Ok, I know that I have totally been neglecting my blog.. I admit it...I have been cheating with facebook!! LOL ;) Well, at the urging of some (yeah, you Sherry!) here are some pics from our life since June~sadly, that was my last post!
4th of July we went to Magazine to John's grandparent's house to cookout and shoot fireworks with the cousins. Well, we found out that Cooper didn't like them any more this year than last, but he was fine as wine as soon as he got in John's truck to watch the show!
Cooper's friend Eli had his birthday party at a firestation, so that was super cool to Cooper! I don't think the firemen knew what they were getting into with that many 3 yr olds! No, seriously, they were great! The kids got to climb on the trucks, see the station, and hear the sirens! It was a great time!
At the end of July, we went to OKC to the OG&E Lineman's expo. It was H-O-T, but Cooper had fun and got to jump in a bounce around and go down one of those big inflatable slides, not to mention getting to operate a backhoe by himself (sorta)!
First week in August we went to Branson/Silver Dollar City. It was a super fun trip albeit exhausting~one more day would have made all the difference! (oh well, live n learn!) We stayed at the Grand Country, it has it's own indoor/outdoor "waterpark"~really fun! I had never in my 36 yrs been to SDC, so it was extra fun getting to experience all the rides/attractions with Cooper. I had no idea how BIG SDC is! It is huge! LOTS of walking! Luckily, there are lots of shade trees, so that helped some. The best decision we made was renting a "stroller" for the day! At least one of us got to ride everywhere!
When we got home, Cooper had his very first dental appointment! And, much to my excitement, he came thru like a champ..no fits, and NO CAVITIES!!! :)
After August, I was the worst mother ever....no pictures until this month! (OCT) I think that is the longest I have went without taking a picture of him since his birth!! Oh well....
I will try to keep up better from now on! (yeah, I've said that before!)
