Saturday we went on our annual hay rack ride, we are supposed to sing Christmas carols, but this time we were taking care of screaming kids! FUN!! So one Sat. on my way to the gym I stopped at a yard sale and found this exer saucer and another fun toy for cooper, all in brand new condition! He loves it!!




We are constantly telling Ryder to get off of the baby, he lays on him and gets an inch away from his face, cooper likes it for like two seconds, and then gets annoyed!
Thanksgiving was so fun for me, all my family was here, cousins aunt and uncles that I never see so it was fun and then the next morning my mom and I went shopping we were up at 3 and were done about 7 and we got allot done, I am almost done with Christmas and that feels pretty good!!

Snugly Warm for Winter!!


So I had to post this cute picture of Cooper, it is rare he is on his tummy, Ryder was asleep so I was able to give him a little tummy time. He looks so Chill!!!:)









So once again my Father-in-law went way over and beyond this year for Christmas, I am so thrilled to have a fire place to keep this room warm, ever since we ripped our carpet out the room just isn't as warm, so now we have heat!!! Ryder sits and watches it, and compliments how awesome it is. Shaun is going to hang the TV on the wall, and I cant wait to have all the little projects around the house done! So thanks Dad McKean, you are so generous and kind!

Halloween Fun??




Ryder refused to wear the hood of his costume?











So I was super excited for Halloween this year cause Ryder was at the age that he kind of understood it... well he failed to have a nap that afternoon, so at 4:45 he fell asleep on the floor in his cute giraffe costume, so we had to wake him up to go to the trunk or treat that started at 5, needless to say a ten minute nap just didn't do it for him!!! We went to the church and had dinner , so I just left the bowl of candy on the trunk of my car and while we were eating three punk kids helped themselves to all of my candy bowl plus three other bowls, I guess they came out pretty good, considering it was a small trunk or treat, its just candy but its pretty sad when you get stuff stolen at a church event??? I loved that Shaun was able to be there with me, he works every Sunday so it was nice for people to put a face to his name! I am totally excited, Tuesday Shaun goes to the doctor for his snoring, it started out with me just leaving half way through the night and sleeping on the couch, but now I just pull the bed from the couch and sleep in the living room, yes this is a little odd but i cannot handle the extremely loud snoring, I have to say it is the worst sound ever when you are trying to fall asleep,and i still hear him through the walls!!! I hope we can solve this problem!! Cooper is starting to sleep through the night, which is great except I have milk coming out my eyeballs:) I just lay there waiting for him to wake up, just for example i pumped 12 ounces the other morning!!! Also the pregnancy weight is starting to slowly come off, thank heavens!! So there you have it, an update on the past few days!!
