beach fun




We had so much fun at the beach this year. I am so happy we got to enjoy it before all the oil hit the coast. We really did spend most of our time at the pool this time. I got the kids life jackets and they both hopped in and took off. It was an easy summer of not having to chase babies around and make sure they don't fall in. We also got to see family on the Cooper side and I love getting to see everyone and catch up on everything. The Coopers are such a great family to be a part of :). We stayed wet for 7 days straight and loves it, can't wait to go back next year!!!

Schools out


Sophie had a great year at school. I can't believe it is already over. You know how people say "oh it goes so fast before you know it they will be 18". I always thought whatever but now that she is in school I totally get it now. I really enjoyed watching her grow and evolve this year, she is such a little sponge!!! We enrolled her in public school this next year for kindergarden, I think she is a little nervous but she is such a social bug that I know she will love it.

Eli finished early because we had a trip to the beach planned, but he has the BEST teacher and aides. He also had a great year and we have seen him change so much. He nows listens to us and will follow simple commands like come here, no, give it to Mommy...stuff that you know a 2 year old would get. He is making more choices with picture cards we have for food and drink which is good because it is just one more way for him to communicate with us. He is pretty much the sweetest little boy but we are excited cause we have seen the "terrible two's" attitude hit which we are more than happy for because that means he is progressing ....bring on the attitude :) he has said a few words in the past few weeks, he said Daddy 2x's and poor Tony about cried like a baby, it was the sweetest moment. He also said uhuh mama, telling me no. I was trying to stop him from going outside with daddy and he didn't like that at all. We have aslo heard all done, more and bubbles. Thanks for all your prayers for him!!! Next year he will go to school 3 times a week and we can't wait to see what he will learn next year.

Tony finished his masters, HOOORAY :) and now he has a degree in business entertainment. I am really proud of him!!!

So we are all chilling with no obligations and to tell you the truth we are bored out of our minds and I can't wait for school to start again :)
