Twos!

Wow - hard to believe, Lil C is two months and her brother B-man is going to have his second birthday soon. Though with Aunt Nae Nae's big wedding coming up, we celebrated this weekend!

Check me out in my cute baby legs. they are a little big, but oh so cute and keep me warm on our chilly mornings!

somtimes mom makes me laugh - we have so much fun together just talking back and forth. Can you see how light my hair is getting too?


Such a pretty girl! And a good eater - filling out for sure!


I am here in my carseat, which I do pretty well in. Sleeping is going well too - most nights I sleep from about 11pm to 3 or 4am. technically that's sleeping thru the night!



Posing for mommy!

Friday we had a double birthday for Brennan with his friend Ezra - they are ten days apart! It was fun and low key - just at a local park with a couple friends! We had brown bag lunches and just had a great time playing Ring Around the Rosey, eating cupcakes, playing in the sand volleyball court, and rocking the playground!
The birthday boys! Brennan and Ezra - they are killing their cupcakes!
It was so fun after the party b/c we started our new tradition of baking birthday cakes together. B did great at icing it, though as you can see, his finger went thru it a few times... (and I am not really a good cook, even from a box!) We had to add his new favorite characters too - McQueen and Mater!




Present time!
Check out my new vacumm - one of the two things Bman loves to do more than anything (the other is mowing the lawn). Yes, it is pink, but the options at Target were limited (either this or some cheapo thing for a baby), so we went with it, to dad's dismay........ B LOVES LOVES LOVES LOVES it! And it actually picks things up!

This was the BIG present - a tricycle for B! We had bought him a really cool one, but a friend gave us this one and it is just like new, so we went with it! Perfect!


Happy Twos B and C!

Wow - time flies!

So the last three weeks have been crazy - from a stay in the hospital with lil C (check out www.mccoolbaby.blogspot.com for details) to a visit from Mema, then Aunt Jessie, then 10 days in STL, we have been BUSY! And mama McCool goes back to work part time after Labor Day, right after Aunt Nae Nae's wedding (and who cannot wait for that?!!!!). Gosh, time flies. Campbell is almost two months, and Brennan is almost two years! Next week we do the two month check up, two year check up, and mama's postpartum check up - all at once (that will be a fun visit!). Here are pics from our life lately.
