He's a hard working boy...

When I came into the Case & Logan's room the other day I found Logan holding a screwdriver (don't worry Mama Anderson it wasn't a real one). He looked like he was working hard on the walker toy. It was so cute & I know it would have made his Dad proud (& his Papas too). He didn't get hurt at the end of the video like it looks-he is a very tough little guy.

Make a Joyful noise...

We think Case is super talented. He can play ball, he can dance & he can sing...boy can he sing. We thought we would share this cute little "singing concert" Case put on last night in the bathtub with all of you. Hope you enjoy!! By the way just so you know the first song he sings is "Sorry" by Buckcherry then he sings "Bartender" by Rehab & then I think you can figure out the rest. Luke taught Case "Take me out to the Ballgame" so Case thinks it goes "take my daddy to ballgame...". I thought that it was a very cute interputation. I think the sound was messed up a little on our camera but it only last for a second or so.

So may I present Case Eli Schaper in his bathtime debut...

What's new with us...

I've been reminded that I haven't posted anything lately...Sorry Papa Steve, I will try harder! So here is a little update on what's new with us.

Most of you probably know that I started watching my neice and nephew in December. It was a bit of an adjustment for all of us and most days I'm just flat worn out but it's going well. I just don't have all of the leisure time that I was used to and now actually have to go to bed at a decent time. In fact most nights we are in bed by 9 which would explain why there has been only a few posts this year. But it is a blessing because I get more time with Cooper and Dannee and I also get to stay home with my boys.

In Jan. Cessna decided to cut some jobs & thankfully Luke's was not one of them. We are so very THANKFUL for that. Luke's been busy cutting wood for our furnace (which in itself is major blessing-it has cut our gas bill down to a third of what it was last year). He has also been doing a few fun things lately too. Like ordering lift kits & wheels for his jeep. And he recently got to take his jeep and 2 of his brothers to Disney, Ok to show them "just what his Jeep is made of". Apparently Neil & Joel & all of the other Jeepers (I'm not so sure that's the correct term) were very impressed. I'm sure I would have been too.

Case Eil has been up to-well no good actually. I think he has decided that he will test the waters with Mom to see just "what I am made of". It's been a close call a couple of times but so far I'm still the winner. I love that little stink pot I just wish he didn't have to live up to the "terrible two" standards. He really is a sweet little man, so considerate of others (especially baby brother). He is quite the talker these days too. He has now started saying things like "what now? what now, Mom?" whenever I call him and "I already did" when I ask him to do things. He also asked me the other day for cookies & pizza, when I told him I didn't have either he said, "you just have to make it". After explaining to him that I couldn't because I was lacking a few ingredients, he politely said, "go buy it. go to walmart & buy it". The boy has an answer for everything.

Logan Joel has officially learned to crawl. I think I blogged back in December that we thought that he was maybe scooting around. He was. Then he learned to go in reverse but now as of last week he is actually crawling. He is everywhere now. He's even trying to climb up our stairs. And have I mentioned how chunky he is these days? Most of you know but for those of you who haven't seen him in awhile he's definitely healthy. A little over 20 lbs. now, so crawling is a big feat for such a thick guy to accomplish. Logan also pulled himself up to the wall last night using the step and is working very hard to get some teeth-poor little guy. It just doesn't seem like he should be doing all of this already. We are very proud of him. Proud of both our boys.

Well that is what's going on with us right now. Hope you all are doing well.
