So much to talk about.

First of all thank you everyone who let me know they are followers. I was able to go around and become of follower of all of your blogs as well. =) I am following a ton of blogs. I have a hard time keeping up with the day to day posts as it is. However I absolutely love reading everyones and can't ever pass up a new one. So I will do my best to keep up with you ladies.

I am just now getting to be able to post pics from our night out with friends last Saturday night for our friends birthday. I of course only took one picture of everyone at the table that night. Other than that I forgot to take pics all night long. So I will post those three pisc in just minute. We had so much fun though. Our friends are great. So sweet and funny. We had a blast. The restaurant was really nice. It was called the "Garlic Rose". Its Italian food and they serve a rose made of garlic cloves that have been baked. You use a knife to get the garlic clove out and its so soft you can spread it on your bread like butter. That was neat. Cooper was a Prince all night. He was so good and everyone enjoyed seeing him. He sat and enjoyed watching everyone eat and talk to him all night. He's such a good boy.

Lets see what else do I need to update on??? My husband and I made a decision about childcare for Cooper. It was difficult and depressing but we did it. After going and touring centers, and after calling friends. We decided the best place for him is at the learning center I used to work for. Its the best we saw, I still know most of the teachers, its super clean. They teach and are actually a private School once the kids are in Kindergarten. Even with him being under a year they do age appropriate teaching and developmental activities with the kids. They have a daily schedule, even art project with the babies. I worry about him getting sick. I worry about how expensive it is. Ridiculously expensive, it was the most expensive unfortunately. But its a really good place and its all worth it. He starts a week from Yesterday. I'm so nervous. I cried and hardly slept last week a few nights. I just keep seeing this terrible image of him freaking out all day the first week he is there. Horrible. But I honestly do think he will enjoy it once he gets used to it. I truly think he will love being around other kids. I can't wait to get through those first few weeks. Then hopefully we will all be ok.
Coopers Nana and Aunt who used to watch him will pick him up 2-3 days a week and keep him a few hours for us until we get off of work too. This helps me not to feel like he lives at the daycare. It also gives them time with him each week. They are both heartbroken they can't watch him anymore.

Hmm anything else new this week???
I'm Catholic and had to give something up for lent this year. I chose to give up Pop, which is more difficult than I thought. I also like to give up something every year that is a personal issue that will make me a better person. I like to work on something about myself. Last year it was gossiping. This year I have decided to give up being so critical of others. Holding grudges and not even really noticing, or having a quick temper. Being so sensitive to things people say. These are things I can really work on. Sometimes I swear my hormones get out of control and I let things get to me more than I should. I get so mad at people that I stop talking to them for a day or so while I cool down (this is worst case scenario). Its usually a co-worker. But for the most part I do get along with people. I find myself being so sensitive to things that happen and I take things personally when maybe its not meant to be that big of a deal in the first place. Its not a good way to be and it just makes my day worst. If I have to work and be away from my baby I might as well enjoy my job and the people I'm around. So I'm making a big change in my attitude and the way I take things and my anger when someone isn't pleasant towards me. I've already noticed a huge change in my days just since last week. Hopefully I can make this work always.

About Cooper:
Cooper is still working on learning to sit. He is sitting still quite wobbly but he's getting better. He also keeps trying to pull his knees up when he's laying on his tummy but each time he gets one leg up and under him the other straightens out again. Poor guy just can't get it, even with help he can't get it. In time he will. Right now he keeps trying.
He has been "razzing" for a while now, but just lately he's been really bad when he's eating about just suddenly spitting his bottle and cereal back out and razzing it causing it to fly everywhere. He doesn't laugh but he seems quite amused. It drives my husband and I crazy. Although the first few times we laughed. "Awe how cute, he's so funny, look at his tongue he is spitting it out". YAH HAHA, very funny, now its all over everything AGAIN! No big deal but not so funny anymore. He's really doing it almost every single time he eats now. Just another stage I'm sure. He's still funny, we still laugh all the time, he still LOVES to hear music and to hear me sing, He still loves his bath. He's still our amazing little boy, with his amazing little personality.

I can't begin to tell you how smiley and funny he is. I try to catch it on pictures but sometimes just can't. So I have pics to share of him this week playing. One of daddy and him, one of mommy and him. And then the pictures of our dinner party for Codie's birthday last Saturday night.

Have a good rest of the week ladies.
