He gets his moves from his mother

Finally, I got around to getting some video up on the blog. Sarah chastised me that Mary was much more productive at getting video on her blog, so I had no choice.

So anyway, here is a picture of Cooper showing off his fancy dancing maneuvers.

Cooper at 3 weeks

Somehow its already been 3 weeks since Cooper showed up. It seems the days just fly by (I think Jill might disagree), but its easy to see how much he's changed in just over 20 days of his life. Evidence of that is the fact that when he was just born, most people thought he resembled me more than Jill. Now 2.5 weeks later, everyone seems to think he favors Jill (which is a good thing). He seems to have Jill's skin coloring and face shape, and maybe has my eyes and skinny little arms and legs. Whatever mix of the two of us he ends up being, I think we'll keep him.

Jill and Cooper share a nap


I think he got his Dad's belly too


He loves his Pistol Pete mobile, and I'm a sucker for his little puppy hat so we get lots of bedtime pictures

Cooper's weekend

A good, relaxing weekend. Cooper got out to take a trip to Boulder to meet his favorite aunt, took the dogs for a walk, took a trip out with me to give Jill some time to herself and entertained one set of grandparents via webcam. That's a pretty busy weekend for a 3 week old, but we all know he is probably more on par with say a 16 or 17 year old by this point... :)

Pics from the weekend

Sarah and Cooper hanging out on the rooftop patio


Cooper literally hanging out, legs dangling from the Baby Bjorn.


Already a ham for the camera


After his big day on the town, he decided to check out the new crib with his monkey buddy

Catching up with Cooper Photos

I've been getting hazed by people who have a fever, and the only prescription is More Cooper! Sorry, in our journey through daytime television we watched something on E! about the 100 best skits in SNL history, and who can't resist reusing an already overdone cowbell joke right?

Oh yeah pics of Cooper...

Here Cooper checks something out while knocking out a bottle


Soon his eyes shut, but he keeps on at the task at hand


Maybe I should have called it good...


After feeding, its time to be put down for sleep (and admire the sweet Pistol Pete mobile)


But of course, he has to ham it up a bit for the camera too


One of my favorites that I don't think I've posted up yet, from about an hour after he was born


Another one of my favorites


And one from his "lets try to look like Charlie Brown" photo shoot.

Cooper's Room, ready at last.

It has been a long, drawn out process of getting Cooper's room finished. The crib we ordered in mid-March, didn't come in until the day before he was born. Once in, the hardware to put it together wasn't correct so it couldn't be assembled. But persistence paid off, and we now have Cooper's room setup initially (more decorations to come I'm sure).






And Coop finally gets to check out his new crib. He was intrigued with the tiger on the pattern. Lets just hope he isn't "allergic to tigers" like his Aunt Sarah was at an early age.
