Family

Today we went to spend the day with gram, pee paw, Great Uncle Bob and Aunt Sandy. Great Uncle Bob and Aunt Sandy live in Florida, it was a pleasure being able to visit with them. It was a fun packed day of soccer and football. One of the traditions of Granson men is when they all visit together they celebrate by eating White Castle for lunch, needless to say, Cooper had his first taste of White Castle, everyone was so proud of him, except for mom and gram who despise White Castle.

Goodnight

Every little boy needs to own a flashlight so that he can read books before bed.

Max's Party

Today at school, a buddy of Cooper's, Max had a party, he was transferring to the actual preschool room and also turning 3. He said that he doesn't want to transfer without his buddy, Cooper, which Cooper will be joining him in a few weeks. It is hard to believe that they are going to be 3. Max's parents hired a balloon artist for the party, Matt the Balloon guy, his work is amazing.

A cool motorcycle

The favorite bear of all time.

Tell me that this doesn't make you smile. (Don't forget to pause the sound at the very bottom.)

Currently Cooper's favorite things are anything from the Cars Movie, Thomas the Train and sports. He has found a new favorite place to play with his trains. Every kid likes to play hide and seek.

Just a lazy day playing outside.

Sorry there haven't been many posts last week and this week, Cooper has been under the weather and now has an ear infection, I promise to post more this weekend.

Sydney and Noah

Today we went to spent the afternoon at a cookout at Julie, Ted, Sydney and Noah's house as Sydney and Noah turned 1 & 2. Noah had his first taste of cake and he dove in without any questions.

Touch a Truck

Today we went to Homestead Park for their annual Touch a Truck day. Adam and Cooper loved all of the trucks, but their favorite was the firetruck and police officer motorcycle.

The lovely neighborhood squirrel that was making funny noises outside the window.

The Fireman Rescue Boat
Oh So Big

As the Police Officer stated the helmet is as heavy as Cooper is...(This is our neighborhood police officer who drives a BMW motorcycle, he had someone pulled over by our house the other day, I tried to talk to the Police Officer just in case.) We then ventured to the Homestead Park playground.

There is a cabin with seats where Cooper told his dad, "Dad, sit on the bench you are in time out, we do not push our friends." I guess at least he listens to what we say.

Saint Brendan's Festival

Today we had visitors from Cincinnati, Jon's best friend Brian, his wife, Karen and Cooper's dear friend Adam came to spend the night and enjoy the rides at the Saint Brendan's Festival. The boys danced, sang, rode rides and played on the train. The rides were the first rides similiar to a roller coaster that Cooper has ever experienced, he loved going up and down on the helicopters. Cooper is really missing Adam today and was sad that he had to go home.

Scooter Day

Life = Baseball

Life = baseball and all other sports is what Cooper thinks, well maybe cars too.

As he is getting older, his little power arm is starting to shine. Lets just say, somtimes, he beams us with some great pitches that we are not ready for. Maybe Cooper will be like his Great Uncle Bob and be in the minor leagues and have a chance to go to Major Leagues. I guess if that is his passion then go for it. Here are some action shots.

Not so much a baby anymore!

He even has the leg lift!

DOH!

HIS MEAN FACE!
