Saturday with grandma and grandpa

Joshua is in Vegas and I had to work a crop all day on Saturday (1/16/10) so the kids spent the day in Wichita with mom and dad. They stayed very busy all day at Aunt Cori's volleyball tournament, Great Plains Nature Center, visiting great grandpa and grandma Meyer, and just a little bit of shopping. Cooper was a good little boy for them (PHEW!) and he had a great time. There aren't to many pictures to share, but they got a few taken.

Cooper was being ornery (what's new?) while grandma was trying to get his picture. Grandma said, "Cooper please give grandma a normal smile." Cooper threw his arms together and said, "FINE!" Normally, I get upset when he talks to us this way (because it isn't normally in a nice tone or at an appropriate time), but this time it was cute......and so is the picture!

Cooper was one tired little boy at the end of the day. He climbed up into grandma's lap and within 5 min. he was out. Daddy even called right before he started to nod off and he didn't show much interest in talking.

Cooper says....

This part of the post is more for me than anything. I want to be able to remember some of the things Cooper says that we find funny (even when we shouldn't).

Maylea crawled over to my Jade plant and was playing in the dirt. She was trying to put some of it in her mouth when Cooper saw her and ran over, "no no baby sister, that is not grandma's special dirt. You don't eat it." (Grandma makes the Oreo and chocolate pudding stuff and Cooper loves to ask grandma if he can eat some dirt. She even makes it in a flower pot for him!)

I had Maylea sitting on my lap and was saying, "ma ma ma ma, da da da da". Cooper comes running out of his room, "brrrooooottttthhhhheeerrrrr, brrrooootttthhhheeerrrrrr".

While I was home with the kids during a snow day, Cooper was playing in his room. When I walked in I found such a mess. He had found the cake topper from our wedding and had taken it out and broke the Styrofoam up into so many pieces. The stuff was everywhere. The little white balls were sticking to EVERYTHING thanks to the dry/static air. It was such a mess. I grabbed Cooper and we were in the bathroom washing his hands (still can't remember why) when Cooper looks up at me and says, "momma are you pissed off?" Not gonna lie, I was so mad, but at that point I was so shocked that came out of his mouth I had to fight back a smile. He said it so seriously!
