Brooks Video

I finally got some video of Brooks skiing downloaded. It takes forever to load! Usually the battery on my camera dies before it is finished loading! Remember you can mute the music on the side bar before playing video.

Skiing with Mommy

Mike tries to take Brooks skiing on a regular basis. For what ever reason it has not really worked out from Brooks and I to go together. We finally made the time to get on the hill, with Daddy too. Brooks does so well skiing. It is amazing to me the progress he has made over the last year. I guess he is just bigger, stronger, and more coordinated in general which helps in the ski department, that and he had a great instructor this season.

We had a great time. Mike took some video of him and I just need to find the best one and get it downloaded! I am sure it won't be long and all 3 boys will be out skiing me!

Pile of Puppies

I looked over the rail the other day and this is what I saw. All three boys in one little boy chair. We have more than one chair boys!

They really like being together!

Another Birthday Party for Ty

And one last party to wrap up Birthday Week............We had a birthday party for Ty and his friends from school on the Saturday following his birthday. Sponge Bob is king at our house.

Ty and Isaac

Play Time!

Getting some air--I had one picture like this Ty jumped clear out of the frame

Cooper's turn It was a small crowd but we had a good time to wrap up birthday season at our house.

Ty's Birthday at School

Ty's birthday fell on a school day this year so he got to take cupcakes to school for snack. He was so excited.

Ty's class at Little Red--dang crown won't stay up. This little guy, Rhodes, has the exact same birthday as Ty.

Cooper's Birthday Pt 2

I just realized I did not get a very good picture of Cooper's birthday cake. We went out to family birthday dinner and then came home for cake and gifts.

Cooper's cake was Diego, Dora, and Boots themed cake.

I am 3 now!

I can't believe we made it to 3, 4, and 5! It seems like just yesterday they were all so little.

Time for gifts!

Cooper got an umbrella--the boys love going out in the rain. Now if it would just stop snowing long enough to rain.
He got lots of help from his big brothers.

Cooper had a really good birthday--now next year if we can get him to pick somewhere beside Subway for his birthday dinner.

Happy Birthday Coop!

Cooper's Birthday

Then it was Cooper's turn! Cooper was so happy to be 3! It is tradition in our family that you get a birthday cupcake for breakfast the morning of you birthday.Cooper wasted no time opening his box from Mimi and Papa. I think he had a pretty good idea it had a robe in it. Slippers tooI even broke down and bought the boy some strawberries and cream for his birthday breakfast! He was surprised and happy to get his favorite breakfast treat!

Modeling

Just like Cooper was close by in Ty's pictures, Ty was close by in all of Cooper's pictures. Before we started breakfast, Cooper looked at Ty and said, "I am 3 now just like you, to which Ty replied nope I am already 4" Cooper thought and thought and thought and then just went on. I am guessing he will always be chasing Ty, but Ty will always have one full year and a day on him.

Two clean boys in their robes!
