At the park

We had a great Sunday at Mt Tabor Park.  It was a little cold and windy but lots of fun exploring nature together and playing with Riley of course.

Playing while Mommy doesn't feel well

Cooper has been a trooper the past three days while I have been ill and Sharon is in California.  I was able to take him to the park yesterday with Riley for a brief time, he liked that.  Today, Susan is taking him to the park with Riley.
Cannot wait until tomorrow when Sharon comes home we miss her so much!!!

A couple photos

I haven't posted any pics in awhile.  We've been enjoying our daily walks with Riley.  Had a great weekend, Saturday was a beautiful day and we went to the park with Cooper after buying him a Little Tikes car and kitchen from a second-hand store.

Here is Cooper helping Mama cook, before we got the kitchen.
Here is Cooper in the awesome sweater CousAunt Kate lusciousluka made.

New word

We got snow again this weekend.  Cooper woke up, looked outside and said "no, no".  It's funny because he does not say the word "no" yet.  He shakes his head no when he does not want to do something but he hasn't verbally said no to us.
I've taken two walks in the arctic weather here and froze Cooper's hands off.  The first time we had to get a ride home from Sharon because Cooper wouldn't stop crying (very unlike him).  Today it happened again and I was able to run home before he totally lost it.  I really need to get him some warm mittens, poor guy.
Cooper still likes to say "bike". He learned that from Uncle Bill in Fresno last week.  He also really wants a bike like his Cousin Noah.  We saw one at a consignment store and he stood by it the whole time saying "bike, bike, bike".  Pretty cute.

Arctic Blast 2008 Part 2

We had more fun in the snow yesterday.  It just keeps on snowing.  My mom is wondering when the snow will stop.  She's hibernating in the kitchen, baking fresh bread and treats galore.

Arctic Blast 2008 aka Snow in Portland

We had an awesome snow day today.  Cooper's had this snowsuit since last Christmas and was finally able to wear it today.  We actually need to get him a bigger size now but it worked for an hour.  He loved the snow and being outside with both mommys.  We played with our neighbors for a little while and when our neighbor 10 year old asked if he'd eaten the snow yet (which he hadn't) he decided to try it.  That was the end of that, we found him sneaking snow off our boots once we came inside.  Stinker.

Thanksgiving Photos

Here are some recent pictures of Cooper.  He is super fast now and rarely stands still for a photo.  He is a runner, still loves trucks, planes, dogs, and cars.

Yosemite and Fresno Trip

Our first day in Fresno we took a trip to Yosemite National Park.  Sharon has wanted to take me up there for 4 years now but the weather has always stopped us.  The trip was awesome, we saw El Capitan, Half Dome and visited the famous Awahawnee Hotel.
