A Family Valentines Day

We began our "Family Valentines" by going to the San Jose Children's Museum. We have been wanting to go there for quite some time and thought this would be the perfect day. It was pretty crowded - and all of the kids were wearing red, so it was quite tough keeping a close eye on Cooper...though, it did not bother him at all - he was EVERYWHERE and would move so quick! It was awesome to see him having so much fun with all the different activities to do there. His favorite spots were of course with the balls - getting to throw them and watch them spin down the funnel, painting and the water area. We will definitely be going back to play some more.

Our little China Man

Raking the leaves...Cooper loves raking, sweeping and shoveling - so this was perfect! Except when he thought it was okay to use the rake to hit the other kids around him...such a fiesty little boy sometimes!

The ball funnel - this is where Cooper spent TONS of time.

More fun with balls

Cooper is the new Picaso

Wouldn't this be fun to have at home...

Ready to play...hoping this will keep him dry! (no luck there)

Loving the water

Getting all wet

Here is a cute video of Cooper playing with the balls and the water. He's showing off his left overhand throw...could he end up being a left-handed pitcher??? hmmm...


All changed in dry clothes and walking to the car.

He's so freakin cute sometimes (well all the time) hehe! I can't believe how big he is getting.

After the museum we went out to sushi for lunch. Then it was nap time for Coop and Chad and I watched a couple of our TiVo'd shows...then it was time to go to the Santa Clara Convention Center to see some old dance friends. My old dance studio (where I danced for thirteen years) had a competition here so we were able to watch their performances and see some friends. Cooper LOVED it because he had tons of attention from a group of girls. He could not stop smiling and laughing...such a little flirt already.

A nice, relaxing and family filled Valentines Day! Nothing better than that!
