Attempting to win a contest...

The diaper company, AMP, that we bought our diapers from is having a contest! So I thought I'd enter, I mean how could our cute kids not win. 




Now we're just getting goofy!

And yes, climbing on Coop is still a regular occurrence.



But he LOVES it!



Some new pottery!!

A pre ordered butter dish! So yes, I sold my first piece of pottery!!! YAY! It turned out great! Now if only I had time to make on for myself! 


Just a pitcher/ or decorative piece.

Potty Training...

We have been trying to get Sawyer to go on pee and poop on the toilet. And potty training Sawyer means potty training baby. 

This is what happens when Sawyer is 'training' her baby. The bathroom floor was dripping wet, as was the doll. :) 

We now have to watch to see if she is going to 'train'/drown her babies in the toilet because they have to 'go poop'!

Morgan's cake

Every now and then Morgan gets an inkling to make a chocolate cake. (Not sure why the chocolate seeing as he doesn't like it...). Anyways this is Morgan's cake decorating experience. He even got to use my icing set before I did. 




YUMM!! 


So much concentration! 


The finished product! 

The past month

Sawyer figured out how to 'share' Coopers chair.  
Daddy came home! 

Cooper started sleeping 12 hour nights!!! 

Cooper gets LOTS of love

Fake napping. Cooper isn't too good at it yet. 

He's getting so big!

Lots of tickles! 

Has rolled over twice already!

Loves new outfits from Grandma and Grandpa

And this is how she wears them.

I'm pretty sure this is how Cooper really feels about getting sat on, even if she is only 22 lbs. 

Lots of smiles and giggles.

Our trip to BC - finally!

I was once again 'abandoned' by Morgan this January/February...so we headed to BC during February to kill time and visit with friends and family. We were blessed to see many friends along the way. Our first stop was with the Morgans in Didsbury. It is always such a treat to spend time with Mike and Darlene. 

Mike and Sawyer playing animals. 
After we left Didsbury we headed to Calgary to meet my parents (but I didn't take any pictures of our time there). We spent time with my Aunt and Uncle who live there. I was also able to have supper with Cheryl, an old college roommate! She got to meet Coop for the first time!

We finally got to BC after a great day of traveling, both kids were troopers. We only stopped once during our 10 hour drive from Calgary to Chilliwack.

Sawyer and Aunt Mav. Saywer loved being outside, no snow to trip on ;)

First time in a sandbox!! Loved it!


 Our first full day in BC we headed to Abbotsford to catch Matt's volleyball. It was great to see almost all of the Kaminskis!
Enjoying treats with Tannis
 After the volleyball game my parents took me to the ferry terminal. I was able to spend a day and half with Renee, my first year roommate, and great friend! Did I also say that I got to leave the kids with Grandma and Grandpa! It was so great!

The beautiful ocean! 

The beautiful Renee!! 






We had a lot of catching up to do - so we shopped, watched movies, and ate cheesecake! 


I was also blessed to visit with Shawna, a great friend from Elm Creek! It seems like we could never run out of things to talk about! 

 We also were able to visit my Grandma a couple of times! It was hard to see her, not knowing the next time I would be able to see her. It is unfortunate that our kids probably won't remember her.
Sawyer enjoying the canary!  
and the rocking horse! 

4 generations! 

We were able to have lunch with a dear friend, Danielle. Sawyer didn't want to have her picture taken (which is so unlike her). 

Ready to watch another Bearcat game!! GO Matt GOOOOO! 

We were also able to see Tricia (had a great supper making pizzas)!! 

Must've been an intense moment.

It was such a great trip. As always we were able to see our friends at CBC - Craig, Justin, Deanna, Jer, Dan, Mike, Michael and even Phil. We have so many friends in BC it was hard to see them all. Maybe next time!! I have a few videos of Sawyer cheering at the volleyball games. I'll try and post them soon!
