Boys Only

Any time I have the camera out, Cooper wants a picture taken.  He really doesn’t like being in front of the camera but he loves looking at himself!  I was taken a few pictures to demonstrate a colour tool at work and Cooper wanted to be involved.  I used the self-timer on the camera and then Cooper and I ran, sat down and posed for the camera!

Mother's Day

Normally, every holiday and birthday in our house gets celebrated with cinnamon and sugar donuts.  That all changed on Mother’s Day.  Victoria wanted something different and I surprised the kids with frozen waffles for Mummy.  While this sounded like a great plan, I didn’t count on Ellie and Cooper liking them so much.  They would have eaten the whole box, but they did leave one waffle for Mummy.  Next holiday, I think we will do this again but we will buy 2 boxes!  

You might be wondering why the waffle box is on the sofa.  Cooper couldn’t wait to have then, so he carried the box around until it was time to toast them!

Puzzles

Cooper is very good at puzzles.  He has mastered all of our simple puzzles and now puts together 100 piece puzzles all by himself.

Stacking Robots

Cooper has been playing with the stacking robots for months now.  He can stack the robots 3 or 4 high only if they are directly on top of each other, together we can stack them in other ways.  This day, he completely surprised me by stacking them in a V shape all by himself!

Princess Game

Cooper has started playing with Ellie’s princess game.  We have taught him the basics of the puzzle.  When the prince makes it to the princess, sometimes they kiss each other and other times the prince knocks off the princess of the blocks.

Building

We purchased some big rolling drawers for under Cooper’s bed.  They looked simple to put together but Ellie and Copper both though I needed help.

Sick - Large Bowl

Poor cooper had a tummy bug.  This is the first time he was sick in a while and the first time he understood what was happening.  He carried this big bowl around with him everywhere and placed it next to himself when he sat or laid down.
