It's official!

I have wii-itis!
Oh, my poor head, my arm...even my legs!
What did I do? It's seriously all because of tennis!
My poor body:)
We swapped xbox 360 for wii with Amy
and Eldon for a couple of weeks and this past
weekend Gene and I played some serious wii.
I love the Mario Party...
I have a love/hate relationship with wii sports,
especially tennis but I did get some
serious cardio this weekend.
I can't move my arm though.
I sucked it up on Saturday and it was on
like Donkey Kong but oh,
am I ever paying for it now!
You know, it's not just that I don't play tennis
and probably have never used those muscles
before but because of those things,
I swung the wii remote about 10x more
than necessary just in case:)
I was better than I though but I definitely
over compensated.
I want to play more but I have so much to do
and I can't be out of commission this week...
tons to do and I just can't let a game take
over like that. I won't do it!!!
Hehe...seriously, so addicting.
Caleb went down for a nap today and I
was soooo tired. I wanted to take a nap but
instead played 2 games of Mario Party.
I seriously fell asleep in between turns.
I even fell asleep during a few mini games.
I have no idea how I won the football thing
in my sleep but ROCK ON!!!
The wii will be going home this weekend with the
F's and it will be sadly missed but maybe
my arm can heal a bit and I can do more around here.

PS-Celebrated my 5th Anniversary
on Saturday...woohoo, 5 down:)
Dinner and a little walking around...
a very nice evening.
Thanks honey...I LOVE YOU!!!

memories

I have been going through tons of pictures trying to get them
sent to Winkflash so I will get them back in time for the
Scrapfest next Saturday.
I will be scrapping from 10am-10pm and I
want to be prepared.
I love looking at pictures, I huge reason why I scrapbook.
I can't believe how much my boy has grown.
This picture was taken December 2006...only 8 months old.
I miss my baby but I do enjoy him so much at two.
I love how every time I get him out of bed and
he looks up at me and says, "Hi Angel".
He drives me crazy and melts my heart
every single day:)
Anyway, just loving my boy and wanted
to let everyone know!

a few of my favorite things...right now

These are a few things
around my house that
I am totally loving right now...

1. Our new bathroom decor..."Surfing" theme.
I love the grass skirt shower curtain and all the accessories.


2. These Martha Stewart pom pom's on my ceiling.
I think they are stinking cute!


3. The XOXO that Sondra made me for my birthday.
It's for Valentine's Day but I still haven't taken it down:)

4. DVR...the XOXO is on top of my DVR...
It is so nice to be able to record all my faves
and pause and rewind live tv...
although I know that I watch so much more.

Caleb's Birthday

We just celebrated
Caleb's 2nd Birthday
this past Saturday.
I can't believe my boy is already two years old!!!
I want to start by saying a few things about my boy...
He is the sweetest thing. He is so affectionate
and always wanting to "hold you" or "snuggle".
I love his hugs and kisses and I especially
love when I hold him and he pats my back as I am patting his.
He is so polite...always saying please and thank you.
He even reminds us to say you're welcome:)
Caleb is so funny and that's probably why he gets
away with as much as he does. I mean, how
do you scold your son when you are laughing so hard?
He is so smart. Honestly, I am surprised everyday by
his knowledge and the things he remembers.
Caleb is my hero.
I still can't believe how much he has gone
through these past couple of years.
He has adjusted so well and he is what helped me
get through the tough times. I love my son for so
many different reasons. I am so proud to be his mommy
and can't wait to continue to watch him grow and be
part of his life. What a huge responsibility to be a parent
to someone so special. He teaches me so much and I hope
and pray that I will be the best mom I can be to him.
I love you Caleb Nicholas Cope!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Caleb had such a great time at his Birthday!

Thank you so much Amy and Eldon for coming

down and helping with the festivities.

You helped make the party a success:)

After Caleb's Birthday Party, Amy, Eldon, Gene, Caleb

and I went to Joe's Crabshack for dinner.
Here is a video of Caleb busting a move.
