Cooper saw the timbits. Cooper wasn't allowed to have the timbits. Cooper had a hissy-fit!

Cooper loves throwing, rolling and catching balls lately. And Layla loves to play it with him.

Today, Layla's preschool class took a bus trip to Sobey's. They got to take a tour of the store, pet lobsters and decorate their own cupcakes in the bakery. He she is enjoying hers after lunch.

Today was also Great-Grampa's 82nd Birthday!!!! We went over to Gramma P's to celebrate. Here Cooper is showing Great-Grampa the big mess he made with his birthday cupcake.

And here Layla is helping Great-Grampa open his gifts.

And serenading us all on Gramma P's piano.

Cooper is getting pretty attached to his blankies lately. He has several of these ones that are all pretty much the same that he sleeps with every night. This morning, he wanted to bring it with him and he wouldn't even give it up at breakfast time.

Went outside for a play today and Layla noticed the daffodils sprouting. YAAAAY Spring!!!! :)

This one is dated wrong. It's actually a photo from yesterday's dinner. Lasagna. What a mess!

And a bonus photo --- cuz I think it's super cute!

Today, when I was finished sorting laundry, I came out to the kitchen and saw this:

(she's pouting because she was in trouble, i'm surprised she actually let me take her picture)

and this:

Ohhhh poor Cooper...

or not. Looks like he actually enjoyed the "pampering".

Yep, Layla got into a bottle of nail polish and decided to treat Cooper and herself to a little mani-pedi.

Oh the fun kids have with an empty box.

Layla's got Bieber Fever. And Auntie Marz got Layla this t-shirt to encourage her obsession. She was so excited to put it on. Below, she's showing off her Bieber shirt to Cooper.

And this one's for Gramma P! Here's a pic of the cardinal we saw in our backyard today.

Layla enjoying the giant lollipop that she waited 2 days for. She saw then in the store on the first day of our trip and she wanted one. I said at the end of our trip. She was thrilled to finally get to enjoy it on the car ride home.

Cooper in the Wolf hat that Layla picked out for him.

Layla on the waterslide.

Unfortunately, there's not many pics of the munchkins in the waterpark. There is barely a dry spot in that place, a very dangerous place for a camera! :)

Breakfast in the hotel room.

Layla hangin with one of her new BFFs. She LOVED this moose. 

Sitting in front of the fireplace with mommy.

 

Another new BFF for Layla. The Bear.

And the 3rd BFF - the tree. We had to pass the moose, bear and tree wherever we went. She HAD to stop every time and visit them. And each morning we were there she would wake up and say "Can we go see the Bear, and the Moose, and the Tree?"

Dinner with the Goetz's.

Devin & Jason with their Ginormous beers. Amanda and I also got some HUGE strawberry shortcakes the night before, but we didn't have a camera with us to take a pic of them.

SKEEEEE-BALLLLLL!!!!

Layla didn't have quite enough power to get the ball all the way up. So this is what she finally resorted to.

Riding the firetruck.

And on the bulldozer.

Playing the popcorn game with Daddy in the arcade.

Coop checking out the hammerhead game.

Fun in the waterpark.

Swimming with Lily in the wave pool.

Layla snaking on her giant sprinkle cookie.

Fun in the hot tub.

Loungin'.

Today we left for a 3 day trip to Great Wolf Lodge. We had a blast! Such a fun place for the kiddos. Here are some of the highlights.

Layla practicing her alphabet in the car. We were pretty impressed with the job she did!

Ready to hit the water park!

Very focused on story time in the lobby.

Waiting for the story to start.

Layla showing off her wristband, excited to start some waterpark fun!
