visit with Cooper and Wendy

Last weekend, we got to visit my good friend Wendy and her son Cooper in Arlington. Our boys are less than a month apart so it is always fun when we can get together!
Will has been super-shy lately so it took him a COUPLE OF HOURS to warm-up, but once he did, it was on!! The boys had a great time and it was so good to see Wendy and her family. I am sad I don't get to see them more often!

let's back up a bit: here is a picture of the sweet boys just a few weeks after Will was born - around Christmas '06


here are a couple of pics from when we got together last summer:


check out these two pictures, the first from last summer and the second one from last weekend.... I can't believe how much they have grown!!!

(I just LOVE Cooper's curls!)


finally, a chair shot:


and the big finale on the piano:

goooooo Rangers! (and happy birthday Mike!)

famous last words:
"Honey, let's take Will to the Ranger game as a belated birthday celebration for you!! It will be so much fun!!"

(in retrospect, a Ranger game with a 2-year old LOOKS really cute, but is a completely exhausting, non-relaxing experience!)

this is William, not watching the game:


here is William, again, not watching the game:


and here are my boys:


We went, we ate, we made some pictures! Love the Ballpark! The only thing Will really remembers was the Dot Race and how the dots were running and then they went back to their house - go figure!

And we got to sit with our friends, James and Kelsey, and their sweet baby Jacob!

a little funny for the weekend...

.. not everyone will find this humorous, But I laughed out loud... a lot!!!
