A White Christmas!!!

This was Cooper before we left to go to the Wiemers for Christmas. He loves to climb! As you will see from the pictures below we had two wonderful Christmas'. The weekend before Christmas we headed down to Scott's parents for an early Christmas and then we spent Christmas with my family. We had lots of good food and good times! We are so blessed to have such wonderful families!!! We did get eight inches of snow on Christmas Eve that stayed around the whole time we were at my parents. We played in the snow and rode behind the ranger on sleds. Cooper loved the snow and didn't want to come in. For more pictures and video's go to my sister's blogs on the side. Thanks to everyone for EVERYTHING and a GREAT time!!!

Cooper Dancing

Just a quick video of Cooper Dancing this weekend. I will post pictures of the Wiemers Christmas later. Busy week ahead.

Cooper's Walking!!!

As you can tell we are so excited Cooper is walking! He has been talking 2-3 steps here and there and then today he started just standing up in the kitchen and took off walking. It is so weird how they just start doing something all of a sudden.

Breakfast with Santa, Early Gift, and Bethlehem Revisited

We had a busy Saturday. We started off our day at church having "Breakfast with Santa." It was really neat! They had different centers for the kids to go to and then they got to hear Mrs. Clause read a Christmas story. All the kids came in their pj's and they had some delicious foods. After that we all came home and took a little nap. Scott put together Cooper's new Climber play set he got for Christmas from Mimi, Pops, and Chad. He got it early because we had to have it shipped to our house or we would have no way to get it home at Christmas. He really enjoyed it and I bet he will be ready for his naps because he crawls up and down the slide over and over and over. After Cooper played on his new play set we headed to Bethlehem Revisited at a local church in Waxahahchie. You step back in time 2000 years ago and walk the streets of Bethlehem. It is a live nativity that you get to see innkeepers, merchants, craftsman, clergy, and other citizens demonstrating history. There are also live animals. It was really neat to see history relived. Next we headed to our class Christmas party and enjoyed a lot of good food and fellowship. Her are a few pictures from the day.

As you can tell Cooper didn't like Santa too much!

Us with Mrs. Clause.

These are a few videos of Cooper for Mimi, Pops, and Chad to see since they we not here in person to see him get his present. Thank You so much it is a hit!!!

Cooper is 14 Months!!!

This is a picture at PF Chang. He is eating with the huge serving spoon!!! Ha Ha
Today Cooper is 14 months old. He is a little ham and keeps us on our toes. He is such a blessing and brings such joy to our family! He is truly a gift from God!
Cooper :
* is taking a few steps
* new words are: butball (football), bobo ( I always tell him to sit on his bobo when he stands up in the high chair), ball
* weights about 22 lbs.
* likes to sing "This Little Light of Mine" and blows when you say " don't let the devil (blow) it out"

Gana was taking Cooper for a ride.

Is this not a funny face? Ha Ha!!!

Thanksgiving, Christmas Decor, and Video

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with Scott's family this year. We stayed 4 days and stuffed ourselves all 4 of them. We just hung out around the house, did a little shopping, and went to look at Christmas lights. Cooper entertained us all as always. He even started saying a new word "butball" (football). He would go up to the TV when a football game was on and start saying it.


Tye trying to pull Cooper around on his 4-wheeler.

Daddy showing Cooper the goats.

Oooo....

Pops and Cooper looking at Christmas lights. We went to Santa's Forrest to look at the lights. It was 12 acres of lights that you drove through and looked at. Cooper enjoyed it for the most part but towards the end all he wanted to do was crawl around in the truck.

Not the best picture of Cooper but I had to show him in his little hat.

A close up of the tree. I added feathers and berries to the tree this year. Surprisingly enough Cooper is doing well with the tree.

The Christmas Tree.

Cooper helping Daddy put up Christmas lights.






Cooper is Daddy's little helper as you can tell. He was helping him do laundry tonight. Scott would drop it on the floor for him and he would bend down and put it in the dryer. Too Cute!!! Sorry it's a little dark.

Video

This is a new face Cooper makes. You know when you are getting on to your kid, you look at them and say their name, tilt your head and open your eye kind of big. One day I did that to Cooper and he looked at me and did it back to me. I laughed so hard when he did it. Now we call it his "getting in trouble face." He has also started saying uh-oh. We were putting up Christmas stuff last night and he was in it all. It will be a challenge to keep him out of the tree.

13 Months

This is one of Cooper's 1 yr. pictures. I can't get it to enlarge so...
Cooper is 13 months old today. He really has a little personality and is jabbering a lot. He can point to his eyes, clap, likes to put on peoples shoes, likes to rub soap and lotion on, sings this little light of mine and puts his finger up and whirls it around, likes to blow his nose- he puts the tissue up to his nose and blows with his mouth (so funny), his new word is night-night, and he has 5 teeth.

Halloween

This is Cooper in the costume contest.

Cooper was a hunter for Halloween. He looked so cute I would have to say! We went to a trunk or treat at our church. They had "Mummy Dogs" to eat, a costume contest, and lots of trunks all decorated up. I have a few pictures of the trunks all decorated up. They went all out.

Cooper was feeding our friend Mitch some cotton candy.
