Ainsleigh and Cooper are One!!!!!

This is what I looked like just a few hours before having sweet little Ainsleigh and Cooper. I am still not exactly sure how my stomach stretched so much and how I walked away without stretch marks, but it happened. For those that saw me in person, I think I looked even bigger!!!!



We had Ainsleigh and Cooper's first birthday party on Dec. 7th. We are going to try to have it the first weekend in December to distance it a little from Christmas. We had a great time and the kids loved it.




Look at all of those presents. Ainsleigh's section didn't even fit in this picture. They both got new carseats. It is hard to believe they have finally outgrown their infant seats at age 1. Jackson outgrew his at 6 months...he weighed almost 20 lbs then!!!







Cooper and daddy opening presents.





Jackson was our big helper for the day. He helped open presents!










Uncle Michael, Shari, Story and Shelby Deweese. The girls were huge helpers too. They took pictures, wrote down the presensts and helped undress the kids for cake!













The party crowd!











Cooper loved all of his presents. He really enjoyed the ribbons.











Ainsleigh and Cooper playing with their new toys.






Ainsleigh loved all of the ribbons too.













Jackson, Taylor, Cooper, Kristen, Ainsleigh and Gaga.














The cakes! The big sheet cake wasn't what I had asked for,

but that is ok. Everyone ate it anyway!








Getting ready to sing Happy Birthday. Jackson and our friend Addy helped blow the candles out.














Cooper was not so amused with the cake. He kept rubbing it in his eyes. I tried to feed it to him with a spoon and he wasn't all that interested. He is his father's child.








Ainsleigh on the other hand is definitely my child. She LOVED the chocolate icing. She didn't eat much cake, but pretty much cleared the icing from the top of her cake. She was literally up to her elbows in chocolate! She screamed when we took it away from her.










The aftermath...she went straight to the bathtub!
