Fourth and Goal

I don't have a lot to report today but I didn't want to let down my loyal readers. I know Mamaw and Papaw are expecting something to read after their coffee.

Cooper seems to be having more awake time lately. Today he was awake for at least half an hour. Partly because I gave him another sponge bath and I think it stressed him out a little. It stressed me out too. Half way through the bath he decided to do his Play-Doh Fun Factory impression again! This kid just doesn't like being clean I guess. It looks like his cord should fall off anytime now. It's just barely hanging on there. Grandma Debbie can expect it in the mail soon after.

I also tried to take some pictures of Cooper today with a football. The goal is to periodically take pictures of him with the football so we can see how he grows over time. He wasn't overly cooperative because right as I would take the picture he would push the football out of the way! Maybe he's a sports prodigy (or maybe he just wiggles a lot).

It may not look like it but he is starting to gain some weight and fill out a bit. Chris and Aunt Carole decided his knees look like a Stretch Armstrong doll the way they have the extra skin around them.

This is an up close and personal shot. I hope all that hair falls off his back before bathing suit season.

Is it a full moon tonight? He's going to hate me when he's about sixteen and sees this picture but I just had to document the fact that he's finally starting to get a rear end.
