Emily was very excited to be on stage for her Christmas program at school.

She was singing and doing all the hand motions.

She held the candle.

And even made the big screen singing.

She also had a short performance at her dance school. She is wearing all white.

Cooper is walking now, everywhere

Bo needs stitches on his chin

I received a call from Bo's school nurse today. Apparently, he was playing on the playground and slipped going up the slide. She said he cut up his chin pretty good and would probably need stitches. 

Luckily, Mommy was off school today so she picked him up and took him to the urgent care to get stitched up. I think he was very nervous but made it through. It looks like 4 stitches. Here are some pictures they sent me.

New Star Wars movie

Bo and Daddy have been waiting all year to go see the new Star Wars movie. On Saturday, the day had finally arrived.

 

We went to the first show in the morning which was sold out so Bo was sure to wear his storm trooper outfit.

Bo was very excited to go to the dine-in theatre where you just push a button and they deliver you popcorn, candy, and soda.

Dinner with Santa at the zoo

Someone was a little scared of Santa.

Cooper was wearing reindeer antlers but kept taking them off.

Frosty the snowman visited but Cooper was more interested in eating real table food.

Rudolph came a little too close.

After dinner, we walked around the zoo to look at lights. It was a little cold so Cooper was very bundled up.

Cooper at 10 months

This is a video of Cooper giggling with Daddy and Emily

Someone was ten months last week. He doesn't like being in this bassinet anymore as he is walking in his own everywhere now.

Happy Turkey day

We started Thanksgiving morning with the Chesterfield Turkey Trot Kids Fun run which is a quarter of a mile. This was Emily's first time running and she didn't want to do it. We were able to bribe her with a medal at the end.

After the run it was very nice out so the kids climbed around at the park.

Here is a picture of Little Man with his first Turkey day t-shirt.

Cooper the daredevil

Yes, Cooper is starting to take some small steps on his own. However, he prefers to live a little dangerous and is quite proud of himself.

Cooper learned a new trick too by watching the two older ones. Monkey see monkey do.

Emily's 5th birthday

For Emily's 5th birthday we had a princess party at Once Upon a Bash. 

 Here is a picture of pirate Cooper

 Cinderella visited her and read a story

 They made some magic wands.

 Someone found a gold doubloon.

 Pirate Bo was there and he brought his own costume.

 She had plenty of presents.

 A princess cupcake

 and a giant cupcake

Happy Birthday Sweetie!!!!

Emily's field trip and thankful party

Emily had a field trip this week to the recycling center. They were studying this at school so to finish up their project they went to visit.

She was not impressed with the smell.

Cooper tagged along too. It was his first field trip. It wiped him out.

Emily had a thankful party last week where they sang a song

She made a cross and a list of her things she is thankful for hanging on the wall. It says Beds, Books, and food. Does that sum up Emily.

Team USA comes to St. Louis

Team USA came to St. Louis last week so we took the family. Everyone was in their gear and chanting "We believe that we will win"

 Emily was very excited when USA scored. Her competitiveness was showing by checking the scoreboard every 5mins to make sure our team was still winning.
