Goals

The other night I stayed up talking to Cody about people that offended me or bug me during the day. After a long discussion I realized I was looking at all the "bad" qualities of these people and not their good qualities.

We all have things we need to improve on, we can find them in everyone. My new goal is to only look at the good in people.

Here is one of my favorite quotes I'm going to read every morning to remind me,

"There is good in the worst of us...

And there bad in the best of us...

So why judge anyone??

Memorial Day Weekend

We just had a great Memorial Day weekend! Cooper was blessed so we had both Codys family and my family (minus Jake and Kaci) come down. The blessing day was PERFECT!! Cody did such a good job with the blessing, the spirit was so strong. We waited a little longer than most people do to bless their babies because this was when everyone was going to be in CO. It worked out perfect.

Over the weekend we did so much! Starting with birthday breakfast, staying up and playing games, blessing Cooper, family bbq, watching movies, playing with the kids and shopping!

Coopers blessing day, he even smiled for the photo!

Sisters!!

We played "the bag game" this game was great!! The rules are you have to pick up the bag while standing on one leg and grabbing the bag with only your teeth! It was very entertaining.

*LOVE*

SMILES

I never knew a smile could bring me so much happiness! I love it, he is so precious!

2 Months Old!!

Mr. Cooper is 2 months old today, I cant believe how fast time is going by. He is such a sweet little boy, I love that I get to be his mama!

Things to remember...

* He is now weighing 13.5 lbs! He is getting so chunky, I love it!

* He is almost 25'' long, which is tall for his age.

* He is smiling all the time! My favorite is when he wakes up from his naps and I go in his room, he always flashes me the biggest smile, like he is so exited to see me:)

*He is getting very strong. He holds his head up so well.

* He will take a bottle from Cody! I love this because I always worried when I left Cooper, wondering if he needed to eat. Now I can leave and not worry cuz if he needs to eat he will take the bottle. Wonderful!

* He is becoming a GREAT sleeper! He goes to bed at 7:30pm and wakes up at 7:00am and eats usually once at night! And he takes great naps.Usually 3x1.5 and 45min cat nap in the evening.

* He loves to sleep in his crib! Not so much anywhere else. I think I am to blame for this one. But he really only sleeps when he is swabbled and laid down. This makes church super hard because he will not sleep more than 5 minutes in his car seat or in my arms.

Mothers Day

I got to celebrate my first mothers day this year! Cooper gave me a present of sleeping 7 hours that night. He new exactly what I wanted:)

Grandparents

We are very lucky to live close to Codys family. They all love to spend time with Cooper. Its funny they see him about once a week and they always comment on how big he is getting and each time he has a new trick to show them. Smiling is the latest one! He is always smiling!

This is when we first brought him home. He looks so little!
