Picky, Picky, Picky...

As we all know Cam is pretty particular about his stuff. Well, Leca gave him this teddy bear for his 1st birthday and he has slept with is every night since then (don't worry with plenty of washing in between). The sad day has come that the bears mouth has come off! Cam brought it to me the other day and told me that it's "not allowed" back into his room until it is fixed. It's yucky and sad looking so it can't come back until it's better!
So I have a little work to do before it can be repaired and "allowed" back into his bedroom! Poor teddy bear. Thank you to my handsome models (Cam refused to even hold it or take a picture with the broken bear). His little world has to be just so or else we have issues! I wonder where he got the up tight attitude from?!?!

Lion...

This little lion might not be as cute as he looks! Yes it's the middle of the day and I just gave him another bath! He is the kid with SUPER blow out skills!!! One day I ended up giving him 5 BATHS!!! It's not like I am being crazy...it's bad enough that he needs a bath! So one little lion equals a lot of messes!!!
This one's for you Cheri. She wanted me to try a faux hawk with Coop. To bad the little guy only has 1 spot on his head that his hair grows. He can do a serious baby comb over (which I have already cut off before but it keeps coming back) but no faux hawk. He's got to much curl so it just curls back on top of his head. Sorry Coop...you might have hair troubles for good!

Bed time

Sorry I haven't updated in a while again. Chris is working crazy hours at work and then he comes home and is on the computer working so here is just a random picture from the other night. The boys love to read books in bed before bed time. I love my little family!

Coop...

I think it's just as I expected...little man #2 is a little trouble maker. He has figured out that when he whines and cries I pick him up he smiles and starts doing his cute baby talk! Yeah he's only 3 months but is already workin' his momma over. He also loves his passy and hands. Lately he's been putting his thumb in the whole of the passy so he can have the best of both worlds. So much personality already, just wait until he can talk!!!

Imagine...

I couldn't help myself when I saw the little man all dressed up playing tonight before bedtime....
He is Super-Batman, Superman, Wonder pets, Doggy, Construction guy!!! I know I think he might have to work on shortening the super title!

Update...

Chris wanted me to post this to show it's not just daddy's that fall asleep with their kids...Oops busted!
As his little shirt states this is "mommy's little monkey." Cam has Gweeno and I have Cooper...hey it's works!
Cam was all ready to watch the USC game with daddy (and especially to eat treats in the family room)
Chris and my dad built Cam a really cool train track before I had Cooper. Well it's gotten a little dirty so we thought it would be cool to paint it and maybe add a few buildings or something. Well...I think we got a little carried away but here it is almost finished...
We stripped all the track off and started from scratch
A quick base coat and paint the track Then to work on the layout and buildings

I had to make sure the boys were a part of the whole thing too so here are their little hand prints included in their own railroad logo
Thomas the Train buildings are WAY to expensive for us so we went to Michaels and bought some bird houses. Chris cut the wholes and I painted them. One is a log cabin and the other is a little barn with a fence and animals. You can see a little of the lake (the lake was a special request from Cam) And yes that is grass and beach sand too. Chris had some from his model train days that I used.
So here it is almost finished. The barn tunnel, cranky the crain, the airport and hanger, the road and parking lot, the stop and go light, the lake, and the log cabin. I hope that's enough to keep his interest!

At it again...

Cheri and I were at it again this afternoon taking pictures. It was Coops turn this time so here are two of the best shots. Cheri is amazing and I think we make a pretty great team!
This little face is calling for smoochies!!! Thanks Cher!

The Boys...

The little man is really smiley all the time now so here are just a couple of shots Chris took from the other night.
Cam is proud as can be that he has his net railing off his bed so it's officially a "real" big boy bed!
Gweeno Gweeno and Cam all ready for church.

The black screen...
I know it's been a while since I posted but it's because about 5 days ago our computer went to the deadly BLACK SCREEN!!! It wouldn't do anything! So we had to reformat the whole thing. So here are quite a few pictures... This is the "naughty guy"

Cam loves this hat because when he puts it on he says "Now I am the naughty guy!!!" I guess he doesn't want to be to specific on which naughty guy character he wants to be so its all of them! I have to admit I think he's a super cute naughty guy so I am cool with him wearing it whenever he wants!
This ones for you Lec! Remember these old overalls?!?!
Chris is getting ready for the USC season and so he thought I should get the old jersey and pants ready for Coop. This is Cam about 9 or 10 months old in it....

This is Skinny Buns at 2 1/2 years old with the same outfit on over his jammies!!!! Yikes! Maybe a growth spurt is on the way?!?!
Coop got the awful Brett Favre jersey instead...poor younger brother!
Labor Day started WAY to early for us this year so Chris made the boys watch TV while he could sleep a little more

We washed our cars...and bikes after we went to Swiss Days in Heber City. It was HOT and a lot of walking and hundreds of people so we didn't take any pictures there we went and came home really fast! All I have to say on Chris's behalf was that it was 180 tents with crafts and stuff in them...he's a great sport!
Cam wanted to help rinse the car...
one cup at a time!

Friday night is movie night so this week we made a fort in the family room to go with the movie and treats!
We had a little technical difficulty with the fort (I guess it's been a while since I made a fort I am a little rusty!)
This is what happens when Daddy does diaper changes. He was mad he forgot to snap the shirt so he left Coop like this instead! Yikes!
