Our last weekly picture brought to you by Caitlin. :)

He was not in the mood for pictures, as he wanted to get to his Jeep ASAP!

[51]

Another week, another tooth :)

So hard to believe he will be ONE next week!

  

Sorry for no smile this week.  Most of them looked like this:

Somebody did NOT want his picture made today.  Which is why his official picture isn't great. :)

[50]

Starting off the week with a new top tooth!  We are up to four teeth now, and I see a couple more that should be through in the next week or so.  We shall see.

[49]

I can't believe there are only 3 more weekly pictures after this one!  He is getting too big for the blanket anyway. :)

[48]

Yet another rainy Monday.  Not too many weekly pictures left though, so we made do with the poor lighting. :)  We are hoping to be able to play outside again sometime this week.  If there is room in our yard beside the ark anyway.

And some bonus cuteness:

[47]

Hope you had a Happy Easter!!

This is pretty much the only carrot he will eat. :)

[46]

Another dreary Monday, but we're excited because after over a month of not sleeping well, Cooper finally slept ALL night!

[45]

Dreary day today, but Coop is all smiles.  During the day anyway :)

[44]

Our first weekly picture from TN!  Cooper is still adjusting to the new house, but we hope one day we will sleep again.... :)

[43]

Our last weekly picture in Atlanta!

[42]

Coming to you from KY this week...

[41]

Cooper has discovered his pointer finger and loves to investigate with it.  He will touch his food with it before eating and even knock over towers with just his pointer finger.  So cute!

[40]

Had a great weekend with Aunt Caitlin!

[39]

[38]

Going to be a beautiful week here!  We went to the park yesterday and are hoping to go to the river tomorrow!

[37]

Looks like we are gearing up for another ice/snow storm.... oh, joy!  At least that means J might be home all week. :)

[36]

A whirlwind weekend just ended... maybe one day I will post about it.  For now, here's Coop!

[35] & [8]

Double Whammy today!

And I can see from here on out, it's going to be difficult to get a good weekly picture!

 

Clothes: a few 6-9 months (most have been put away), 9 months, and some 12 months :-0!

Growing Up: Coop has TWO teeth (although they aren't very visible unless you are looking)!  He also is army crawling.  He only uses his left arm.  It's so cute!!!  He is getting pretty good at it.  Coop can get up on all fours when he wants to (which is usually in his crib.)  I would say 6/7 nights he sleeps all night.  He is also eating solids!  This has been so much fun to watch.  He is already getting smaller pieces in his mouth (though no bean/pea small yet.)  He LOVES eating, too.

Likes: standing up (while leaning against something or holding onto fingers), sucking his thumb (and toes!), sleeping on his belly, doing the airplane with mommy, books, feeling different textures, throwing thing or watching mommy and daddy toss a ball, someone coming to get him up from nap/bed time, knocking down towers mommy and daddy set up, squealing, pears and sweet potatoes, anything with lights, his book he gets in the bath, crawling all around the living room, peekaboo, story time, playing with Georgie, mommy's plant, watching mommy and daddy in mirrors

Dislikes: Not being able get where he is going fast enough, having his diaper or clothes changed, carrots, Jumparoo (this was a big change because he used to LOVE it!), being cleaned up after eating, mommy feeling for his teeth, having his hair washed, growing teeth

Schedule:  

This is our basic schedule, but it changed depending on how well he naps and when he wakes up

7:30 - wake up
8:00 - breakfast

9:15 - nap

11:00 - play
12:00 - lunch

1:30 - nap

3:30 - play

4:45 - nap (if needed)

5:30 - play
6:30 - supper

7:00 - bath

7:15 - eat and bedtime

Moments:  Cooper has lived in two different years now! He is now in his big boy car seat and uses a big boy stroller (which we have used several times already).



I have slowly been reintroducing dairy.  So far, I think it's going well.  I am still eating mostly dairy free, but am not avoiding dairy if it's in food.  I have even had real milk!  No cheese yet though... that will come next week.  I don't want to eat too much and overload his (or my!) system, so I am not going back completely dairy free yet, but am hoping to get there sooner rather than later.

Coop has officially been on the outside longer than the inside!

I was lucky to get this shot...

 

Because then this happened...

Christmas post coming soon, I hope!
