A few updates

My camera has been broken for a few weeks and apparently Wolf Camera decided to shut down!! Anyhow, I found a camera store today so I'll take it in this week and get it fixed so I can keep blogging about Coop!! Below are a few pics from the last few weeks.

Jon & Cooper out of the shower....Coop's wrap is a hand towel.

Aunt Andrea came to visit for Jill's Bachelorette weekend and stayed a few extra days to hang out and watch Cooper. They spent hour in the kiddie pool soaking up the sun.

Grr....I'm going to eat you!!!

We'll Lead As Two Kings

Finally, the men get a weekend alone and access to the blog (Please note Tenacious D reference in the title of this post). Cooper and I (Jon) spent the weekend living like Kings since Michelle took off to the mountains for Jill's bachelorette party. They spent two days getting massages and talking about their feelings. We spent 48 hours in Man Town.


A massage did sound nice, so Cooper and I went to Brookstone and got chair massages. The manager said something about age limits and safety. Cooper farted.


After the massage we decided to hit the tattoo parlor. Cooper wanted to get a tat that had a deeper meaning for him. He ultimately settled on "I heart boob."


On Saturday morning we passed the guy from "Can't Buy Me Love." He has not aged well. Two more lawns, though, and Ronnie will finally be able to get that telescope. For laughs, we waited until it got dark, lit a paper bag of poop and put it on his front door step.


Smoothies and the mall? Nope. Black coffee and Lowe's.


Nothing like a little music to get the Coopster ready for nap time. Amy Mann sucks. Alice in Chains rules. Facelift. Bleed the Freak. So yeah.




Sure, the iPod has songs about female angst. It also has Metallica. And Metallica also rules.


Michelle made some food and labeled it for me, in case I got dementia halfway through the weekend and forgot the bowl of pureed orange stuff in the fridge was for Cooper. Instead of sticking to the menu we decided to free wheel it. Peas + carrots + oatmeal + tofu = a balanced dinner. Steak + potato = chest hair. And chest hair is what the ladies want.


Speaking of ladies, after dinner and drinks, Cooper decided it was time to make some booty calls. He tried texting the girls from daycare on his cell but couldn't get anyone to hit him back. Beotches.


Saw Ronnie again on Sunday. He was not happy about the flaming bag of poop.

Run Forest Run...

Cooper thinks he can walk unassisted. He keeps launching off everything and falls on his face. He loves his walker because at least he can roam freely without falling!

Just a few close up pics...

I feel like Cooper gets bigger every day...below are just a few pics of him goofing off

This is his "cell phone". I got it when he almost broke mine because he sucked on it too much and it had some water damage. I tried to fake him out with this one but he can still eye mine from across the room and crawl towards it at rapid speed!

Whoever invented teething biscuits needs to have their head examined! I've never seen such a huge mess in my entire life...the rest of the box went in the trash!

The look of determination

Minus the red eye...I love the face he's making!

A visit from a couple extended Shows....

Uncle Matt came into town for a few days as well as Jon's cousin Emily. We had a great time and Cooper spent plenty of time showing off his skills....crawling, climbing all over and putting everything & anything into his mouth.

This is Coop showing Matt how he eats grass

Cooper is on to the next thing...he has a very short attention span. I'm pretty sure I asked Matt to keep Cooper from crawling all over the grass with ants...hmm...

Poor Emily, Cooper is going through his "mama boy" stage.

Ahh...much better now that Grandma is distracting him with food!

Park City- Part One- Bumming Around

I have been the ultimate slacker! We've been going, going, & going the past three weeks. Really, we've been vacationing and it's been AWESOME. Cooper & I spent the past week in Park City with my family swimming, hiking, playing tennis, goofing off and trying to keep up with dad's workout schedule. He truly is the most fit 6o yr. old I've ever known; in fact he's the most in shape person I know period (well besides Future man...aka hopeful Olympian Chris).



This pic cracks me up....Bill is hilarious....on so many levels.

Coop loved the people mover at the Canyons, we rode it twice!!!

Jill, Dad & I were like crack heads at the farmers markers...when it came to honey butter, cheese & more cheese. We bought so many random things. Dad made friends with every vendor!

Mom in training...the natural...Sophia. Cooper LOVED his auntie Sophia, she is going to be the best mom. She's due Oct. 1st & we're all so excited!!!!!!

Park City- Part Two- Jill's Bridal Shower

Below are the second set of pics I couldn't fit on the first post. My mom, Andrea, Sophia & I all hosted a bridal shower for Jill (well mom basically did everything but we pitched in here & there). I'm so excited for Jill!!! A bunch of her friends from high school came & it was fun to see them act silly together again. Jonathan was a good sport too....he is so easy going!



Andrea made us pose for a ton of pics...this one actually turned out nicely!

Mike was the entertainment "behind the scenes".

Sophia is so freakin cute & preggers!! She is one of the most beautiful pregnant women I've ever seen. She did all the decor for the shower, she is so creative...it's amazing.
