Bath Seat, Dixie Chopper, and Aunt Brooke!


Cooper had his first official Dixie Chopper ride. He loves to be outside and on anything that moves. Tractors, lawn mowers, four wheelers, whatever... I have a feeling next year he will be living outside! He even steered the Dixie Chopper all by his lonesome. He was not happy when I took him off dad's lap!

We finally got a bath seat from Babies R Us (thanks Lindsay Birt)! The first try was a bit rough, but Cooper is getting stronger at sitting up, so we've almost got this thing figured out. All he wants to do is eat the bubbles or whatever he can get into his mouth, so we now have bath toys to divert his attention. He loves water, and loves the bubbles in his bath, but most of all he loves his bath toys. When I stand up to get his towel, he starts to pucker up and cry because he knows bathtime is over. So cute!



Here is Cooper at Clint and Brittany's wedding. He did so good the whole time. He watched the first part, and slept for the rest. He was the hit of the party, aside from the beautiful bride and handsome groom! :-) He was very cooperative at the reception and danced with mommy on the dance floor.
Brooke stayed with us while mom and dad were in Kentucky on the Cumberland Mountain Outreach mission trip with the junior high kids from GCC. This was the first time since they've been going that Brad and I were unable to go, thanks in part to a certain little someone's inability to ride in a car! :-) Anyway, Brooke stayed with us. Cooper LOVES his Aunt Brooke and lights up whenever she talks to him. Here they were watching TV right before bedtime. It's one of Cooper's new favorite past times. Time to break out the Baby Einstein videos. He also likes to watch whatever you are doing on the computer and type with his toes.

Hi Heather,
Cooper is adorable, and he is getting big :-)

The bath tub seat is a great thing, Meredith used one of them.. she out grew it pretty quickly though, her chubby legs kept getting stuck at about 7/8 months.
Glad to see your postings!!! Hope you are all well.
Love
