We had a little shindig at the house for Cooper's 3rd birthday. We had a train theme (he wanted Thomas, but I just couldn't do it) and got a huge slide (thanks Heather!) Kids and adults had so much fun with just a few minor injuries.
My hot husband injuring his knee on the slide!
Both my boys going down backward
Even Maggie took a few slides!
Cooper wrote his name and we were so impressed. He's been tracing and writing with assistance for a while. But he copies the whole thing now....of course we think he's brilliant.
For his birthday shirt I cut a three out of camo material and sewed it on a white t-shirt. I had the hardest time finding a normal birthday shirt for a boy. My complaint is that there is soooo much girl stuff our there and almost nothing normal for boys! I know I will have no problem finding one for Maggie.
This picture makes my heart soar! I have dreamed of this girl my whole life and she's absolutely perfect! I cannot conceal my smile every time I see it. The outfit, the smile, the baby girl, those thighs, the flower....I love it all!!
On his actual birthday he chose spaghetti for the meal and since he had already had a cake at Mary's and a cupcake, we put a candle in the noodles. He gave his signature shy smile as we sang, then he gobbled it up...three years passed so quickly!
This is such a good depiction of the moment...all action! He loved the slide, couldn't wait to get back up, ran around all day w/o stopping and loved every minute of it. It was so sad to give the slide back...we'll have to get it again soon!
This is the train cake I made. My hand is still sore and it was finished only moments before the guests arrived...but I made it myself!
Here's our new fall outfits. This is once again the best of 50 pictures. I love these kids!

They both are so adorable. They are just growing up way to fast. Cooper is such a handsome young man. That pictue of Maggie J is the best picture she ever taken in her short career. Absolutely STUNNING. really made our day.
Love mom and dad.
So stinkin' C.U.T.E. Loved all the pictures, wish we could have been there!!! Cooper is adorable, Mags is a babe, Aimee is beyond talented and Shaun is a whimp (hurt on a kids slide????) just kidding, :) love you all!
Cute cake- that's a lot of hard work! I bet he loved it!
I love Maggie's look- my girls couldn't do big head bows because it made them look too Rambo. (they had really big, round heads...esp. Kacy)- her face is too [insert word for cute here]!
tell Shaun we've had some injuries with the fam on those things- ranging from worn out grandpa to black eyed nephew.
