More Funny things
Our Triplets, Bryce, Cooper and Darcy are now 3 years 5 months old. Avery is 14 months old
Cooper:
Cooper is a constant stream of chatter. Once he starts to talk he has no off switch. He talks to everyone and is not shy to ask anyone questions. He confidently walks up to strangers and says, "Wuts yurrr name?" (This is the opposite of Darcy, who also has lots to say, but shields herself with Mommy or Daddy and avoid speaking with strangers). The other day on one of our "adventures", (an "adventure" consists of walking on or around the block), we often bring people's newspapers that are scattered on our neighbors lawns to their front doors. We often bump into neighbors who are on walk with their pets. This night we walked to the baseball field and watch soccer games. On the way back, as we walk on the sidewalk, occupying the entire width, we happened to stop a man who who was walking alone. Cooper without hesitating looked at the man and said, "Man,,,,,, wherz your dog?" The man walked off not exactly sure what Cooper said but we thought it was funny.
Most mornings, when I have breakfast, I give some of my sugary "junk" cereal to the triplets in miniature plastic Astros batting helmets. They eat the cereal and ask me for more as I eat my cereal on one of our bar stools at the counter passing their cups up to me which I fill and pass back down. Avery is usually in her high chair strapped in. On this morning she crawled to me pulled herself up and gave me a couple of taps on my knee until I relented and gave her some flakes of cereal in her hand. I went back to eating and Avery crawled off. A few minutes later I had tapping at my back. When I looked down Avery had picked up an Astos cap and was tapping my back with it. I took the cap, as I do with the triplets filled it with cereal and gave it back to her. She was happy.
