6 months!

My little boy isnt so little anymore! He is now 6 months! He weighs 17 pounds and 26 inches long! Here are all the things that you have learned in just the half of year that you have been here.

: You can sit up by yourself for over a min.
: You love to eat, eat and EAT!
: You love to snuggle.
: You can hold your own bink and put it in your mouth.
: You have the cutest laugh.
: You love to talk our ears off!
: You can hold your head up for 10 mins during tummy time.
: You love to play peek a boo.
: You can roll over.
: You can go all night without a bottle.
: You sleep through the night.
: You love to jump, jump and JUMP!
: You have the funniest angry face. (which he just recently started about 2 days ago).
: You make your momma and daddy so happy that you are in their lives, and they sure couldnt live without you.

There is just a handful of examples of all the things that my big boy can now do. I cant believe how fast 6 months have gone by and I look forward to what the many years bring with our little Coop. We sure are blessed to have such a perfect little boy!

Cooper's first hair cut!

It was a scary thing to cut our little cooper's hair. Most babies are not lucky enough to have hair like that so we didn't want to ruin it. We have been thinking about it for a while now. after all he did look like Donald Trump n(But still so dang cute!)...Cam decided that instead of using the clippers we would just use the scissors and take a little at a time. His hair was really long and we actually ended up cutting quite bit off, but it turned out great! Cooper was sitting in his new high chair and had just finished eating. We decided to skype Craig, Jo-anne, and Ragan, we were talking about his hair. Cam just up and decided to do it. Everyone was so nervous to let Cam cut his hair. But did great. He looks so much older! Its funny how one little haircut can make all the difference! He sat there just fine the entire time and didn't make a noise. He played with his toys the whole time. It was fun to have everyone watching Cooper. It was a good experience to have everyone involved and share that with Cam's family.

Finished Product! Daddy did a great job. :)

My Big Boy!

I decided that I would start Cooper on baby food. Cams been away working and I wanted to wait for him to get home before we started. But I knew that Coop was just ready! He eats his rice cereal so well, and doesn't seem to get as satisfied with a bottle. So I thought today would be the big day!

I wasn't sure what type of food to have him start with. I knew though that I wanted to start with Veggies. They say to start a baby on veggies because fruits are so sweet. If you start out with fruit they will always prefer that over the vegetables.

So I chose.................


Green Beans

I wasnt sure how he would do. If he would like the flavor or texture since its nothing like anything he has had before. But of course like everything else about my sweet little Cooper he ate like a champ! Everything he does is just perfect. We couldn't be anymore blessed!

Tummy Time!

Changes Changes Changes

Cam is out selling this week.... Ugh!!! and will be gone for a whole week! I hate it when he has to go out for long periods at a time. He is selling out in Kingman AZ. Selling makes me nervous.. You never know what type of people you might run into. Going from door to door, to peoples houses that you have no idea who they are. It just makes me a little worried. I'm sure he will be just fine! But of course as Cam would call me " The worry wart." But I'm so glad that he is willing to go out and provide for our family and that I am able to stay home with our little boy!

As most of you all know that Cam has started working for Pinnacle. It is a Security System business. We will also be moving for the summer. The company gets most of their business during the summer months, They transfer you to high crime areas that of course need the products that the company offers. So we will be moving out of state! San Antino Texas! Talk about nerve racking! I have never lived out of Utah. Pretty much out of good old Logan. Second off leaving here and taking our son with us to a place we have never been before and living there for 4 months.

It will be different. It will be hard to be away from family for that long. and Im sure it will be hard for them to be away from little Cooper as well. We are taking a risk! A BIG one at that! But we feel like this is the best move for our family. Its comforting to know that it will be temporary. That we will be back to Logan after the season is over.

Great day!

This last weekend was my 24th Birthday! 24. Man!! I feel like I am getting old! I had such a great day and so glad that I had my little family to share it with! I had NO idea what I wanted for my birthday when Cam was asking me I couldn't think of anything! All I could think of were things for my little Coop. Its so funny how when your younger you could think of all these material things that we could think of getting as presents on your Birthday. Then when you have children of your own you just want everything for them and would much rather spend your birthday money on them and for them. Material things don't matter anymore. You just want the best for your children. But as I got thinking I thought it might be fun to go out with a few of my girl friends to and have some "girl time" So we went and got our nails done. Then after that Cam met me with Cooper and we went to lunch with some of our friends. My mom always has a tradition to make our favorite meal for dinner and make us a cake. She made her famous tiny spicy chicken with rice. It sure was yummy! After that we decided that we would go see the Vow. While my Brother in law watched Coop while we went. So I had a really great day! Thanks to my wonderful friends and family for making my Birthday Special and for all the gifts!!

Better then we expected!

Cooper had his Physical Therapy this morning. I was a little nervous, just wondering what the he might say about Coops head and wasn't sure what to expect. People had told me horror stories about babies wearing helmets. So I was worried! They took a look, measured his head and told us that his head was a "7".. K?? what does that mean? The therapist then explained that there is a category from 1-7, 8-12 and so on.. the higher the number the more severe it is. 7 meaning mild. So his flatness is MILD! YAY!!! NO HELMET!!! He told us that its not anything that we did. It could just be genetic. I thought it was funny.. he said that he always takes a look at the parents' head as well and told us that he thought cams head was a little flat. That just reassures that fact that Cooper is a mini Cameron for sure! Everything like his Daddy. Even his flat little head! He just showed us some home exercises that we can do at home to help improve his head. He assured us that it he would most likely grow out of it if we do what we are supposed too!
