Daddy's Shoes

Cooper has a new fascination for shoes. (I wonder where he get's that from, certainly not me!) He loves to go to the closet and pull out all our shoes and try them on. From mommy's heels to daddy's flip flops. He will put them on, sometimes backwards, and walk around the whole house. It's pretty cute. Here's to loving shoes!!

All ready for church

And my favorite of all, Naked Boy in Boots

I love playing in the...

Kitchen! Baby boy loves anything to do with the kitchen. He loves pulling everything out of every cupboard, tries to figure out how every appliance works, and of course loves banging anything together that makes lots of noise! Sometimes he drives me crazy cause all I do is clean my kitchen all day long. But I guess I should encourage this because one day when I actually want him in the kitchen helping me he wont want to. You can just never win I guess.

 Happy to be helping mommy cook. And in Daddy's apron no less.

                                                   LOVE THIS FACE

Thank Heavens For...

Heaters! And I'm not the only one. From a very young age I can remember my mom sitting on the stove, with the oven on and open, reading her book and eating ice. I would find her like this most days when we would get home from school. Now I don't do that, I just keep my house on the warm side and I do sit in front of the vent and just enjoy the heat! This must be something that is passed down from generation to generation because I have found Cooper many times in front of the vent. He knows right when it comes on, will jibber jabber to me (to let me know its on of course) and will run and stand/sit in front of it. He will do this EVERY TIME it comes on. It's the cutest thing ever.

Twins!

No, this is not an announcement! Sorry to disappoint you but as long as I have got you to come look at my blog, I want you to see the cutest twin cousins! Boston and Cooper look a lot alike, blonde hair, light skin, blue eyes, and yes, same PJ's! And it just so happened that neither one of them wanted to take a picture so this is what I got.  Still love them!

Sugar and sleep

So I must admit, Coop is my "Sugar Baby." He loves all kinds of candy! I may already be bribing him with candy to eat his dinner or clean up his toys. So what. It works!  And he does get very messy, sticky and slobbery. But thats ok, because a happy baby=happy mommy!

There is nothing more adorable then a sleeping baby. They are not crying, fussing or screaming; which makes them seem sweet for the moment. :) And this is a result of what happened after his sugar high. Zonked right out in his toy. But he is sweet when he sleeps, so we'll take it!

Happy Talk

Hello? Hello? Cooper loves to talk on the phone. ( I wonder where he got that from? :)) He will jibber-jabber all day long to you as long as you are on the phone. And he will pretty much use anything that resembles a phone to talk. It could be the remote, computer mouse, ipod, or toy. You just never know. He also knows where we put our phones up to charge them. He has learned that if he can just reach the cord and pull on it the phone will soon follow. :)
Also, sorry to anyone who has received a weird text or phone call from Riley or me. It's Cooper wanting to say hello!

B, b, b.

Boys. Binkies. Bathroom. My little Cooper man knows what he wants. And if he likes it, he wants more than just one. Make it 2 or 3. Cooper likes to have his hands full. Both are either full of food, toys, or binkies at all time, cause one just isn't enough. Binkies has to be my favorite. He will have one in his mouth, one in each hand, and sometimes one on the floor next to him just in case. He will switch them out and try another, and do this all day long. And sometimes we are even lucky enough for him to share one with us. :) Thanks Cooper.
Did I mention that one of his favorite spots to play is the bathroom? Kinda gross, but don't worry, I clean it multiple times per day, so its probably cleaner then most of his toys. :)
