Coop's first school fundraiser!
Yep, they start 'em early now days!
Actually this year's fundraiser will go towards something Cooper will be using before we know it - the "toddler playground" at his daycare! (Last year's fundraiser re-did the playground for the bigger kiddos, and it is AWESOME and safe and fun, so we can't wait to see how the new one for the little guys will be.)
Also, the school partners with a fabulous program in Colorado called The Women's Bean Project, which is a very well-known and respected program that aids women in ending the cycle of unemployment and poverty for low income families. People in Colorado love their soup mixes and baskets for gifts!
Here is the website - take a look around, browse the "purchase products" section, and if you decide you want to order something in support of Coop's school, just be sure you enter the "Coupon Code" CTCEC11 when completing the online checkout (on the same screen where you input payment info) and the order will be shipped to your address! The Fundraiser ends Nov 14, and all products will be shipped in time for Thanksgiving! (No pressure, just thought we would put it out there since they are great products from a great program AND they benefit his school!)
And here is a pic of Coop at daycare - he says, "thanks everybody!"

Halloween Hijinks continue, AND Coop's new pad
Cooper got a super sweet new play yard thingy, suitable for entertaining other babies, hanging out in a doggie free area, and generally doing his baby thing in style and space!
Here he is sitting up in his bumbo so he can get his hands on one of the awesome toys around the sides:
Very nice!
We also put on his skelleton costume and headed over to a party for a little while on Sunday - most of the other kiddos were a little older, but Coop got lots of love from the moms, like mom's friend Cyndi:
And here he is in the new play yard in his costume, (showing ya all the new cool stuff at once!)
More pics of the weekend are posted in the album too!

Pumpkin Patch fun!
Coop's school has a little pumpkin patch every year, affectionately known in our house as "Pumpkins for Jesus."
Today he put on his "lil pumpkin" outft from Grandma G and headed over to pick out the family pumpkin!
With Mom and Dad:

And with Grandma and Grandpa too:
And OF COURSE looking cute among the pumpkins:
And all of that pumpkin patch adventure led to a very tired lil pumpkin:

Coop gets possessed, and Grandma and Grandpa G are here.
Coop's tiny baby cold was on the mend when last I posted. We were so happy - YAY!!!And then he got the stomach bug from hell.
Poor little dude was sick. Like really unwell. Like WHOA.
Here he is convalescing in his bunny swing:
And right in the middle of all of this, poor Grandma G and The Granddaddy arrived for a visit:
They brought Coop this jaunty newsboy hat:
After several trips to the doctor, and some very long nights for momma and Coop that made a newborn sleep pattern look downright luxurious, yesterday brought the reemergence of this fabulous sight:
And today when I dropped him off at school, he grabbed Miss Deb in a huge smiley hug and then went right to chatting it up with his buddy in the exersaucers, with barely a second glance at momma. (And she is thrilled that he feels good enough to be his sweet social self again.)
Hopefully we can do some fun, if slightly-more-lowkey stuff with Grandma and Grandpa during the second half of their visit, now that Jr is starting to feel like himself again. :)

And having "observation time" at the doctor's office. Poor kid, so wiped out.

And when you are sick, it is always nice to have an extra cuddle, after all:

6 month check up!
Another fabulous check up for Cooper!!
Weight - 16 lbs 1.8 oz
Length - 26.5 inches
He had another round of shots, including his first flu shot - and cried only long enough for the nurse to get the band-aids on, before he was back to his usual charming self:
All is well in Cooper-land!
