Steamboat Springs

Wes had a couple of days off for New Years so we took advantage of that and took a little mini trip! One of our timeshares is in Steamboat so we thought we would take Kooper skiing and sledding and just have a nice weekend. We had such a good time, Kooper loved all the snow, a lot of times it was above his head and -5 degrees but he could care less. The skiing part was a little frustrating Im not sure how those ski school instructors do it? I do have to give him credit he did pretty good for his first time, I guess Im just a little mad because I had the whole day pictured like this....Wes and Koop go skiing while mom sits in the lodge next to a cozy little fire place sipping on hot coco, reading a book and maybe even getting a nice little massage for this pregnant body of mine, but nooooo instead mom had to hike 10 miles to the bunny hill, carrying all Koopers crap in -10 degree weather and stand at the bottom freezing my you know what off,( okay maybe Im exaggerating just a little) because we knew he wouldn't last more than a few runs and who else was going to take picts? I mean he just turned 3 shouldn't he be doing jumps and moguls by now??
Right before the big ski day!
Just waiting for the shuttle....he is ready to hit the slopes!
Koop was having a hard time walking in his boots and was going soooo slow so his cute little Daddy came to the rescue and carried him...it was a long walk, I wanted someone to carry me:)
He loved the magic carpet!
Kooper's first run!
After a few runs he would go by himself for a few seconds, he was so proud!
Right here he is clapping, he is so proud of himself! So precious! It made it all worth it, gran it I would have loved a massage but to see this little guy be so proud...priceless!
Love my boys! I cant imagine my life without them, I look forward to what this New Year brings! Im so excited to add another boy into the mix and most of all Im excited to make many more memories of our lives together! Love you two!! Happy New Year!!

Chirstmas 2010

We had such a good Christmas, I was a little worried considering it was the first time in 30 years not being around my family but we were lucky enough to have Weston's parents come out for a few days. We had such a good time, the day after they got here we went to Denver and stayed downtown. We actually had never been up that way so it was fun to see something new. On Christmas Eve morning we went to the Denver Aquarium and we got to have breakfast with Santa, it was so cute and Kooper was so excited. We then had a full day of shopping and loved just being together.
The best part for me was setting out all of Kooper things, for reason I think its so fun... this year was just so different because he really knew what was going on. On Christmas morning we woke Kooper up at 5:30am because Weston was on call and just in case he got called in we wanted to make sure we got to do our Christmas with him. Anyway Koop was so fun, a little overwhelmed I think but he was so excited for his new toys. I think between the Grandparents and Aunts and Uncles that spoil him he just got way too much and just wanted to play, he got sick of un-wrapping about half way through.
Then to top it all off, sure enough Weston got called in right at 7 and was at the hospital until the next morning at 7. Im so thankful that his parents were here, I think I would have been having a pity party all day if it weren't for them, they were great all day. They are so much help with Kooper and of course Kooper adores them. We had a great Christmas dinner (thanks to the in laws, allthough I did make homemade rolls) and had a blast playing with Kooper and all his new toys!
All in all we had such a great Christmas, I really wish I could have seen the rest of my family, it wasn't the same with out them, and we missed them like crazy, but I loved starting our own traditions!
I love this one, Kooper is so excited to show Santa the list of things that he wants!
Weston and his cute little Dad!
Our land lord gave Kooper that Elmo stuffed animal for Christmas, and for some reason Elmo had to go everywhere with Kooper in the Jeep. To be honest I'm not sure he has even seen Elmo?
As soon as it got light enough outside we had to get out there to try out they new "barbie jeep" and yes he still calls it that...its so funny, maybe I need to show him what a barbie is??
We live at the end of a street and its a dead end, I love that because there is no traffic and Kooper just rides all around! And yes, my belly is growing at a rapid rate:)
