Snow Day (a week late)

Ok so last week we had a dusting of snow for a couple of hours. We had some pretty big flakes, but it was not cold enough for it to stick. However we took advantage of the pretty little white stuff that we rarely see! Here are some pictures of the boys "playing" in the snow.

Cooper trying to eat some snow!Hudson was not to sure of the snow. He was ok with it falling, but he did not like it on the ground. He would not venture off of the patio b/c there was a slight dusting on the grass.
All bundled up and ready to play.
Like I said earlier.....a "slight dusting of snow!"
I walked in Hudson room tonight and this is what I saw. I thought that it was too cute of Hudson sitting with Daddy reading his books. He really loves his Daddy!!

Show Week at The Little Gym!

On Wednesdays Cooper goes to a sports class at The Little Gym! He loves this class and every week they learn/practice new sporting skills. If you know Cooper at all you know that he LOVES sports so this class is perfect for him! Anyways the past Wednesday, they had a show off week. Each child got to show their parents what they have learned over the past 4 months! I was such a cute "performance!" Here is Cooper getting into his stance waiting to play football.

Getting ready to flip on the uneven bars with Mr. Keith!
Hudson wanting to be as big as brother!Cooper on the uneven bars!
At the end of their performance, Mr. Keith presented them all with a medal. It was very cute! He would call their names and they would walk up on the "platform" to receive their medal. They were all very excited about their medals!!! Here is Cooper with his Little Gym medal!
The whole class sporting their medals!
Hudson wanted a medal too, but he settled for just being on the platform with brother!

A Visit with Friends!

So why does my child think that it is funny to pick his nose.... I guess because he knows that it grosses his mother out!!! This is Hudson newest thing! It drives me crazy. He will stick his finger so far up his nose that I am afraid that it is going to start bleeding!!! He will yell Momma until I turn around and stay "GROSS"!!!!!! Hopefully this will "new trick" will pass soon! This is Cooper's new thing.... serenading us with his rendition of "Jesus Love Me" and "Jesus Loves the Little Children." It is so cute because he really gets into the song!! He has even added a few whoo-hoos in there to make it more special!!
On Monday we went up to Manchester to visit with Deana and her boys, Dayne and Tallan. As always the boys had a blast playing together!! Itis too bad that we do not live closer together! Anyways, here are some pictures of our fun afternoon.
Dayne and Cooper playing Candyland!

Last but not least this is how Hudson feel asleep today. He fought going to sleep for a while, but eventually he gave in and passed out!!!

On Christmas morning Cooper woke up around 8:00 and we tried to procrastinate until Hudson woke up....but Cooper wanted no part in that plan. He kept saying, "Let's go wake up brother!! He wants to see what Santa left him!!" So eventually we woke up Hudson and went downstairs. They both loved their presents from Santa! They played with them for a little while and then we open gifts from each other! We all are so blessed! We all got so many nice gifts! I am convinced that our house now has as many toys as Toys R' Us. I cannot figure out where in the world we are going to put everything! I guess that this will push us in trying to really sell our house now!?!? Anyways, here are some pictures from Christmas day! Enjoy!

On Wednesday morning Bing, our elf, was no where to be found in the house. However he had left little pieces of paper with arrows marked for a path to follow. Cooper followed the path and it lead us straight to Bing. He was in Cooper's car seat waiting to go to Papaw's for breakfast and open gifts! We have really had fun with Bing this year, but I am glad that we only have one more night! I am out of ideas!!
