Cooper and Kinley's birthday celebration

 Cooper got his own set of scriptures for his birthday. The mail carrier thought it would be a great idea to put them in our mail box instead of the bigger mail slot that is meant for packages. The problem with this is that the actual slot is bigger than the opening. We got smart though and grabbed a butter knife to hold down the top flaps. Finally came out. Gotta love smart people.

Immediately following Cooper's baptism, our family came back to our house for cake and ice cream for Cooper (8) and Kinley's (3) birthdays. We didn't do a friend party for Cooper this year (fail). We had enough to do between Mason's birthday July 15th, Cooper's birthday August 12th, Cooper's baptism August 22nd, and Kinley's birthday August 23rd. 

Flower look-a-like

  Shiloh: "She looks like a flower!"

 

Saying good-bye to diapers!

We went out to celebrate with this little one tonight. Yay for Kinley being potty trained! Mason will be 10 on Wednesday, so after 10 years of diapers we are saying so long to one more phase of parenthood.

Daddy's favorites?

I just took all of the pictures from Jeff's phone from over the past couple months. Jeff had a few groups of pictures form events like Mason's Orchestra concert and helping my sister and brother-in-law build their pond. The rest were just random pictures of Shiloh and Kinley. Not a single random shot of either Mason or Cooper. There were 30 pictures of Kinley and 5 of Shiloh.
