OK, maybe just one more blog post on the football game. I have about ten more videos I could post, but most are of Cooper saying the same thing...a quick, one-word version of "Go Vols, Touchdown Tennessee" and then zooming his face into the camera. He thought this was hysterically funny at one point and wanted to do it over and over. In hindsight, I think it may be possible that Cooper had a touch too much sugar on Saturday. First, he got a SWISS CAKE ROLL from Aunt Angie when he sat still while getting a hair cut (I mean, seriously...what happened to a good old fashioned sucker?), second, we went to a birthday party right before the game where he licked an incredible amount of icing off of a cupcake that was more icing than cake & then he ate a nothing-but-sugar sucker that was his party favor. Add those things to the fact that he had a great day using the potty and got two pieces of candy for each time and you've got yourself one sugared-up kid! He ate an entire box of popcorn at the game so you would have thought that those carbs and salt would have absorbed the sugar. Apparently not! I watched every single one of these short videos again tonight. I can probably say that I could watch them every night and never get bored. It was amazing how happy he was. There are few words to describe his mood that night other than blissful, ecstatic, and on-top-of-the-world! The video clips and pictures you've seen are honestly what he was like the ENTIRE game. It was fun being his mommy and daddy (and Uncle, I can only assume) that day for sure!
Below is a picture of Kendall...I feel like she's been left out of the blog since it's been all about the football game she did NOT attend. This photo is from Saturday at her friend Lydia's birthday party. For those of you that aren't good at math, Lydia and Kendall are a little over a month apart, so I think they will be friends for a long time. This is Lydia and we have almost the same picture, at the same table from Lydia's first birthday last year. I smell a tradition!

Isn't it amazing that our children's excitement gives us such a feeling of fulfillment?
