Update on US!

So, I know Aiden has been 2 for more than a month, and yet that is all that has been going on this blog *ashamed*.

Our boys are getting so big and keep our life so full of love, laughter, and late nights. Well, its usually Cooper keeping the late nighters going.


Lets start with Aiden. He is just a peanut. He weighs 23 lbs (only 10th percentile) and is 32 inches tall (only 5th percentile) and thinks he is 6 feet tall and bulletproof. He can now speak in full sentences and we can understand about 75% of what he says at any given moment. He pat pats all of his stuffed animals, burps and "breastfeeds" (hehe) his babydoll, and gives Cooper hugs and kisses several times a day! Gavin is probably his favorite person, but LOVES LOVES LOVES to play with his other little friends. We say his prayers at night and he can now say "Heavenly Father" after I say "Dear..." He usually blesses the ball game first and then Gavin. Mommy and Daddy, Cooper and Tullah usually get in there, and if we remind him he gets the grandparents in as well. Sometimes prayers can go off in a tangent as he needs to bless the ball game and then say, "and Gavin's ballgame too....and Addy's ball game too...and continues to name everyone's ball game. This brings me to his next favorite thing....going to his cousin's ball games. We have spent many evenings at the ballpark this summer, because Aiden just LOVES it! He is fascinated with Trucks, Motorcycles, Airplanes, and Helicopters! We love our little man, and are so proud to see him becoming such a polite, sweet, loving (he loves his stuffed animals and his baby he has named Libby), full of energy little man!

Cooper is next!!! I forgot how quickly they grow! I don't know how much he weighs or how long he is...he has a pedi appointment on Monday, so Iwill update then. He is smiling, laughing, "talking" and trying his darndest to roll over! Most babies will roll from belly to back first because they don't like to be on their bellies, but Cooper LOVES his belly and prefers to sleep this way. He is working on rolling from back to belly! We are starting to get his reflux under control a little better. Right now he is on previcid 1x a day and is seeing the chiropractor 1x a week. They both seem to make a significant difference! He loves his big brother and smiles so brightly when Aiden talks to him. They have reserved a language all for them! It is so cute to watch! Cooper is as of right now a MOMMA'S BOY! He loves his Daddy, but I am pretty sure he'd crawl back inside of me if he could! Lets just say that the peanut shell and baby bjorn have come in handy!

We love our boys and wouldn't trade them for the world! I love watching them grow up and learn new things. I love to hear Aiden's perspective on the world! I love to see Cooper's eyes light up when you say his name! Their smiles are what I live for! They make me happy to get up everyday, even when I don't want to!
To Josh, I am so proud to have you as my husband, partner in life, and the father of my children! You are a wonderful person and a great Daddy! Our 6 year anniversary is Saturday, and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you!
