Things we have been up to!

We took Cooper to the petting zoo at Thanksgiving Point and he absolutely LOVED it! We were able to go with Bronson, Elise and Tracen. It was fun for Cooper to have a friend there.



This is Cooper and Matt looking at the goats.



These two are so cute. I sure love my boys!!!






We also took Cooper to his very first movie. He loved it at first but then he got restless. We took him to Born to be Wild in the 3D IMAX theater. We all look to good in those glasses. :)



Yay for Easter. This is Cooper coloring his Easter eggs. Matt made some pudding for us to eat while we colored our eggs. You can tell Cooper loved it!



We made it through coloring eggs with only color on our hands.



Cooper loved Easter morning. I am so sad I didn't take any pictures of him during his egg hunt. I recorded that and totally forgot to take still pictures. All well. He sure loved fining the eggs though and was way more into it than I thought he would be. He loved Easter morning.



The Easter bunny brought him an Aqua Doodle. He colors on it all day long still.



This is Cooper with his new cousin Callie and his Grammy. Cooper loves her so much and followed everyone around who was holding Callie asking if he could hold her. He really is amazingly cute with babies. Can't wait for him to meet his brother.

Go Blaze!

Matt and I have always loved going to the blaze games. We had season tickets their first season and we were able to go to the game last night with some of the Colemans. It was so much fun. Our little Cooper loved the tiger mascot and cheered through most the game. He did try to pull a fast one on us a couple of times and escape though. He was so confused why we were in this huge place and he couldn't go run around and play. We love every second we get to spend together as a family. We couldn't get Cooper to look away from the field for a picture though.



For document purposes; some of my favorite things Cooper is saying right now are, "mom, its too heaby" even when it is a tiny little book. He is becoming so independent and it trying to do things on his own and it will often end with him say "It is too hard." When I ask him to come to me so I can change his diaper he says, "No, its my poop" and runs away. The first time he did this I laughed for ever. If he likes something he will scream "I love it" with so much enthusiasm. If he asks for something and you give it to him, he throws his arms in the air and says "Yeah, woo hoo!" He loves dancing right now and always dances with his two pointer fingers pointing to the air and wiggles his butt. Really, one of the cutest things ever. He loves watching our wedding video right now and asks to watch it every single say. He truly is so much fun right now!

Fun Things

I can't believe how fast my little boy is growing up. While he was eating his cereal the other morning, he insisted on looking at the back of the cereal box. I can't believe he is even big enough to think of doing that. It was so cute. I tried to get a picture of him studying the pictures but every time I pull the camera out now, he insists on holding the camera and won't continue what he was doing. Also, you will notice his high chair to the side of him. He thinks he is way too big for that now too. He freaks if you try and put him in it. Cute little thing!



Matt and Cooper wanted to show me their favorite thing to do together...go to Cabelas. It was so stinking cute. We pulled up in the parking lot and Cooper knew exactly where we were and couldn't wait to go inside and see the animals. They showed me how they shoot guns too. It was the sweetest thing ever. Matt really is the greatest dad I could ever imagine. It is so amazing to watch them together.



In my last post, I posted about how Matt bought Cooper a stuffed horse at Cabelas during their last trip there. The excitement over that horse is still the same. Cooper loves that thing. Here are some pictures of him riding his horsey.



Cooper will randomly stop riding his horse and lift up the tail and say "horsey needs poop." He makes a fart sound and then plugs his nose and says "ewwww sinky!" It is so funny! Here is a picture of him making the fart sound.



Cooper is constantly asking everyone he sees to ride horsey's with him, although he is the only one that rides a horsey and everyone else rides whatever he hands you. Sometimes he will want you to ride a book that has a picture of a horsey in it, a rubber horsey that is 2 inches, or even just a blanket. Probably 30 times a day he says, "get on." Matt usually ends up riding Cooper's lion. Here they are with their animals riding them instead of them riding their animals.



We still have no idea what to name our sweet little boy on the way. Although I loved the suggestion of Farquar that some of you gave, I think I am going to pass :) sweet grandma lol! My pregnancy is going really well still. I am getting large and uncomfortable and still have 15 weeks to go but am so grateful to be large and uncomfortable because it is a constant reminder of the miracle Matt, Cooper and I are being blessed with. I wouldn't trade it for anything. It is so fun to just sit and watch my belly roll all over the place. I can't wait to see and hold our new little guy. Cooper can't wait either. My brother and sister in law just had a baby and Cooper loved every second we spent at the hospital talking to sweet little Callie. I am sure blessed!!!
