Keeping Busy

When these two play happily together (which isn't very often!) I'm happy to see such a mess:
 Cooper and I had a fun time together on his preschool field trip.  He picked a pumpkin, saw lots of animals, played with the water pump, and went through the little corn maze at least 20 times!
 I highly recommend getting your piano tuned and fixed up.  It made such a difference.
 The kids had a fun time at the primary party.  In this picture, they are throwing stones and arrows at Samuel the Lamanite (also known as Grandpa!).
 Cooking with the boys is always exciting...
 Oliver thinks my mat on the floor is the best place to put all his vehicles.
 Cooper continues to be the best helper.  He helped his daddy build all the storage shelves in our garage storage room.
 After Ethan had a rough evening, Madeline stayed up late making him an award to present to him the next morning.  She's always thoughtful like that.  And it sure made him feel happy!  "Awesome Award - Best Big Brother"
 While Dad was out of town, we enjoyed pumpkin treats.  These pumpkin cookies were made by all four kids and one mom trying to not be stressed about the four kids all helping!  Ha!
 They were SOOOOO yummy!
 I'm slightly obsessed with pumpkin stuff.  This was my lunch the other day.  Followed by more pumpkin cookies.  And I may or may not have had pumpkin waffles with more pumpkin butter for breakfast the next day.  Ahem.

Pumpkin Patch

Cold but fun!  We enjoyed selecting giant over-priced pumpkins, wandering through a corn maze, and drinking super delicious apple cider.  I really like Fall.

Cooper's First Fishing Trip

Cooper has been asking to go fishing with Grandpa for a long time.  He was very excited to finally get to go.  Nana and I got a kick out of his cuteness.
 He really liked chasing the ducks.
 I really liked watching him fish with Grandpa.

 Oliver had fun too!
 Cooper didn't catch any fish, but he still had fun.  He can't wait to go again.
 It was a cold but magical beautiful kind of morning.

23 Months Old

I'm not sure when he started changing from baby to boy
