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.

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.

Happy Halloween

Here are your Halloween characters for this year.

"Married" Cinderella in her wedding gown

And astronaut Cooper

We also had a couple trunk or treats (one at each school) and here is a picture of our pirate trunk.

And our little storm strooper Cooper

Cooper is 9 months

Cooper turned 9 months last week. He doesn't exactly lay or sit in his bassinet like he did a few months ago

He even figured out he had a sticker on his shirt.

Here is a video of him walking behind his shopping cart.

His new favorite thing is to open the cabinets and pull all the stuff out while he says "no, no"
