First Dentist Visit

Cooper is two days from being 13 months, and today he had his very first dentist appointment. He has four teeth on the top and four teeth on the bottom. I think Cooper gets his teeth pretty quickly and maybe even a little early compared to others.

The pediatric dentist thought Cooper was just a hoot. And, Cooper thought the dentist office was a hoot-very bright and colorful with lots of toys. An amazingly exciting dentist office.

When Cooper laid back in my arms into the dentist's lap he suddenly was a little frightened and was unsure of what it was that we were looking at. He cried, but was a strong boy. He even got to visit the treasure chest when he was finished.

The dentist said Cooper's teeth look wonderful, however, he said to be prepared for the two molars that are about to come in. Michael and I thought to ourself, yep, we figured-he's been drooling uncontrollably lately.

Our little man keeps growing up so fast. It's hard to keep up. The small moments truly do matter. Capture what you can because time flies right by you if your not careful.

Mother's Day: A Whole New Meaning!

A Mother's Love Fills the Air... Today... And Everyday! It's Sunday morning, I wake up excited because today the family gathers together at our house for Mother's Day. Nothing makes me more happy than having the family under one roof. The last time the family was together at our house was the day we announced we are pregnant. Mother's Day is a day dedicated to mothers all around the world—a time to celebrate a mother's loving heart, her tender touch, her ability to always say the right thing, and her amazing know how (a mother knows everything). Michael and I our blessed to be surrounded by the most magnificent mothers. I'm excited to say that I have BIG shoes to fill... I have a mother and a mother-in-law who are super heroes; although, I know that with the support of each of these wonderful, brilliant women, I will be the next generation super-hero mom. I have learned that LOVE conquers all and PATIENCE is key. Michael and I thank our wonderful moms. We l...

Family Day Trip

It has been months since we have gotten out of the house for a full day. It felt so good to "see" the world once again. The blue skies, the green trees, and the chirping birds were what we needed! We started the day by packing the car with our lunches, jackets, and masks. By 9am we were out the door headed for Rye, Colorado. Here we saw Bishop Castle. We climbed many stairs, many which were made of stone and some made of metal too. The higher we went, the more wobbly the stairs—yes, it was a little scary, but we ALL were brave. It was fun watching you guys get so excited about all the hidden areas that you could go into. Nothing was off limits. Hand Sculpture Best Kids Ever! Best Fun Large Chair Top of the Castle First set of stairs that we climbed! Wobbly Bridge - Scary! After walking around this very unique castle, we found a lovely lake called Lake Isabel and ate our lunch right on the water. We watched a fire helicopter pick ...

Many Firsts While Camping

Undoubtedly, this is a camping trip that will go down in the books. Each day was packed with many fun and adventurous experiences. After two days of packing the camper (you kids need a lot of extra "stuff"), we pulled out of our driveway and almost 8 hours later we finally arrived at Ridewau State Park. The drive down had some awesome moments and some other moments filled with tears. This was a long drive for both Rea and Cooper. This was the first long drive yet. Here in another couple of weeks we will be taking a much longer drive, this shall be interesting. We met Grammy and Papa at the campground, they were thrilled to see the babes because they've been out of town for the past two weeks. More importantly, our little darlings were even more thrilled to see the wonderful Grammy and fun Papa. Together, we spent our days fishing at the upper and lower ponds. Cooper entered into his very first fishing derby where he won a certificate for the youngest boy who caught the ...

We'll love you forever...
