In the "town square" there was a gentleman playing the guitar as part of the entertainment. Simon headed right up to the microphone and sang twinkle twinkle and Old MacDonald to all the seniors, he was a hit.

Meeting Memere and Pepere
On the weekend Cooper met his Memere and Pepere for the first time. He is one lucky little guys to have 2 sets of great grandparents. We also had the chance to visit Memere in her new home. It was great to see her looking so good, she has gained a little bit of weight and gets up and walks around a little. The next challenge for her is to get a new roommate, the 102 year old cranky old lady is not doing it for my friendly grandma.

Party...another good reason to eat cake.
We celebrated Cooper's one month with Jason's parents on Friday night with some ice cream cake. A one month birthday....a great reason to eat cake!
He looked so cute in his chair that I couldn't resist snapping a whole bunch of photos.

One Month
Cooper is one month old today! He is an eating machine....every hour...24 hours a day. We had his one month doctors appointment and he has gained 1 lbs 9 oz in 2 weeks. He now weighs in at 9 lbs 9 oz and is 23 inches tall, an increase of 1 3/4 inches in the same two week period.
He has an awake time first thing in the morning, sleeps most of the day and has another awake time in the early evening. He likes to be held all the time and is currently hanging off me in the Baby Bjorn. Life is grand for Cooper!
Grandma and Grandpa (Jason's parents) are coming over tomorrow night for dinner and to celebrate Coop's one month birthday.

P.E.I.
I am very happy to say that Jason has been offered the position of the beach volleyball coach for the 2009 Canada Games Team. He has been working very hard on his coaching over the past year and it is paying off. We will all be travelling to Summerside P.E.I for two weeks in August. Jason will spend a week coaching and living in the athletes village, the kids and I are hoping to rent an oceanfront cottage, attend the opening ceremonies, watch some beach volleyball and live the life in P.E.I. I am already researching and have a few friends who travel to P.E.I. every summer that are helping me with our plans. We can not wait and we are very proud of Daddy.
Skiing
We went skiing on Sunday morning at Horseshoe Valley. It was a fantastic day, the kids both did an amazing job.
Riley insisted from the beginning that she could do it by herself. Jason was there to stop her as she can not stop yet. She was so proud of herself.
This was Simon's first time skiing. He did a great job and wanted to go again, again and again.

Valentines Day
We had a great Valentines Day! We had a yummy pancake breakfast, we exchanged Valentines gifts, the kids and I made a heart shaped cake, Simon and Jason headed to the college for volleyball practice, Riley, Cooper and I headed to Horseshoe Valley Resort for a birthday party and we ended the night out for a steak dinner. Cooper was the hit of the restaurant, everyone felt the need to come over and ask about him.

Enjoying the Valentines crafts
The boys ready to go the gym. They insisted on wearing "gym clothes."
Riley at Laurel's party. I was a little nervous about this party as it was a pool party. I am unable to go into a pool as my incision is not healed...what would Riley do????? Well, I put on her life jacket and off she went, swimming all over the pool, climbing out and jumping back in without any help. It was awesome!

LOVE...
Today Riley and Simon have their Valentines Party at school. All three of them got dressed in their Valentines shirts and humoured me with posing for some photos.
Newborn Photos
We have taken Cooper to get his newborn photos done. We did photos of Riley and Simon at 2 weeks and we did the same for Cooper. In these photos he is a spitting image of Simon at 2 weeks.

Nice P.J.'s
Riley changes her clothes at least 10 times a day...this is what she put on to wear to bed this evening.
The Parker Family
We had a wonderful afternoon with Christine, Lilly, Katie and Adam today. They came over to meet Cooper, have lunch with us and play. The kids play so well together that it allows Christine and I to have some adult conversation with minimal interruption.
