Mr. Smarty Pants....

I forgot about these pics!! My dad kept putting his glasses on Cooper when we were out in Utah, it cracks me up!!! I'm sure it made his world even more blurry...lol!

"well mom...I think we should start out with the calamari"

I wonder if my dad's glasses with mess up his vision....hmm....something I didn't think about :)

Just Hanging out....

Cooper is getting cuter & cuter every day (I know...I'm biased). We've been playing a ton my last week at home and below are just a few pics. He laughs so much these days, I love it!

He is finding tummy time ammusing!!

He loves looking at himself in the mirror, I'm convinced he could sit in front of a mirror for hours!

Just hanging out watching his weird/amazing/disturbing Calm Baby DVD. My friend Jen gave me this DVD for x-mas it's truly incredible. Basically a couple women went out and filmed colorful objects, put it to music and have made thousands!! Cooper loves it, it does calm him down immediately and gives me a few moments to get things done!!

Home again...

So we're home and getting adjusted to being back after our fun vacation in Utah. I go back to work on Feb. 2nd so Cooper and I have been playing a lot to make every minute count!!

Practicing tummy time....doing his push ups!

I love little fat rolls on babies. I've been calling Cooper my little butterball.

Jon really missed Cooper. I took this the night we returned while Jon was trying to get the little man to go to sleep.

Jon decided to have a photo shoot while I was at the gym one night. I found this while cleaning out the camera today... Cooper seems so intrigued!

Holidays in Utah Part Two....The Fogt Girlz

All my little helpers below. Cooper loves his grandma & aunties!!! I really wish we all lived closer, my life would be so much easier :)

Grandma Janet & Coop....my mom is the baby whisperer. She can calm down Cooper no matter what his little breakdown consist of.

Auntie Jill & Andrea...I love this pic of them....such pretty aunts!

Aunt Jill is finding Cooper's breakdown funny, I'm glad somebody does.

Mom & Cooper after one of our walks in the snow....Utah is so beautiful this time of year.

This is Aunt Sophia (Brent's wife). We all LOVE Sophia; Brent really lucked out big time. Cooper loves Sophia too, she is so good with him and is going to make the best mom one day! I actually think hanging out with Cooper made her want a little one sooner then later, we'll see :)

Holidays in Utah Part 1: The Fogt Men

In true Fogt style...all of my family pics won't fit on one blog entry because the file is too big....shocker!!! So, I've decided to split up the boys from the girls. My dad is a HUGE Cooper fan. He played with Cooper for hours, it was really cute. Plus, it was great because I got to roam around freely because my dad was always willing and ready babysit!!!!

The proud grandpa. My dad has actually called me at least five times since we left to see if Cooper can come out and play; he really misses his grandson!

Uncle Chris (aka Future Man). Chris is literally 10 times the size of Cooper, it's scary!

Uncle Jeff. Jeff is a natural with babies/kids....I would leave Cooper with him any day. Too bad he lives too far away to babysit on a regular basis.

Uncle Brent...making Cooper laugh and laugh. Brent is one of the most entertaining people I know; he is constantly making us laugh.

Matt couldn't make it out this year and I have a special pic of Mikey & Coop that I'm trying to dig up which deserves a post all alone so stay tuned!!!!

Rolling Around

Cooper is starting to roll around a bit...well...roll over from his belly onto his back. Check out the video!

Fun in the Snow!

Utah has been getting dumped on! I'm here until the 13th of January...whoa hoo!! Jon had to leave on the 3rd and Coop & I miss him dearly. My mom & dad have watched Cooper for me a few times so I can hit the slopes....thanks again mom & dad. Of course, I have to bring my pump up to the mountain which has been interesting but that's another story.

Up at the Canyons...what a great day!

Jon took Cooper on his first snowshoe!

New Year's Eve

My parents watched Cooper for Jon & I on New Year's Eve so we could have a night off and have some fun! THANKS MOM & DAD for giving us a night off :):) We went to the Canyons to watch the fireworks and listen to a band in the freezing cold. We had some warm drinks to keep us moving...my feet were frozen! Afterwards, we went to a friend's house for a little party but couldn't even hang out very long because we were all so tired. We ended up back at Kelley & Pete's house at 11:45pm so we could bring in the New Year and go to bed immediately! These pics were taken in the beginning of the night, when we were all still awake!

Not a lot has changed since college....all we do is laugh together. I love my girls!

Shasta & Greg....Shasta says that '09 is going to be her year to get engaged & prego!! Go Shasta!

Kelley & Pete...so cute!! Thanks so much guys for ALWAYS letting Jon & I crash at your house, eat your food & soak in your hot tub!

All I'm thinking is "make it to midnight so I can kiss Jon & then hit the sack for some zzzzzzzz's"

Cooper's First Christmas!!

Cooper spent his first Christmas Eve & morning up at the lake with Jon's family. We flew Christmas day to Utah to visit my family. Of course....our flight was delayed out of Charlotte & we missed our connection in Phoenix but we eventually made it to Utah...14 hrs. later! Cooper was a real trooper, he was great until we were about 30 minutes from landing in Utah and then he had a minor melt down but we survived!

Grandpa Burke & Mimi

All smiles....

Cooper loves his Grandpa Burke!
