We finally finished school last week. It felt like the day wouldn't ever get here! Cooper has grown so much in the past year. We were so blessed that he had the most amazing teacher and he really excelled in 1st grade! He also grew quite a bit physically. He's starting to look like a big kid and not so much like my little baby ... View the Post
First of First
I can't believe my baby is in the first grade! On Monday, a couple people, including my mom, said "I didn't know Cooper was starting school today!".

In my mind, you're still the snuggly little baby that I carried for nearly 10 months, labored 36 hours for and brought home from ... View the Post
Back to School Shopping!
Back to school. It's all that seems to be on my mind lately. With 4 days left to go, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little panicked. I also have felt very unprepared in this whole process. Since I was homeschooled, I don't really know what to tell Cooper to expect or things I need to prepare him for. The one thing I knew I would be good ... View the Post
