I can’t believe that I am even saying this already, but my little dude Cooper is 3!  How is it even possible that this has come this quickly? Although it seems like both Cooper and Crosby have been here forever, we just all fit together so perfectly, the last 3 years have flown by.  I can barely remember my life before having Cooper.  It is like it never really meant all that much….and in all honesty, it really didn’t.  I was a daughter, a friend, a coworker, but nothing on the planet compares to being a mom.

This year Cooper chose a super hero party…big shocker!  There is almost not a day that goes by where Cooper isn’t wearing some sort of costume (Superman, Spiderman, Green Lantern, Batman, Thor, and even his “Zap, Bang, Pow” t-shirt with red cape.)  We had a bunch of his friends (and ours) out to the Maple Maze with their kiddos to play on the climbing area and then had some pizza and cupcakes in the super hero decorated room.  It was so fun!  We had such a great group!  Family included: Gamma and Papa, Sheesha and Nana, Kelly, Brandon, Gabby and Tristan, Shaneon, Steve, Frederic and Franklin.  Friends included: The Gerbers, The Harrington’s, The Dayland’s, The Jakubov’s, AJ, and The Johnson’s.

The kids had such a blast and the parents had a few minutes (though brief) to catch up as well.  It is amazing how infrequent a good ol’ conversation between adults is when the kids are around.  Not complaining, just sayin’:-)  All the more reason to take time for date nights and time with friends and family.
