family time!

Cooper has been lucky to have a lot of visitors since he was born, especially lately, including his 'Oma' (german/dutch for grandmother).
Here he is actually sitting and relaxing with her, instead of his usual standing/bouncing (forcing adult to exercise arms and lower back...)

(edit: in case anyone is wondering, he's wearing a White Sox outfit because Tobi went to a wedding in Chicago awhile back and she wanted to get Coop and Dad matching sports shirts.)

thanks uncle david!

here's a good shot of the coopstuff outfit (coop has a goofy grin going on...)

this one is a better pic of cooper, just before he grabbed the camera, and although he looks great in this, he's getting taller so quickly that he already has a hard time fitting in it (WEDGIE!!).

Pool time!

Pool time! We have a blast with him in the pool! First pic is like father like son...how cute!!! Next he's thinking...hmmm...this is a big bath! Third pic is his precious face...just love him so much! And boy do we have the sunscreen on him for sure, sweet fair skinned baby! :-)

(edit: tobi was supposed to get permission to put a picture of me with my pale, hairy, slightly chubby body. but, seeing as she's practically flashing in her pic, we'll call it a wash.)

Cooper...deep thoughts!

Here are a few pics of our lovely boy! Here's a good one of him in his "bumbo"...waiving and holding a ring. The next is from Grandmother Fine's birthday, with Cooper all dressed up for the event! And finally one of my favorites...this is from the 4th of July...what a precious face...so sweet and thoughtful...I wonder what's going thru his mind.

Probably something like why are we outside when it's so very hot out here?? And why are we all wearing red, white, and blue? And cool...that big giant bath looks really refreshing out here! :-)

We had a very relaxing holiday for sure! I just love his sweet little face...what an angel! We love you all!

Happy 4th of July! Cooper turned 7 months old on the 4th, so we spent the whole weekend hanging out, taking it easy. We did spend some time on the 3rd with Uncle Walker and Aunt Brenda, and we saw Uncle David and Cooper's cousin Devlin on the 5th. (Tobi and Devlin had some girl time and went to see "High School Musical" The Musical).

Here's a picture of Coop and Mom on the 4th, as well as Coop and Dad from a few days earlier.
