First, I have a new nephew! I am going to Tulsa tomorrow to go see him, oh yea, and my sister! Here's a pic of the little guy!
Cooper lately has been doing the sweetest thing that he learned from his daddy.
He gets really close to you and whispers, "I unna tell you a secret"
Of course, we reply, "what?"
He grabs your face with both hands and whispers, "I uv you!"
Talk about making me melt! I love you too buddy! Everything about you makes me crazy obsessed and I want to kiss your cheeks off!
We were at the mall on Friday and this lady in the elevator was checking out our clan and saying how cute the kids are. She then asked the boys what their names were...Owen quickly replied, "I'm Owen", then Cooper said in all seriousness, "DeMarco Murray". Blake and I giggled and looked up at the lady. She said, "Guacamole?" It made us laugh even harder. We then explained what he said and that it really wasn't his name! So much for picking cute names for your kids...we should have known if any of them would rename themselves, it would be Cooperman!
Lately, we've (by we, I mean Owen and Cooper) been losing our TV privileges as a method to discipline the boys for poor choices. It works like a charm because they LOVE to just have the TV on. I know, what am I creating??? Anyway, this has led to some other forms of entertainment that I love to see!
Here they are in their "fort" playing roll the ball. I mean, come on, we've got some cool toys! But my kids really don't care about toys! Look at Cooper's face! You know it's hard to draw a line with him and that grin!
Sadie has started coo-ing more and has finally smiled while awake! She is much like Owen and seems to be pretty serious and pretty sleepy! So, when she smiled yesterday and today...we were tickled pink! I have found myself acting like a goon trying to get her to smile!
I have also been working on her room, finally! So, here are the latest things I have done. We did this for the boys with the pictures of their birthmom over their crib. It's not only cool for the kids, but a great reminder for us of how blessed we are through adoption.Since Sadie's initials are all "S" I have decided to not over do it and just do one! I like it!
And this is my favorite wall now!
And just in case you forgot how adorable she was... our little princess!
