Our Little Owl

Party Time

Today was my friend Savannah's birthday party at a place called Play Activity Center and it was awesome! They had a room with a huge pit filled with foam blocks that we could dive into, a slide, a bouncy to jump on, a trampoline and lots of games for us to play together. We had a great time playing and laughing together - I can't wait to go back!

Cooper liked the foam pit too:

Mama couldn't resist once she saw how much fun we were having:

Getting ready for some parachute games:

And maybe the funniest thing to watch - Cooper's face in front of the giant fan:

We got to lay on the bouncy while it inflated - how cool is that?

Time to bounce!

Now for some pizza with my friends:

Sick Day

I had been sick for a few days, and was still running a little fever on Monday night (even though I mostly was feeling better), so that meant that I couldn't go to school on Tuesday...which meant that me and Mama got to spend the whole day together!

We decided that Daddy's car needed a big time bath, so we headed out to the car wash. I had a blast watching the cars getting cleaned, munching on an oatmeal raisin cookie, and making friends with everyone there. There was so much to discuss - the tile on the floor, my round belly, the plants around the lobby, my books and people's choice of pants.

Today ended up being an unexpected treat for me and Mama both - it was fun having the run of the house for a while, and Mama all to myself too! It didn't hurt that I got Mama's undivided attention all day so that she could give me lots of extra lovin to help me get all better. And guess what? It worked!

Taking a break from socializing to enjoy some cookie:

My feet got super disgusting after all my walking, so we had to take a quick foot bath:

After dumping all my Cheerios on the floor, I decided to lay down in them, and then feed them to myself. Brilliant!

Yum!

Enjoying some books in my favorite reading spot, right by the porch door:

Cooper is WALKING!

And doesn't like to wear pants...

UFO Workshop with Mama

Today me and Mama were off on yet another date to Lowe's - it was time to make a UFO full of aliens. I did most of the work, and when I decided to give Mama some of the building responsibility, she put the landing gear on backwards. Good grief. We had to have Mr. Andy take it off so that she could put it on the right way this time. Lucky for me, it turned out perfectly, and even has a blinking light on the top that I can turn off and on. Now, who wants to take a ride with me and the green guys?

Cooper's First Trip to Krispy Kreme

Tricky Business

All Mama and Daddy wanted was a picture of us boys in our Seattle Sounders shirts that Aunt Dayna sent us. A simple enough request, right? That is, until you combine first-thing-in-the-morning silliness with a couple of hams...then you get this:

Well, Cooper is certainly giddy in this one, and honestly I am not sure what I was thinking. At least we got a picture of Molly's best side:

5 pictures later...Cooper! Please look at the camera!!!

8 pictures later...okay, so Cooper is stuffing his face but looks cute, and I am making my can-this-please-be-over-so-I-can-get-on-with-my-day look:

I think this is the best we're gonna get this morning. At least Molly is still chewing her leg.

It's Party Time!

Finally, it's Saturday! I have been talking about this day for MONTHS and it's finally here! There were Spiderman decorations everywhere I looked, delicious food, my favoritest people in the whole world, gifts just for me and the whole day was all about me! Good things really do come to those who wait. It sure was worth it!

Hmmmmm.....looks like someone (we can leave names out of this) is a little impatient to get a taste of that awesome cake Bebe made...

Hanging out:

Two beautiful ladies. And one very silly one.

A little love from Papa & Bebe:

Explaining to Aunt Kelly the intricacies of Star Wars spacecraft:

Our Sena family with Coop:

Still got my paws on my Star Wars stuff while Bebe and Grandmama chatter away, completely oblivious to the awesomeness that is the AT-AT:

Oh boy ohboy ohboyohBOY it's time for cake!

Yep, it is every bit as delicious as it looks:

Cooper's a pro at this whole cake-eating business by now:

Whatchoo doin' Aunt Sara? I would be happy to share and wipe some of this on your eyelid, if you like:

The only thing that would make this better was if the spoon was edible too:

All cleaned up and ready for presents:

Ha HA! Now that big brother is distracted, I can finally get some playtime with Iron Man. I've been waiting for this moment for weeks:

Checking out one of my new coloring books:

And a Cars soccer ball:

Oh man and a tent just for my bed...

Oh awesome! A Seattle Sounders soccer shirt from Aunt Dayna. Do you know what you do when you score a goal in soccer? Allow me to demonstrate:

Who thought a bow and arrow set would be a good idea for a 4-year-old? Oh, of course, Aunt Kelly (she was right):

Okay, seriously? A sword and shield? Could my Aunt Kelly be any cooler?

Now, for the best present of all!

Alright, let's get this bed tent set up people:

While Cooper and Bebe look on:

No no no, Grandpa Tommy, it goes like THIS - see? It's right here in the directions:

Ta-daaaaa!! My very own fort:

Some of my favorite gals:

Here I am, yes, with a balloon again:

Playing with one of my other favorite presents of the day - Army Guys!
