Thanksgiving in St. Thomas!

We had a great Thanksgiving weekend in St. Thomas, minus a scary episode for Cooper in the middle.  But aside from that, Cooper had a great time in St. Thomas with his nana and cousins.

Look at the cool lion costume nana got Cooper for Halloween.

After this, the fun hit a dead stop.  Cooper had a seizer and it was one of the scariest moments of my life!   But after the event was over and after his nap, Cooper was back to his regular self and kept having fun the rest of the day.

Sadie was a great big cousin during the whole thing.  Afterwards Sadie had a little nap too.  I think it wiped all of us out.

Nana set the table for a beautiful Thanksgiving dinner.

Fall Fun

Cooper finally decides he wants to ride his bike and use the pedals.  He still can’t ride it and pedal by himself yet, but now he sits on and pedals as I push.  And he loves it!

And so was the cake.   Check out Cooper – he’s quite the ladies man!

The baking continues, as mommy and Cooper make muffins together.

And the potty training is on a roll!  Cooper is wearing big boy underware most of the day now.  He wears diapers for naps and night-time and pull-up’s if we are going out for a long drive or event that we might not have access to quick toilets.  He is doing GREAT!   He gets 1 raisin for pee.  And 2 chocolate chips for poo.   And it works like a charm!

Hiding out in his tent – a new favorite game with all the blankets and chairs in the house.
