1st Ash Wednesday

Cooper attended his first Ash Wednesday church service and he did really well. I thought for sure he would rub his head and attempt to lick his hand. But he didn't even seem to know it was there.

Brushing Teeth

Cooper really enjoys getting his teeth brushed. I think he tries to eat the toothbrush.. ha!

Two Front Teeth & Sippy Cup Time

Well it took awhile but Cooper finally is getting some teeth. First he got the bottom two. Now he has a third one works its way in on the bottom and one on the top starting to come in. Its about time! We been working on the sippy cup with him for the last month or two. And he is really starting to get the hang of it.

1st Valentines

Cooper had a good 1st Valentine's. He enjoyed a date night with Grandma Boeckman. Joe and Deb had a 'night out' just the two of them, which they hadn't done in quite a while. They went to Morton's Steakhouse, with a gift card they had been hanging onto forever. They had an awesome dinner and a really nice evening 'out on the town'.

10 Months

Cooper continues to keep growing like a weed. He is probably over 23lbs. by now. Just within the past few weeks, he has started crawling forward. Before that he just did a lot of scooting backwards. Then he moved to a slow army crawl forward. And now he is just 'moving and groovin' forwards, backwards and a round in circles. Also within the last few weeks he has started pulling up. He is getting really good at it, and likes to just keep doing it over and over again. I think he is probably going to start walking before we know, who knows maybe by his birthday. Just today his newest thing is clapping! He gets really excited and its pretty funny.
