The amazing adventures of Cooper. Picture post!

Well the title says it all.

Cooper is everywhere, I took the liberty of following Cooper around the house with my camera so I could share how curious Cooper has gotten these past few months. Gone are the days when he would lay quietly on his blankie looking at the flashing lights of his infant toys hanging above him.
I'm not complaining, I think he's so much fun now. However, he is scaring us big time with all his little daring adventures. I wouldn't dare leave him alone for even a split second.

Cooper just started his new 2 days at Mrs. J's house this past week. She told me he did great :)
Cooper flirted with the college girls that work for her and played great with the other kids. I was so happy to hear that. The rest of the week he was with his Mimi. He did great all week but all of his caretakers made it a point to say to me "oh my goodness, he's just so mobile and into everything". The New Mrs. J's daughter told me that they thought that Cooper was one of the most well behaved babies they had ever had at the in home daycare. Then she goes on to tell me that he is also one of the most active 9 month old babies she's ever had. Can those two even go together?

Yes everyone, we are fully aware of him being so mobile. We new this day would come and boy did it. I can remember mentioning to you all just a couple months ago how mobile he has been getting. I had no idea what was in store for us. He is ten times more active and all over the place now then he was then.

So here is a small highlight of what Cooper did today (ha ha for like 20 minutes). You can imagine a full day. Its not like I didn't realize he would be this way one day, and its also not like I don't think other babies are this way. Its just never been my kid that was all over the place. Now that it is, I'm just going to come out and say it. Its exhausting!

He made his way through nearly half of our house, and quickly I might add.
We have had to do some new baby proofing. We had decided to watch him closely and add on some of these baby proof things as we go. He's never really been all that interested in going anywhere near the fireplace and we never leave him alone or un-watched to even take a chance at him getting hurt by it. However this week he decided he wanted to climb on it. NOT COOL COOP.

Here is the lovely new baby proofed fireplace. Check out the stylish foam lining around the edges. Anything to keep our baby boy safe :)


"Hey mom, I think I should show you how I can climb up and hang off of this table :)"
"Ha-ha, I 'm hanging "

Look another table.
" I bet I could get that thing open"???

"Too bad Mom took all the good stuff out of the drawer that I could play with"



"They don't like it when I go over here"

"What is this thing"?

" My toys"

"oops! Now how am I going to get it"?
"I'm just going to take this little thing over hear"

"and put it in this thing"
"My mom made me get away from the fireplace"

"Fine, then I'll just play with my school bus".

"Hey, I want to go play with those...."
"I'm ready to move into the next room"
"Mom, are you coming"??

"OOh, my diaper bag :)"

"Is that my paci"??
"IT IS, IT IS"

NEXT....

"I think I'll go this way now..."

"Hey look the computer room, and my play table :)"

It went on from here. I just got tired of chasing him around the house.

He is one busy little curious boy that's for sure.
