High 5

When Granddad had Cooper give him a hard high 5, Granddad pretended that his hand fell off.  Cooper though this was so funny.  After a few days, Cooper made his hand disappear along with Granddad’s.  Cooper could not get enough of this game.

Skate Park Madness

Cooper is still riding his little pink bike at the stake park.  We are starting to bring his balance bike but he hasn’t made the switch yet.  He has been on it at least.  This day he was watching the bigger boys do trick on their skateboards and he wanted to try a jump.  Good thing Mummy was paying attention! 

Pirate Legos

This year for my birthday I received this awesome Lego pirate ship.  Both Ellie and Cooper helped me build it over a couple of days. Ellie is getting very good at building Legos.  She can look at the instructions, find the pieces and put them together.  She loves putting all the people / pirates together.  Here she combined some of her Legos with this set allowing the pirates could be confrontable when sleeping and giving a few of them magical powers with star wands.  Cooper on the other hand is just learning how to follow the Lego directions and enjoyed using the Lego pirate cannons, which do really shoot Legos.
