Surprise, surprise.....the Cooper Empire is expanding by one. 

Once we got over the shock, we are quickly getting excited about the prospect that we are going to have a new baby at our house.  We went to the doctor in February and saw the little alien's heartbeat.  I was not quite as far along as I initially thought.  I am due October 2.  I go back to the doctor next week and hopefully we will get to hear the heartbeat chugging along.

Dr. Thomas and his office just ordered a fancy, schmancy new machine.  They will take a peek at the little one's heart sometime past my 12 week mark. 

I already have a little belly popped out - but just look fatter than I already did.

Bennett and Gracie are so excited!!!  B wants a brother.  He wants to name him Thor or Steve (Steve being Captain America's real name)  G wants a sister named Foofa (from Yo Gabba Gabba) or Cinderella. 

Here is how we told people....

And the little alien.....

My boy

My boy is growing up....sigh.  He had his Valentine Cotillion at school a couple of weeks ago.  Just look at how handsome he is.....

Super Heroes Gone Wrong

Picture this......

B comes home complaining of kids at school.  Grandpa asks him why he doesn't use his super-hero moves on these kids.  B jumped out of the chair and proceeds to make super-hero sounds and show off his super incredible super-hero moves....which include kicking.  At which point he kicked the wall.....  and then he yells and goes to grab his foot......and bangs his head on the table.....

It's tough being a super hero!!
