Cooper's Baptism

This past weekend we had Cooper baptized. He was such a champ and didn't make a peep! It was great to have our entire family there to celebrate his special day. He looked pretty darn cute too!

Go Broncos

Everyone in Denver is super excited about the Broncos this year........our house included. The boys were sporting their matching Manning jerseys today in support of the Broncos! Now lets just hope they win this game tonight!!!!!!

My boys!

I had to include this one because Mason wouldn't let go of
Cooper and his face says it all........"help me mom".
He was crying about 2 seconds later!

Day Out With Thomas

We had our yearly "Day Out With Thomas" this morning. Mason was like a kid on Christmas......way more excited this year than last (which is expected seeing as he is a year older). He couldn't wait to ride on Thomas and talked about it all weekend! It was such a beautiful morning, perfect for a train ride! :-)

Playing in the imagination tent....so many things to do

Cooper had a good time too

The McKinney Clan

tried to get a good one but he wouldn't sit still :-)

checking everything out.....and he decided to put on his train hat
because it was too sunny

Back in the imagination tent. We have a house full of trains and this is
what he wants to do when he is at the train museum. haha

Preschool

I am still in denial that Mason started preschool. He was so excited to so to his "new school", as we have been calling it. We had a great visit last week with his teachers and he couldn't wait to go back. He is going Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9-3, so not much different from what he was doing at his other school. We chose to move him to this one because it feeds into his elementary school. Hoping he will make lots of friends and continue to LOVE school!

Pool Fun

Here are a couple of videos from the pool this weekend.

Newport Beach

For Labor Day Weekend we packed up the kids and headed out to Newport Beach. We pretty much spent all of our time in the pool, which was fine by me because it was pretty warm there. Mason had so much fun getting tossed around by Uncle David and some of his friends and Cooper had fun watching!

8 Months Old

Hard to believe my baby is 8 months old. Before I know it I will be writing his 1 year old post! At 8 months he weighs 22 pounds and still has 2 teeth (thinking more are on their way any day now). He is also soooooo close to crawling. He can still get anywhere he needs to go by rolling but we are now up on all fours rocking. It won't be long now! 

Luckily his cold is all gone and he is feeling much better! He is still too cute for words!

Movin' on Up

Cooper is getting too heavy for me to carry him in his infant carseat so we graduated him to the next one! Here is his first ride! :-)
