I couldn't help but think of past holidays and I felt a little sad because I realized I hadn't been with my family in a couple years now for the holidays. I hope we can get together for the next ones. I put together a little slide show of our fun...Enjoy!!

Football Banquets

It's just starting...here I am a momma to 3 boys, how many of these will I be going to!?!

The boys enjoyed flag football so much this year. We are proud of how well they both did!! But I am so glad it is over. Although Chuck did all the work this time...practices and games(I only made it to the beginning of the season games). Oh Brayden got an award for the Best Quarterback for his team and Kylan was probably Most Improved on his team. Go Jets!!! Go Panthers!!! And here is our newest little Rookie!!

Cooper @ 5 weeks & Surprise Another Shower

So Cooper is 5weeks now and boy how he is growing. He had gained 3lbs at his 1month dr. appt. He is just doing really good although he is a fussy nurser and poos everytime he eats so I don't know where he is getting all this weight from. Also my work surprised me on Wednesday with another baby shower. That's three so far for Cooper!!! Chuck was good at keeping that a secret again...boy is he good a secrets.

Cooper Is 1 Month Old

My little baby has turned one month old yesterday! I am a kinda sad. Time goes by so fast...I just want him to stay tiny forever. But Cooper just keeps growing.

Stop growing so fast Coop, let your poor sweet mom keep you a baby for a little longer.

Our Three Boys

Time to see Santa

So we ventured out on Black Friday to see Santa! Luckily it wasn't too far and we didn't have to tgo to the mall! They set up a Santa Shack in the same shoppong center as Chuck's office, there were no lines and you could take your own photos and give a donation.. so nice and easy!!! The only thing was it was super cold that day so Cooper cried when I took him out of the car seat.

Thanksgiving

We had a very nice Thanksgiving this year. It was very small and relaxing. Chuck's parents came up and cooked for us. (I did make the greenbean casserole.) The boys had fun and Copper was a good little baby!!

Well it's been two weeks and I am finally announcing our newest addition.

Been Busy - Surprise Shower

Wow this last month has been busy. With football and work and getting ready for baby, I literally have like no time. My sweet friends at church had a small shower for me two weeks ago Sat. and we had a great time. I dont have any photos from that one but this last weekend the Edward Jones family (Chuck's co workers and family) threw me a SURPRISE shower. I had no idea. Chuck keeps good secrets. Chuck's family came up again for the second weekend in a row( how sweet are they!?!). It was alot of fun and I appreciated all they things we recieved!!! Here are some pics from that weekend. The boys also had their Primary program Sunday and did very good.

Meet Our Flag Football Players !!

Look at our Flag Football Players !!!

See them in action. They are having a great time learning a new sport. I wish I had video of them. They are doing awesome!!!

Exploring DC with the Heids

WOW !!
There is so much to see in Washington DC. And it was much cleaner that I had thought it was gonna be too. As you can see we had a good time being together. We were so excited just to see Summer, Trevor, and Madi. Although we didn't have alot of time to see everything we picked the most important to us and got through it. The children were pretty good considering we dragged them everywhere and Brayden did almost get us in trouble at the Lincoln Memorial.
Oh and next time we will know where we are eating beforehand,or at least know how to get there the easy fast way. I am so glad we had a chance to take our kids to these special places. Even though they don't understand the importance now they will later. Thanks for meeting up with us Sum & Trev. We have to get together again soon.
