Look What I Can Do

Cooper is sitting up. I have been working with Cooper on sitting up for a couple of days now and so tonight was no different except that he did it. I am so proud of him. He stayed up for a while so I had to share pics of the big event.

4 months



We had Cooper's 4 month checkup and he got an A+. He weighed in at 15lbs 2 oz and is 25.75 inches long. He is in the 50th percentile for weight and still the 90th for height. He once again got 4 shots. He did really good again this time around thank goodness. He is rolling all over this place and reaching out and trying to grab everything. We are working on sitting up now. Cooper and I go to yoga on Tuesdays and he just loves it. It is good for me too. I get all stretched out and get to exercise a little bit. Then on Thursdays we started doing Playwisely which is a class to help Cooper cognitive skills along with his physical development. So on those days when we get home Cooper is sleeps so good. I dont know if yall watch the TV show Yes Dear, but my bother in law Randy said that I am like Kim on that show with my mommy and me classes and stuff. So then I said well then that makes yall Jimmy and Christine. Ha Ha. it was pretty funny if you have seen the show.


Lets see what else has gone on over the past couple of weeks besides work because that is just no fun to talk about.

Our house is still on the market and still no offers. It does not help when 5 other houses are for sale on your street. There for a while we were not having any showings but this past week it has picked up and we have had a lot. We are still praying that God will bring someone along that will love the house and make an offer. The other house is going to get some foundation this week so things are moving along over there.

Trey and I went to the Rangers game last weekend with my cousin Amos and his soon to be wife and we had a really good time. Then on that Sunday my sisters and my mom and I went to the Dallas bridal show. For those that do not know my sister Sara the youngest is engaged to Jacob and so we get to have another wedding in the family. She just got engaged so she had not made any decisions yet, it is still early. They are thinking next summer sometime. I am so happy for her. She is going to be such a pretty bride.




Well that is about all that has happened. This coming week is just a busy work week so I am going to be extra tired.


hope yall have a good week

Fireworks

Cooper got to see his first fireworks show this year. We went down to Midlothian and had a cookout with the family and our good friends and then went and watched to fireworks show. Cooper did pretty good. I know that I have said this several times but Cooper gets pretty irritated if he is not to bed around his bed time. So with that said the fireworks did not start until after dark so he was a little upset at the beginning but then when the show started he was watching in amazement. We had a lot of fun. We got to hang out with family and also Shelley, Jeremy, and Jax.

Cooper is now 4 months old and as active as can be. We have his 4 month appt this week so we will get to see how much he weighs. Cooper is almost rolling over. He tries everyday, I think he is going to get is by the end of this week. He also just talks and talks and talks. Trey put him down to bed one night and he said that Cooper talked to himself for 45 minutes. He is just like his daddy :) We also tried rice cereal for the first time. It was fun, he did not know what was going on. He mostly just spit it all out.


So that is Cooper news. Now lets see what exciting things I can tell you about Trey and I. The house we are building is coming along. Coming along a little to fast since we have not sold our house yet. They have made the frame to pour the foundation. We have had like 8 lookers for our house but no offers yet. It does not help that there is like 3 other houses for sale on our block. So if we do not sell our house we will be staying right here for the time being.


Other than the house stuff and work we have not had much going on. Just been hanging out with all of our great friends that we love so much. So as always here are some pics.
