Our Marly...

It is with great sadness that we mourn the loss of our gorgeous pet Marly. She passed away on Friday night quite unexpectedly. She was the greatest dog and she will be hugely missed. It didn't matter who met her, they always fell in love with her. How could you not with all the face love she wanted to give? She is probably spending most of her time running around in my parents' backyard which we always called 'Marly's Heaven'.

We love you Marly!

Three Months Already!??!?!

Unbelievable. Cooper is three months old on Thursday. We are having so much fun with him. He laughs now, mostly with his Daddy. It's adorable. We have had quite a few weeks. I started back to work part time on the 21st and full time today, it's been going alright. I just do my best not to talk about him or look at too many of his pictures during the day!

We said goodbye to two of our closest friends (Brandon and Jill) last week, they left to move back to the midwest... I can't imagine why they wanted to get out of the desert! There was a great going away party for them and we even had a babysitter for Cooper so we could go and enjoy!

Two weekends ago Nonna and Papa were in town to visit their grandson, oh and to babysit! We got to go see the new Batman movie and go to dinner. It was lovely. We also took Cooper on his second hike out to Red Rock. It was a bit warm but we got some good pictures and it gave Marly some much needed exercise. The picture in the sling is fitting because Cooper has spent many a nap in that sling in the last few weeks because we've been out and about so much!

Last weekend we took our long awaited vacation to Pinetop, AZ. First we stopped over in Flagstaff for the night and took Cooper to NAU. We took him to Raymond Hall where Ryan and I met and got him the cutest onesie at the bookstore! We visited with Ryan's grandmother for five wonderful days in the beautiful weather. We went for a great hike in Greer and I got to have a facial and a massage! We also got to see Nonna and Papa again! Cooper got some much needed bonding time with his great grandmother. I think he'll remember her from now on. We look forward to that trip every year. I don't like to wish away the time that Cooper is little but we did find ourselves talking about how he would be walking on the hike this time next year (at least a little bit)!

He is just a wonderful baby and we are so happy to have him around.
