Wil's 4! and lotsa other stuff

These pictures are sorta out of order...... it goes Easter then Wil's bday, then mothers day but i don't really want to switch them all around, so just stay with me :)

For my mom for mother's day we (me and my sibs) took pictures of ourselves and we each had a different piece of paper saying something, ours (cuz im the oldest) said "WE" my brother todd and his wife's picture said " <3 " thats a heart, my next brother Jake, who is on a mission in Arizona sent one that said "Our" and Rachel's said "Mom" it was really cute.

My gorgeous mom seemed to like them! she has them at work on her desk!

For Nick's mom, nick's one and only sister Heather set up a photo shoot of our families and made a photo book, this picture was the cover picture!!! it still cracks me up :) Nick's mom really loved it though, and we got some much needed shots of our families together, Heather's kids are my kids only cousins as of right now so the cousin's picture i love a lot!

Wil is such a ham in front of the camera, i wanted to post all of the retarded Wil pictures but it would have taken up the whole blog lol

We tried to have them pose back to back, leaning, with their arms crossed and this is what we got LOL! Wil making a weirdo face and cooper smushin his face up against wil lol they tried, they really did, hopefully someday they will be cool :)

This is Easter!!! We colored eggs and sorta took it easy. had brunch with nick's parents, Nick's senior exit jury was that week so we had a lot of other things going on, like trying to keep nick healthy so he could sing in front of a panel of elitist professors who get to decide pass fail if he can graduate.... lol but he did so no worried, passed with flying colors!

Coloring Easter eggs!

Cooper is potty training!! He's pretty much got it, he was going in and taking off his diaper and going potty so we decided it was time lol. and then when the box of diapers i was using was empty we never looked back. He does great right now, i think we are on week 2 maybe of training, he tells me when he has to go and half the time just does it by himself and will come running out of the bathroom to tell me hes done and needs m&m's lol. its nice though to not have to change diapers, i realized that i had been changing diapers everyday for 4 years....... wow

Wil had an awesome birthday, Grandma and Grandpa O came up for the weekend. The day of HIs bday we went to Soccer practice in the morning then went to Rio (the movie. super great movie btw) when we got home we had pizza and salad for dinner, opened presents and had cupcakes :) he loved it, best day of his life

His reactions to his presents were the best, Nick's reactions were equally as awesome :)

My mom got him some color wonder bubbles, they say they are washable, and so we just went out on the porch, after a while of these crazy blue bubbles going everywhere i started to worry a little..... cuz the wood looked really bad, so i pulled the hose out and they DID NOT wash out........ ugh lol, i scrubbed, i hosed i soaped i bleached.... nada so Nick is staining the porch if it ever stops raining, then it wont be so blue anymore.... use it on the cement!!!!!

Wil is doing soccer!! He loves it. It is only once a week which he would rather go every day i think but he is not the most aggressive player, or the most attentive. He reminds me alot of myself as an athlete ....... but he has fun, every time he kicks the ball he looks at us on the sidelines and cheers that he kicked it, as someone else takes it down the field to score, but at least he is excited lol
