Future so bright...got to wear shades

Cooper has a new accessory...his cool, blue shades. Below are a couple pics from our walk this past Sunday when the sun finally came out!!!

Hanging out...just chillin

Just a few pics from the week...Cooper is so much fun right now. Giggles constantly and has discovered his hands & feet...which he likes to suck!



I love that look & smile...he loves to roll around the bed.

Saturday morning....7:45am...Jon is still asleep...Cooper not so much

This is Jon saying "seriously....a flash this early...come on"

33 & Barbie....

My crazy work friends decided to throw me a surprise b-day afternoon at the new Lucky Strike bowling alley. They entered me as "Showboat Udders" for my bowling name; other names were just as disturbing. It was a great afternoon full of a lot of laughs and Jon picked up Coop so I got to hang out a little longer then usual :)

Kit Cat & Fox were behind the whole scheme. When Fox (far right) picked up the cake, they handed her barbie's clothes in a ziploc bag....LOL!

The whole crew...outside after someone set off the fire alarm...hmm...

Kiss Me, I'm Irish

Cooper celebrated his first St. Patty's Day by wearing green & feeling lucky!!!



All dressed in green & ready to go!!!

Kiss me, I'm Irish

Get in my belly

It was a pretty mellow week. Cooper is now eating cereal out of a bowl with a spoon...exciting stuff! Well, I'm not sure if "eating" is the right word. He gets it EVERYWHERE! He seems to like it so far, it actually taste better than I thought it would.

A pic from his very first feeding...

Cooper kept putting his hand in the bowl & in his mouth so Jon thought it was a good idea to put a metal hanger around his arms to restrain him. I thought this was a bad idea for many reasons but let Jon take one quick picture...then I took it off immediately. I do have to say it is a good idea, maybe not with a metal hanger though.

Fat rolls, love baby fat rolls.

Grandpa Bob is in town for a visit!!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!!

Fun in the Sun

Ahh...a taste of spring has finally arrived! It's been sunny & in the high 70's the past few days. We have been taking full advantage of it.



Jon dressed Cooper in his swim shorts even though I told him the lake is too cold to take him in the water. Jon told me "he needs to wear them, just in case". Hmm...



Hanging out with Jon on the porch...it was 80 degrees!!!

Wearing his new hat (thanks Craig & Kathy) & sunscreen, of course!!


Working hard with dad in the yard. Jon can't wait until he's big enough to get to work!

I know...I suck at blogging these days!

I really don't know where the last three weeks have gone!! I will try harder to blog more frequently...promise. The below pics are from the past few weeks....Cooper is getting so big!

Just hanging out in the sun room after a long, exhausting day with his girlfriends at daycare...

Jon dressed Cooper in his Master's outfit. Jon is very proud of this outfit.

Cooper had to come to work with me one day...there was a minor crisis at his babysitter's house. The rotovirus plagued the little girls and I didn't want Cooper exposed so I found myself running down the streets of Charlotte with high heels pushing a stroller at 7:45am in the morning. Luckily, Melinda saved the day and picked him up around 10am and watched him the rest of the day. This is him taking a nap in the my cubicle.

Craig & Kathy came for a visit to Charlotte over a fun weekend. We had a wonderful time and they both enjoyed playing with the little guy. Too bad they live so far away.
