The Fourth of July

There may not have been fireworks this Fourth of July due to the bad weather, but we sure had a busy day. We took Cooper to get his pictures done at Sears. He wasn't in the best of moods considering that it was right in the middle of his nap time, but I think the pictures turned out pretty good anyways. Then we went to Mamo's house and hung out with the family. We had a fun and educational game of Scatagories where we learned about "Tall Oaks", "buffalo farms", and "peacock safaries". Long story....

We had our 6 month checkup today. Cooper weighs 17 pounds 6 oz and is 25.5 inches long. He is growing so fast. We are adding new things to his diet all the time. He is not too fond of peas and carrots, but we are going to work on that. He would be happy if applesauce was on the menu three times a day! He can sit up for longer periods of time now and he plays and chews on his feet a lot. He babbles constantly and says things like ba....ba and ma...ma which means "Mama" is just around the corner, right? Sorry, Greg, better luck next time with "Dada" being the first word!
