State Fair Part 2

Cohen also went on one of those huge slides- talk about giving a mother a heart attack! Actually Steve wanted to take him on the farris wheel so I settled for this! He had a great time!

Crazy dragon roller coaster- Cohen at first had a panicked look on his face, but he was so proud of himself for going!

Carson playing the ducky game- so cute! We also saw seals and animals! Then afterwards we went with our friends to Chick-fil-A for dinner! It was the perfect family night!

The State Fair

On Friday we took the boys to the State Fair with some great friends of ours! We did all kinds of fun things! Cohen got to ride on another horse- and he did it all by himself as he told us! They both rode a helicopter ride and Carson cried when he got off because he loved it so much! Then they played a ducky game and both won a prize! It was hot but we had lots of fun.......see next post.....

Gardner Village

We had a super fun week last week! On Thursday we went to Gardner Village and rode horses! Carson rode a horse too but I didn't get a picture because I was holding him on the horse- and the angle wasn't working in my favor. Then we fed the ducks and then Grandma Bowers spoiled us rotten with fudge, new sippy cups, cookies and books- We all had a sugar high afterwards! Thanks for the fun day Grandma!

Here is Cohen reading a new Halloween book while I looked around the cute store! Also they had all their witches out- and Cohen loved the witch that smashed into the mill!

Carson "feeding" the ducks/himself!

This was Cohen's first time riding a horse and he loved it- it's name was Queen! He's a natural!

Building A Word

Okay so beside the homeless hair style he is portraying in this picture I thought I would post these pictures of Cohen. He watches this show on PBS called Word World- and one day while he was watching it he went and got all his alphabet magnets and lines them all up in a row! Well I watched him do this and then I asked him what he was do an he says "I'm building a word"! Are you kidding me- smarty pants! So he didn't actually spell any words but I thought it was cool that he was getting the concept. Now if he was spelling real words I would start filling out applications to Harvard, but until he gets into the genius category I will just let him be a smart little kid! Doesn't every parent think their kid is smart? Sometimes this kid is too smart for his own good! Anyway I am rambling- just thought I'd share!

Carson Got A Haircut

Isn't this boy so handsome! I love his new haircut. They always make me a little sad because it makes him look so grown up and I miss the baby hair, but he looks so cute!

He is such a smiley baby! I love this happy boy! Steve took him to a place called Cookie Cutters where they only cut kids hair. So Carson got to drive a fire truck while getting his hair cut and they watch a movie and get a balloon afterwards. Carson just laughed and played the whole time. It is definitely worth paying more for a good and fun experience!

I had to take a picture of Cohen too- he is playing in our bath tub with his trains- they love that. But they now have a similar haircut and they both look so handsome!

matchy matchy

The boys got matching pajamas- I don't usually match them but they looked so cute I had to take a picture! I think Cohen is telling me he is two- not the peace sign which I thought at first! Rascally kids- oh how I love them!

Father and Sons Camp Out 2010

This last weekend it was Father and Sons camp out. Carson is still too little and I was even nervous for Cohen to go. But he was so excited and counted down the days.

He loved the one on one time. The weather was as bad as it could be. Pouring rain and thunder and lightening- needless to say I was worried all night about my boys, but couldn't call because of the cell phone reception- well there was none. But Cohen wasn't scared and actually slept through the night- Steve.... not so much sleep!

Before they went they stopped off and ate at "Old McDonald's" as Cohen calls it and he ate every drop of food- and if you know him you know that is very rare. Then they got up there and put up the tent when there was a break in the rain. They just hung out and played and read books- Cohen loved it. Then the next morning the weather was beautiful. They finally got to roast those marshmallows and Cohen ate 2 huge pancakes- camping must give this kid an appetite!

I got to hang out with this fun little guy- he is so stinking cute! On Saturday morning I ran a 5K and my parents went also so my mom did the mile walk with Carson in the stroller. Can I just say that having one baby is so much easier than two.... but I missed my Cohen!

Although the weather was bad the trip was a huge success! Just look at these happy faces!
