I Tried...But It Was Naptime

Ry + Wall = Ouch

So it turns out that one of Ry's new hobbies is running into walls. This sounds good and fun...until you trip on something during the wind-up and land on your face. I guess once you have one ailing child throwing another one into the mix isn't such a big deal!


Post-Op

I was really nervous that after the surgery Cole was going to be totally out of it. It seems like he's back to his old cheery self...he definitely has moments where you can tell he's in some pain, but overall he seems to be managing it pretty well.

All Is Well!

The surgery went well today. We don't want to put all of the details on here, so feel free to call or email if you'd like the full scoop. But the good news is we're looking at a happy smiling baby right now who seems to be doing okay! Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and well wishes.

Deep Thoughts

My converation with Ry on the way home from school today (this is verbatim):

Mom: So Ry, tell me about school. What did you do?
Ry: Ry Ry don't eat crayons!
Mom: Did Miss Kelsey tell you not to eat crayons?
Ry: Yea...Ry Ry don't eat markers too
Mom: So, you were eating markers?
Ry: Ry Ry don't eat pencils!
Mom: Uhhhh, yea

Veteran's Day Parade

Luckily our cousins Colleen & Kirk called to remind us about the Veteran's Day Parade in town this weekend. Their son Roy was walking with the Boys Scouts so we went to check it out. There were tons of fire trucks, ambulances, antique cars, and flags.

On the walk home we asked Ry his favorite part and he said "the lollipop" (people marching were throwing candy to the crowds).


Rainbows

It's so funny what kids pick up on. The other day some light came through a window and created a tiny rainbow on our Dining Room floor. I pointed it out to Ry and we sat down to look at all of the colors. All of a sudden he jumped up and said "more rainbows in the kitchen!" and ran over to our cabinets to point out some more.

He must have seen them before and remembered. I just find it fascinating to watch their little minds work!

Happiness Is Playing With Your Cuz


Ry vs Cole 6 Months

So what do you think?

Ry September 2005


Cole October 2007



Cole Mackin' On The Chicks

Cole recently met two lovely ladies, Amelia and Adelaide. He's clearly inherited his father's smooth moves...they both have a lot to learn.

Wanna bet I can get one of their numbers? Watch me!!

Just play it cool...don't let her see you looking...shoot I think she saw me!



Okay I'm totally busted...guess I'll try moving onto the other one




This is exhausting...just take me!


We're Back!

We're sorry for the lack of posts lately. It has been so crazy around the Kerper household that it's been hard to find time to check in with the blog. Between working, colds, doctor appointments, birthday parties, and Halloween festivities, we've been pooped. But rest assured that this weekend I'll add some new pictures and stories of the boys...stay tuned!

The boys and Valley Forge

We went on a field trip to Valley Forge last week. It was windy and uncomfortable!


Ry enjoyed the experience one way . . .


And Cole enjoyed it another way!!
