Happy Father's Day!





Happy Fathers Day Daddy! We Love you!!!

We spent Fathers Day by getting up and going to church. They did a skit that literally had me balling! It was to Steven Curtis Chapmans song "Cinderella" and they had a little girl come out and dance with her Dad, and then a girl in a prom dress came out and danced with him, and then a girl in a wedding gown. Real Tear Jerker! Afterwards, we went to lunch at Ruby Tuesdays. It is not one of my favorite things to do... going out to eat with 3 kids, but we survived. After we came home, I ran grocery shopping with Hayley while Jeff, Alyssa and Cole napped. On my way home from shopping I got the call that my friend Corrie was in labor. Needless to say, our day was cut short and I was off to the hospital. We will continue tonight by eating steaks on the grill! Love you Babe! You are an Awesome Daddy!!!

FIVE Months


My little man, is not so little anymore! He is getting so big, I can't stand it.
Well, it is official, he is rolling. He actually rolled (that I saw) not long after I posted his 4 month picture.

He is also eating cereal and LOVING it! I had started to feed it to him right after he turned 4 months, but after a couple days, I realized we were leaving for vacation and it was just one more thing I didn't want to have to worry about so I stopped giving it to him. He was fine without it, but not that he has it - I think he would not be a happy camper if I didn't give it to him. You can actually see his excitement when he sees it.

He is almost sitting on his own. He can hold it for a few seconds, but that is all before he does a face plant. He can also hold himself up really well when he is on his belly. I think he will be crawling pretty soon, we'll see.

He goes to the Dr on Saturday, but it is just for shots.

Everyone else is doing well here. Jeff slept with the girls this past Saturday night in the back yard in the tent. They loved it! We are hoping to go camping in a couple weekends, so it was in preparation for that.

Reunion

While we were home in NJ we had the first "Cossaboon Reunion" It was a great time seeing all my aunts and uncles and mostly all my cousins and their families. Some had not even met Jeff before, let alone the kids. One cousin was unable to make it and a few 2nd cousins popped in and out so this picture is not fully complete of everyone that was there.. but it is what we got!It really took me back to when I was younger and we would all be together at picnics in the summer. Hope there will be more!!! (hint hint)

Travel East

We were able to travel back home to PA and NJ at the end of May. We went to PA and visited with Tim and Amy and their family for a couple of days. The girls just love their cousins and all the fun that they have when they are together. Jeff and I hardly see them all day!

We then traveled on to NJ and spent a couple days there. We celebrated my moms birthday, went to one of Robbie's baseball games, Ocean City beach and boardwalk, South Street Philly for cheesesteaks, and my brother cooked crabs.. it was awesome!!

We also took a detour to VA on our way home and bought a new Honda Pilot! Woo Hoo! All the kids were so good in the car for the long rides too.

It is always such a good time visiting family. The kids (can no longer just say "girls") and I will probably travel back later in the summer for a week to visit.
