These socks are made for walkin'...

Coop LOVES to walk around behind his train.  He is not good at turning around though, so when he rams something and gets stuck, he gets bummed.  We spend a lot of time turning him around.
Need. Bigger. House.

Gettin' around...

1 year picture preview!

We got a few preview shots from Coop's 1 year picture shoot this weekend:

So pensive

And his male supermodel pose (he did the total last minute turn-and-look-back-over-shoulder thing)

More Soon!

1 year check up!

Dr. Short confirmed what we all know - Coop is doing his baby thing fabulously perfect!

He is meeting his milestones wonderfully, growing and thriving and healthy and strong!

He is 29.13 inches tall, and weighs 21 lbs 2.1 oz.

Nana came with us to the doctor's office, and Mom is kicking herself for not taking along an extra grown up to all of his appointments!  Lots of cherrios and songs and love kept him feeling pretty good, and even helped after his 5 shots.  :(
(He still cried, but for the 1st time Mom didn't, so we are getting somewhere!)

Here he is showing off his tough guy bandaids on his chunky little baby thighs:

Dear Todd,

I have NO idea where the smudges on the glass doors come from.  No clue.

Birthday pictures!

Birthday pictures are in the album!

P.S. - Cake is REALLY GOOD.

Woops!

Woops!  First I had the camera but no cord at home, now I have the cord but no camera at work, so birthday party pics will have to wait.

As a consulation prize - here is a little bit of Coop looking steady and ready for walking (soon) for your Monday morning!
