Ella was calling Cooper a baby because he wears a diaper. Cooper replied as defensive sounding as he could.... "I'm not a baby, I'm Cooper!"

Off to shovel the plow trucks gift to us at the end of our driveway. This is the worst part of shoveling in my opinion. The stuff is heavy and messy.

Got Cooper in bed early as he made some bad choices right after left so he lost his tv privilege tonight. I held him a bit while he cried and talked to him softly explaining why he lost his tv show and how he needs to listen to Mommy and Daddy. After reading him his story he tells me that he peed in his diaper. I told him he should have asked to sit on potty. He got up and off we went to the potty....I get his diaper off and it is bone dry...here he was telling me he needed to sit on the potty not that he already peed in his diaper!!!
After all the bad choices he made he went to bed happy as I told him how proud I am of him and gave him his 2 mnms for peeing in the potty! We never give them to him right before bed but he did exceptional with knowing he had to pee, holding it, and then asking to go on the potty!

Ella calls Cooper "Cooper Puppy"...he was going thru a phase where all he wanted to be was a puppy. He would even get down on the floor in public places and pretend to be "Cooper Puppy".
This morning she called him "Cooper Puppy"and he said he's not Cooper Puppy. I said well what is your name, he said Pooper!!!!
That is how he says his name, guess the C sound is hard for him!

Watching the Super Bowl with Ella sitting on my lap I decided to explain some football basics. I told her that there are two teams...one in orange shirts and the other in white. I explained that they are trying to get the football into the blue area (the end zone) for a touchdown. That they have 4 chances to do that.
I then asked her questions and she surprised me that she knew there are two teams playing, told me the colors of their shirts, told me the color of the end zone they are trying to get the football into and told me they get 4 chances to do it! She did call it a goal instead of a touchdown but I was surprised how much she retained!
We decided that she officially knows more about football now then her MoMom does!!! :-)
