Milestones

How else would Sara-Cooper loose her first tooth?

By eating chocolate of course!

She set the table, decorated, and planned the menu!

Good Morning Valentine

He reads to me.

Oliver will NOT let me read to him, but he loves *reading* to me.

Winter Fun

(Creighton's coat + Sara-Cooper's gloves+ Cousin's boots) ;)

I love being *stranded* with the children.

Groundhog Day

Soup's On

One of my new years resolutions is to try a new recipe every week. This week I made Elie Krierger's Tuscan vegetable soup. It is full of veggies and is simple and quick to make. I served it with grilled cheese wedges for the children. It was really good. Cooper said he could eat it once a week, but the children were not huge fans. I told Creighton he would not get dessert if he did not eat it. After he ate his grilled cheese and a few bites of soup, he said," Mom, I think I will skip dessert tonight." . =)
