Ella brought her Bible with her to Sunday School today. We are in the car and Cooper announces....
"I want my Jesus book."
ADORABLE.

Cooper somehow, in some way started to aquire a liking for Spiderman. He has even asked us for a Spidie House with figures for his birthday.
I asked around thinking maybe one of the tv networks would have a kid show with Spiderman on it. Doesn't appear that is the case.
This past week I was at Target and came across a Blu-Ray of "The Complete Series The Spectacular Spiderman".....
We started watching the series yesterday and I do believe Ella likes it more than Cooper.
Our children don't watch much tv, don't get me wrong, but Ella requested to watch Spiderman before bed both last night and tonight and told me she wants a Spiderman outfit (go figure)....

Today is May 2nd, as of yesterday we have been in this house for a year. It's hard to believe a year has gone by so quickly and all the things we've done in that year.
Ella turned 3. Cooper turned 2. Ella broke her leg and was in a cast for a month. Both children went to preschool in the fall and are now less than a month from the end of their school year! Josh and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary, apart, as I was in Myrtle Beach with my parents and the kiddos. We had our first Halloween with zero treaters. We hosted our first Thanksgiving Dinner. We celebrated Christmas and Santa had a chimney to come down!!!! A New Year came and went pretty much just like at our old house, on the sofa, a few cocktails and the kiddies snuggled in their beds upstairs. I turned 36. Josh and I escaped to Jamaica for a belated 5 Year Anniversary Getaway. Josh turned 39. And the Easter Bunny found us.
We've made a few changes to the house, but the big change will happen this fall to our backyard!
While we have had some over to see the place neither Josh or myself are big entertainers, but maybe this coming year we will manage to have more gatherings at our house.
We are happy and that is what is most important. The dwelling is 4 walls just like our previous house and while I am much happier here, the love that is within the 4 walls is unmeasurable.
Happy 1 Year to The Cooks!

I saw a post on fb a long time ago of a parent who tied their children together when they refused to get along. I am seriously at that point.
Knowing my children they would work together to get themselves free and then continue on with the bickering etc.

When I picked Ella up today from school her teachers told us that they made a super special project that is a secret.
Ella told me twice that it's a secret and she can only tell Daddy.
She just woke up from nap, early, and the first thing she started to do was tell me about the project. We have been doing the steps to the project for 15 minutes now using items around the house and pretending to do what they did.
I won't share the steps etc. as some of you friends have kiddies in her class. But now I am even more intrigued to see what this special project is all about!
