Update








With Rob crazy at work the last couple of weeks I have been swamped at home with Cooper and Caddie. He has been leaving about 7am and we don't see him till 10 or 11pm every night. Cooper and Caddie are doing great and just working on getting bigger.

Cooper's big activities include learning new words and sounds. His newest thing is saying "toot-toot" whenever he sees anything that has wheels. Trains, cars, lawnmowers, trucks, and pretty much anything that moves he LOVES. Sitting in the car is a trip with him tooting and pointing at everything. He is beginning to recognize pictures and words and if in the mood will point out a ball, dog, ears, nose, mouth, feet, diaper, bellybutton, and duck in pictures. I can tell he is getting frustrated not being able to talk to me and tell me what he wants so Rob and I have been working with him on words! So hopefully soon he will have words to go along with the finger point.

Caddie is now smiling and trying to laugh. She loves to just look at you and smile away. She is still a little fussy but it is getting better day by day. I continue to take her out and let others watch her to try and get her use to other people. We are working on her taking a bottle and a paci, though she does not like either. The bottle is not so much a problem when she is really hungry. She is still sleeping very well which has been a HUGE blessing for both Rob and I!

Rob's new store opens up in the 14th. It is getting crazy and he continues to amaze his boss and the higher ups. I am so proud of how he has been manging his personal and professional life. The last couple of weeks have been hard but I am hoping with the opening approaching soon things will get back to normal. I do have to say in his defense he is still waking up with Cooper every morning and taking time to make him breakfast and spend at least an hour playing with him. It has been good for Cooper and has made the rest of the day easier on me. We are all excited for the opening and cannot wait to show everyone the new place when you come to visit.

I have been looking into going back to work 3-4 nights a week allowing me a chance to get out of the house and a little extra money to have fun with once Rob gets a few days off. I have the chance to transfer over to Flemings which would mean I could start working right away and make money from the start. We will see how that goes. I am working out about 2-3 times a week right now and would like to get back to 4-5 times. I am slowly loosing the baby weight and have about 20lbs to go to get back to where I was when I got pregnant with Cooper. So hopefully by Christmas I can get back into my pre baby jeans :)

Besides that all is well and we are just hanging tight!
