Lily Grace and I had a night out together. We had a blast at the Fall Festival at our church. It was a great night. One of her favorite parts of the Fall Festival was just playing with toy cars. I almost never got her away from them! 
I had no idea Bumble Bees were so popular. There were so many bumble bees at the Fall Festival! This is Alaina - too cute!
Alexis was Dorothy of course and she had a live Toto!!
When LG found the ducks it was bad. I couldn't get her away from them. Her sleeves were soaking wet past her elbows!!
Getting her hands painted and then were washed off soon after when we had to go back to the ducks, ha!
This dog was even dressed up as a bumble bee!!
She thought these were pretty neat. "Look at my 'ingers', Mama!" Not sure why she leaves the f off.
Her friend Ty as Elvis.
Enjoying a hay ride together.
She got to see one of her best friends Mykah. She has missed her so much since MDO ended. Some days just out of the blue she will say, "I miss Mykah, I wanna play with her." It breaks my heart. This day I told her she was going to get to see Mykah that night and she was so excited! All day she talked about seeing Mykah and a Camel????? Where the camel came from I have NO idea! But she did get to see a rabbit!
On the 27th, we went for Cooper's first baby check-up. Everything went great! He weighed 9 lbs and 11.5 oz. He was 22 inches long. This was great because he had lost down to 8lbs 5oz at the hospital so that meant he had gained 23 ounces in two weeks! On average he should gain about 1 ounce a day, so clearly he is eating good! They did prick his heel - which he did not like at all! Lily Grace was with us at the doctor and she hates the doctor. Sometimes I wonder if it hurts the doctor's feelings because she is so mean to him! Anyway, she kept telling him, "Check Cooper, don't check me." Hopefully Cooper will like the doctor a little more than she does so doctor visits won't be so difficult! We are so thankful to have two healthy children and we are so happy Cooper is growing and doing great!
Later that evening we got a visit from some special people! My friend Tiffany that I graduated with from High School brought her husband and little girl all the way down to Brent for a visit. Lily Grace and Macy had so much fun playing together. Sharing was a little issue at times but what two year old shares good? Macy is only 5 months older than LG and they are so cute together. Hopefully we can get together more often. It was so sweet of them to visit!
Cooper has been holding his head up since the first day of his life! One thing definitely different from LG is that Cooper LOVES tummy time!
Lily Grace "pretending" to be Cooper. (She does this a lot)
She just can't get enough of her little brother.
Mommy and Lily Grace having a picnic. She loves play picnics and tea parties. So much fun!
October 20th was Cooper's first trip to Berry. We went to visit Uncle Skyler for his 17th Birthday. Pop grilled out some yummy steaks and we enjoyed our evening very much! It was great to get up there even if the visit was very quick. Can't wait to get back soon!
Lily Grace enjoyed her ice cream cone very much!

Love you Bro!!
Tucker and LG were so excited to see each other. They had missed each other so much. They wouldn't leave each others side. They are so cute together. It's gonna be lots of fun watching the two of them and Cooper grow up together!
Mommy loves her little man!
Uncle Skyler is so proud :)
Here are some random pictures from a few different days.

My friend Kim came to spend two days with us a few weeks ago. It was nice having her there so that I could spend some time with Lily Grace while Kim held Cooper. Lily Grace really enjoyed getting to spend some alone time with Mommy and play outside.
Cooper loves to just sit in the bath tub but as soon as you start bathing him he still gets very upset! He just doesn't like being messed with! HA! And he still hates getting his diaper changed too.
How sweet :)
