A couple of weekends ago, we took Cooper to the park for a picnic and photo shoot. He was kind enough to model for free and we (and by we, I mean Ryan) took copious quantities of pictures. Luckily, Cooper is an easy target. I got into a few as well. One thing that made for a difficult photo shoot was that Cooper likes to take most pictures on the run and it is ridiculously hard to stay in front of him, so many of the shots were side profiles or just the back of his head, and what a nice head it is. We were also lucky enough to encounter gale force winds which wasn't a huge problem for Cooper seeing as how he's still perfecting the art of growing hair, but it did make picture taking for me a little more problematic.
It is so fun to watch him watch things and learn about things. He says 'doggie' and 'outside' and 'bubbles' and essentially any word that comes out of our mouths; yes, we are working on our vocabulary daily.
This past weekend, Colette and Jake came up for a quick trip and we got to watch Cooper and Waylon play around. They enjoyed some quality time together while us moms had some margaritas out on the patio. This morning I was thinking how we had a bunch of pictures from the weekend but none of the two of us, then I read Colette's blog and she had the same sentiment! Before the boys were born, I remember entire weekends where we ended up with ONLY pictures of us... hopefully, we log that away and take pictures of us next time!
We really love our weekends. I am already excited for Friday!
