A lot has happened in the last couple of weeks. How do I manage to get so far behind?! Here's what we've been up to:
It's a BOY!
It's a BOY!
Glad I didn't keep all of Cooper's old clothes for no reason :-)
Cooper has been insisting all along that it's a boy and he says his name is Wilson. We are pretty set on Carter for a first name, and now we are probably going to go with Wilson as a middle name.
We are so excited! February can't get here soon enough.
My sister came into town for the weekend to help us get the baby room ready. I know, I'm a little crazy because I'm 22 weeks and the baby room is pretty much completely ready now, but these next 18 weeks are full of holidays and birthdays and I'm so glad it's ready before all that madness begins.

We moved Rocky's bed out of the babies room and his new chosen spot to sleep is in Cooper's room. They are so cute together. Whenever Cooper goes in to go to sleep, Rocky follows him.
While my sister's family was in town, we all made a trip to the pumpkin patch. It was a rainy day and the kids looked so cute in their rain jackets.
A couple weeks ago Cooper came down with an awful stomach flu. I was such a proud Mommy because he is at an age where he knows to throw up in a bowl. Even in the car he reached for it when he needed it and didn't miss. For anyone who has had their kids barf in the carseat, you know how awesome it is when your kid throws up in a bowl in the car. What a relief! We kept a bowl within arms reach all day long and he never missed. That sure made my life easier because the last time he had the stomach flu my entire house stank like barf and I'm pretty sure we went through all our towels and sheets and ended up shampooing the carpets multiple times. It was just a 24 hour bug and he was feeling back to normal the next day.
Then it was my turn to get sick. After spending a little bit of time with Becca Boo, we all found out she had strep throat. Poor girl. Then I woke up the next day with a sore throat. Dang it! It was just perfect timing as we were all set to go to Vegas in a couple days, so I went straight to the doctor and got antibiotics. Thankfully I was feeling much better in time for our trip.
David turned 30 last weekend (he's an old man!) so we went to Vegas to celebrate with some friends and family. We had such a great time, but we really missed our little man. We ended up getting to see a Cirque Du Soleil show, which was awesome! And we came home with an iPad that we can't stop playing with.

She was babysitting Cooper yesterday and took him out for some pictures. They are just too cute!
