Seven things at one time!

Cooper and Lillian were discussing who was more talented. Cooper was convinced he was as HE could do 7 things at one time (based on the whole pat your head while rubbing your belly challenge). Knowing this "7 at one time" demonstration would be worth the show I started rolling the video camera.

Aerobics, or breakdancing, or... something

When I came home last night Robin was finishing an aerobic workout in the living room. She wrapped up and walked off into the kitchen to get a drink. The video was still running and Cooper spotted it as he was passing through the living room.

Fortunately, he didn't notice me start taping his exercise routine.

Email from Robin this AM:
Max seems to catalog fun events from the past but usually picks out surprising ones.  Today, he is fixating on "We can go to Cub Scouts and get food... and Daddy can get dinner and Cooper can get dinner and Lillian can get dinner and Granna can get dinner."

I guess food for he and for I is just understood.

The Usual Suspects

After we returned from the mean streets of Rock Hill, looting chocolate from all of our neighbors, I asked the kids if I could get a photo of them in their costumes. Cooper (AKA Zombie Ninja) said one of his wrist guards had fallen off and he wasn't sure his costume would look as good without it.

I suggested he cross his arms in front of his chest so no one would notice the missing part. Due to him crossing his arms and Lillian trying to continue the "theme," what I got was what appears to be a very cute gang of thugs in my kitchen.
