an afternoon at the pool and D's goose egg

swimming with Nana

They love Nana's reading

D fell right on his head at the pool. He got a big goose egg.

Happy Birthday, Aunt Suze!

R might not know the difference between an uncle and an aunt.

Our birthday photo for Daddy

Happy Birthday, Daddy!

Happy Birthday! We wish you were here today! We miss you!

Daddy's new hat

Where did she get this pose from?

E's egg patty face

We sometimes have egg patty faces for dinner, which is just an egg scrambled in the shape of a circle with a face made of ketchup.

He's crying because R said the face he made on his egg patty looked like Uncle Ricky (because it had a mustache).
"IT DOES NOT LOOK LIKE UNCLE RICKY!"

E's cupcake recipe

He wanted to bake cupcakes. He created his own recipe with flour, sugar, vanilla, salt, oil, baking powder, eggs, milk, chocolate chips, M&Ms, marshmallows, nestle crunch bars, and rainbow sprinkles. They came out tasting like biscuits with candy in them.

bouncy house at Chase's 1st birthday party

D was climbing up the stairs and going down the slide all by himself.

Look how big Tyler is now!

Happy Birthday, cousin!

E picks the pumpkin

E said it was time to pick the pumpkin because the stem was brown. He had read that in a book.

21 months old and D is already a baseball player

Tea Party camp

R and some of her friends had a tea party camp. They went to a different house to play for a few hours each morning this week. These are some photos sent to me by other moms and some from our house today.

bedtime reading with Daddy

They love it when Daddy is home to read to them and lay with them at bedtime.

D's 1st dentist visit

He did okay. Reluctantly let the dentist brush his teeth. R didn't!

our cucumber

Grandma planted cucumbers on the deck and we got one, but it had mold on it, so we threw it to the deer.

meet up with old playgroup

We've had these friends since we were babies.

our pumpkin

Disney World gives out seeds every year during their flower and garden festival. Last year it was watermelon seeds and this year it was pumpkins. When E asks if he can plant the seeds, I guess I should be more specific about where he plants them from now on. We have a pumpkin patch in our front yard. Their were two pumpkins growing, but the other one died.

E made the community newsletter again!

3rd time in a row that one of the Coppy kids is in it.

D finds a lollipop

D figured out how to open a lollipop. Fortunately, he didn't know what it was for and just walked around with it for a little while and then dropped it.

Love that he is holding onto the donut

Bye bye

He was sad when we left because he didn't get to have an ice cream cone.

R wanted to take a photo with a sad face too.
