Our sweet ill boys

Meet Henry and Wyatt... before and after the flu has hit! We have had a run of influenza around here. Jonathan started it, and then Henry, and then me, and now Wyatt. This all started 8 days ago, but we are all still dealing with the symptoms. Of course, any parent hates to see their babies not well, especially when they are so little.

We were concerned for Wyatt since he is only 9 weeks and was running a 102.6 temp, but he seems to be doing better today and we are hoping that he is on the road to recovery with the rest of us. We sought good counsel and feel sure that, at least for now, he is safe. We wish you all good health in this spring weather!!

We can hardly wait for Spring!!

It's Official...

The house is up for sale! We're trying to take advantage of the market... we'll see what happens.

Henry was liking the whole coloring eggs thing... We didn't do it last year with him. So this was a pre-bed highlight last night. Of course, within seconds, he skipped the metal dipper and just went right into the dye with his fingers. How could he resist? I'm not sure what was more concerning to me... Henry getting dye on my kitchen table, or when I walked into the kitchen and saw Josh (Jonathan's youngest brother) and Jonathan coloring eggs together... :) Mom Cooper, I thought you would appreciate this! Jonathan said that you never let them color eggs growing up... I know he must be lying!

the Blue Crew

We ran the first race w/ the Blue Crew... Henry was so excited for the St. Patrick Day's run! :)

The boys

Here's a new pic of Wyatt... He's really filling out. He is over 12lbs now and is in the 90th percentile. So getting big fast. Henry is crazy as ever... we have to seriously limit his intake of blueberries or it wreaks havoc on his bowels! But... he is allowed one serving per day. He LOVES his "boodies" as he calls them.

Lots and lots of snow!

We're one week behind... but it's still amazing to think that this was last week on Friday, and now it's rainy and 50! The crazy midwest... Our neighbors built a snow slide for the sleds... the kids had tons of fun! It was really beautiful outside!

This one is for the Engle's...

Amy and Michael brought us dinner awhile ago. They also brought us dessert from Dorothy Lane!! Henry thoroughly enjoyed this.... :)

Henry is imitating us a lot lately. This is his "mommy" bunny... and he puts it in the baby carrier and walks around the house with it. Too funny... the other day he was calling Jonathan "babe" b/c that is what he hears me say. It was cute.

Wyatt is growing a lot. Jonathan comes home everyday from work and his first comment is how big his head is getting :) He is a sweetie and is getting more pleasant with every chiropractic appt we take him to. It is working miracles and he seems to be a much more comfortable and happy baby. We are so thankful!

The last snow

We're not moving as fast around here. And honestly, I think we've temporarily forgotten about the blog! :) Henry and Jonathan spent some time in the snow the last time it snowed... which was a while ago!

We are still working on the toilet with Henry... it's slow but steady. Well, maybe not exactly steady -- but we're in no hurry. And neither is he... :) He does like to read the mail while he sits there.
