This Little Piggy

Cooper has found his feet. If he's on his back you can pretty much guess what he's going to be doing.

He has also discovered that he can stick out his tongue and he does it A LOT! It is so funny!


Multi-talented: he can do both at the same time!
We also got to hear him belly laugh for the first time last night.
Changing daily and getting more fun by the second.

Trip and Cooper's Trees

Last month Dad and Grandpa planted trees for Trip and Cooper in their yard. Here are a few pictures from it.



Cooper and Dad watering his tree.


Sitting on the tractor. I'm sure he'll get a lot of rides next summer.

4 Months

Cooper is now 4 months old. He's learning more and more everyday. He's really trying to figure out what in the world his hands do. He got his 4 month shots yesterday and isn't feeling the best today, poor little guy. At least I get a lot of cuddle time!
He's full of smiles. He's still talking a lot in the mornings, so much sometimes that we don't get done eating until it's time to walk out the door. He seems to be the happiest on his changing table. He'll talk forever and flap his arms and legs like he's going somewhere.
He's rolled over to his stomach on the couch several times but gets stuck there.


Can't decide if we are going to smile or cry.


He really likes to play in only his diaper, that's when he moves the most.

This is my favorite picture right now. He's grown to love his bath. He'll even splash every once in a while.

2 and 3 months

Cooper is 3 months old today. Time is flying by so quickly. He's doing well. He weighs right at 12 pounds. Needless to say he's a chuncker already. We see changes daily. We're still working on holding our head up but he's doing well at it. He is a very happy baby. In the mornings when I wake him up he always smiles after he gets his stretches out. Then while eating he has to stop and talk to me making it even harder to leave for work. He takes forever to finish eating because he talks and laughs and kicks and squirms so much but I love it. What better way to start my day than to have a good laugh and see such big smiles with my little man. God has a sense of humor giving me a morning baby. The good thing is he sleeps through the night and typically I'm waking him up to eat so I'm more awake when he's ready to chat.




This is last months bear shot. He wasn't very happy with us. I thought it was cute. Notice the double chin getting bigger! That's my little snuggle bug :) gobbler and all!

Due Dates

So last Wednesday the 15th was my due date and tomorrow is my sister-in-laws. Cooper was already here for my due date for a month and theirs will be here very soon!
Kirk and Aimee, my bro and his little wifey are expecting their bundle of joy any day now. Cooper will have a cousin very close to his age. Originally Aimee and I had due dates a week apart. Gary, Cooper and I are so excited to meet their little guy. We are praying for a safe and fast delivery for them.
Aimee, Kirk is a big guy so take it all out on him, he can take it! :) We can't wait to meet him. Tell him Uncle Gary, Aunt Tammi and Coop love him. Oh we love you too!

Here are a few new pics of Coop.

He's my little monkey. I love to cuddle him.
His little cheeks are getting bigger. He's around 8 lbs!

One of our few awake times of the day. We're still working on the whole days and nights thing.

One Month Old Today

Today Cooper is 1 month old! Time is flying by already. Let's see today we have had breakfast lunch and a snack, and a few naps. How do we find time to fit it all in :)


I love this onsie. Gary got it while I was still on bed rest while my mom was here. We couldn't believe that he'd be big enough to fit in them yet they were so tiny and now he's almost too big to wear them. He weighs 6lbs 8 oz and is 19.5 inches long. He's getting so big already

.
I promised my Mom and Courtney that I'd take his picture by a bear to see how much he grows. Courtney do you do remember this bear? He snuck to PV on your move!

Baby Cooper your Mommy and Daddy love you. You've already been such a blessing. We are loving watching you grow and getting all the snuggle time we can get! You are amazing.
