Yesterday we went to De Leon, TX to see Great Granny Melba and our cousin's Karen, Elizabeth, Austin, Gracie and our Aunt Sherri and Uncle Jerry. The kids did really good and Cooper had a blast playing with everyone. We are so glad that everyone finally got to meet Caylee Anne!!

Let me tell you a story about our trip, Well everyone knows that it has been raining here and all. Well on the drive to De Leon went pretty well. It didn't rain on us the way there, but on the way back was a completely different story. It was a down poor the whole way back. We hydroplaned several times which scared me and my mom to death and then when we would pass 18 wheelers going the other way, they would spray water all over us and we couldn't see a dang thing. Which was really scary. The kids slept right through the whole ordeal. I was grateful to get everyone home safely.

Here are some pictures from the day at Granny Melba's !!

Hello!! Here is an update on the kids.

Cooper is now 15 months. Growing like a weed and as always into everything. He learns something new everyday, it is amazing to watch him. Here are some words he is saying now. Mama, Daddy, dog, door, bye bye, ball, oh no, uh oh, thank you, milk. He knows where his eyes,nose,ears,mouth,belly button are and he will point to yours also. He gives the best hugs and kisses. He loves to be outside and loves to throw his baseball and basketball, soccer ball all over the house ( don't worry they are all soft so they can't hurt anything or anyone). He is just all boy and we are loving every minute of watching him grow.

Caylee is 5 1/2 weeks. She is growing she weights 9 lbs 4 oz. She is stretching out and moving around a lot more, still very alert and looks and studies everything that looks at. She will smile at you know when you talk to her. Which is such a great feeling. her little way of showing that she loves you. We have really enjoyed our little girl and we cant wait for her to really start showing her personality more.

Hey everyone ! Here are some current pictures of the kids. We hope that you enjoy them! For those that have not met Caylee Anne yet we hope that you get to soon !! Everyone is doing good ! Caylee is growing and Cooper is just getting into everything as usual.

Hey everyone ! I am just updating yall on Caylee and Cooper !!

Cooper is 14 months and just amazing ! He is running everywhere and getting very independent and into everything. He is talking up a storm, here are a few words he says.. Mama, daddy, milk, dog, baby, thank you, bye bye ( he waves also), door, ball, up. You can ask him where is eyes, nose, mouth, ears and belly button and he will point to them. He is just getting so big, my baby is not a baby anymore he is a toddler now ! It is so fun watching him learn new things and learning new words. He is ALL BOY !!

Caylee will be a month old on the 28, which I can't believe. At her 2 week check up she weighted 8 lbs 2 oz and was 20 1/2 inches long. She is growing ! She is eating and sleeping very well still. She loves to be very very warm and still loves her bouncer and swing. She smiles now when you talk to her. She is very alert and looks around at everything, just like her big brother did. She is starting to move around more and just stretch out. I am loving being able to dress her in cute outfits and putting bows in her hair ! She has been so fun !!

I PROMISE I will get pictures loaded soon !!

Hey everyone ! Sorry it has been a while since I blogged last. So let me catch you up on our busy busy life !



Cooper has turned one and just all boy! We had his birthday party with great friends and family. Also in Dec. he had tubes put in both ears, and has done very very well with them. He is talking up a storm and just into everything. But we wouldn't have it any other way. He is such a joy to have and we love watching him grow and learn new things daily. Here are his stats... he is 14 months, 23 lbs 36 in tall, eating all kinds of food.. favorite is fruit, he has 14 teeth. He loves to be outside and loves throwing balls around my house. He loves his soft baseball and basketball, hopefully he will be a great baseball player like his daddy!! He is just growing up right before our eyes. He is just a happy and full of life little boy ! Oh by the way Cooper is a big brother now ! He loves his baby sister !!



Well our newest addition Caylee Anne Kent was born on 1-28-09! She weighted 7 lbs 10 oz and was 19 3/4 in. We are so excited that she is finally here! She has a ton of brown hair and looks like her mommy ! She is a good sleeper and eater. She loves her bouncer and her swing. She is just a wonderful baby and it is wonderful to see Cooper react to her. He kisses and hugs her, says baby and points to her. When she cries he tries to give her, her passy and loves on her to try and calm her down. She is such a delight to have and we are getting used to PINK everywhere !!



Now to Adam and I.. We are adjusting to life with 2 kids and all the joys and challenges that brings. Even with all the late night feedings and all have been fine. We are just loving being parents. Adam is staying very busy with his job and loving it. I am enjoying being at home with Cooper and Caylee. Wishing that it could last longer that 7 weeks. Hint hint honey ! Well I will hopefully get some pics on here soon and I promise that I will get better at blogging. Hope all is well with everyone and we can't wait for everyone to meet our little Caylee

Well I am very sad to report that Cooper has a double ear infection and now we are being sent to an ENT ( ear nose and throat ) Dr with in the next few weeks to see if he will need to have tubes in both ears or what our other options might be. He is cutting more teeth and with that comes the ear infections. That has been a normal occurrence since he started getting teeth. I am not a very happy mama right now. But who wants to see their little baby put under and have this or any procedure done. I know it is all in Gods hands and that he will be OK. Just keep little Cooper in your prayers !

Tonight we were eating dinner ( chicken and dumplings) and I was feeding Cooper and he was talking and eating and then I looked over and he was a sleep in his highchair. This is something that he has never ever done before. I mean he loves dinner time. He has done this several times at school, fallen asleep when they were feeding him lunch, but he has never done this at home. I had to take a picture to show you that no matter how good dinner is, sleeping is more important at times.
