Happy Valentine's Day!

Hello to you and howdy do?! It's me again; better late than never I always say! I hope you enjoy the pics. As you can see, brother and I are both very popular here in UB. We have already had 2 groups of visitors thus far in this fine month and we aren't finished yet! As you can also see, aunt Amber was quite taken with my brother. You should have seen the two of them; I thought we'd have to pry them apart with a crowbar. Of course, I had the most fun with cousin Kent; I love playing with him. Mom tried to get him to stay but he had to head back for school and basketball. Can you believe he missed his very first game of the season to see me?! We're so glad he decided to get his dog, Molly, and include us in his trip. We hope the whole Costello gang can come back real soon. In fact, we are expecting one member of their clan this very weekend. Cousin Kamrie will be accompanying Gram and Gramps B for the trip down south, and we can't wait to see them. We are going to kidnap Gramma for a whole week too and you know we are all so excited. Especially mom, she practically does backflips when an extra set of hands are involved! You'll see my other visitors above, Papaw Bill and Papaw Charlie. They came for a surprise overnight visit and trailer purchase. You know brother and I broke them in well and mom put them both straight to work! Papaw Charlie held Jagger while Papaw Bill entertained yours truly. Mom was really high on the hog because they also took us out to dinner at the Buttersburg! What fun for a Monday night! Speaking of outings, you all should be so proud of mom. She has been taking both of us boys out on the town as much as possible. Kudos to her for getting out of the house...you would think she was the only woman to ever have two children! Most of the time we are also clean and fed! At least Jagger and I are. Dad has been doing great too. He starts up his second Crossfit contract next week and he will be teaching these classes by himself. They also added a second hour to his Virginia gig so you know he and all of us are tickled pink. More news if you didn't already notice, brother is growing like a weed! He is smiling often and losing the "baby" look as dad calls it; he is starting to look like his own little person and his big brother of course! He is such a good boy, not that you would expect any less from a brother of mine. Saturday we all went on a huge outing to the air and space museum in Virginia. We made a full Valentine's day of it with dinner at the Cheesecake factory included. I got my very own piece of cheesecake, wild blueberry white chocolate truffle. And yes, it tasted as good as it sounds. I am into everything including cheesecake lately; I think my newest line sums it all up perfectly..."mine did it all by myself". Mom and dad are so proud of me and I make them laugh all of the time with my antics. Recently I got a toilet seat stuck on my head and while you may feel sorry for me, the two of them thought that was a real hoot! Speaking of toilet seats, I have been peeing in the potty like a big boy. I am earning stickers like mad and mom practically takes an ad out in the paper every time I go. Honestly folks, I could go on and on about what I am up to, how smart I am, and how much my brother is growing, but I have a better idea. You should just come on up and see for yourselves! I do also want to take a minute to thank you for your patience...I have sure had a hard time finding a spare minute to post on this blog for you. As brother continues to sleep a little better I am sure my time will free up even more. Until then, please know we are thinking of you and missing you like crazy. Look forward to some upcoming pics of me with the airplanes and of course, with my little brother. Don't tell anyone, but I am actually starting to like that little guy a bit. He has a way of growing on me even though he makes mom hold him all of the time! Take care and call us soon. Better yet, stop on by...we'll be looking forward to it! Lots of love and hearts with chocolate. Please be mine, Cooper B.
