I got a new pool!

Hey out there! First things first...HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO COUSINS KAMRIE AND CODY!! How in the heck is everyone doing? We are great! As you can see, I am living the life. Here I am soaking in my new pool and enjoying my new high chair to the fullest. What do you think? Posh is certainly for me, I wear it well. Guess who we just heard from...uncle Bart. Sounds like he is having some fun down there in NC taking care of business. Some guys tried to take advantage of him while building aunt Deb's dad's house. Let's say they picked the wrong guy to mess with! Hopefully all is well that ends well. We'll be keeping our fingers crossed! As you can see I am getting to be quite a big boy. I got a new tooth on Friday the 13th on the bottom right (that makes 3) and I have a new top tooth as well as an eye tooth on its way. They sure do make a little guy uncomfortable but I am hanging in there. Dad and mom have me walking all over the place. I am doing pretty good and practicing my steps every day. Today I leaned on the ottoman and did some shuffling back and forth. I have also been working on my crawling. I am ready to get going I tell you! Mom and dad say I am into everything. Bless their hearts, they look like a circus act when they hold me and try to eat dinner. It's quite entertaining. They try so hard but they are such amateurs. Did you know I am sleeping like such a big boy? Bedtime is around 8:30 every night and when I am home I take a one to two hour nap at 10am and again around 1-2 in the afternoon. How about that? I am working on it at Ms. Michele's but there is just so much excitement and I love to play with her and all of my friends. Oh, please join us by keeping Ms. Michele in your thoughts and prayers for her big day on Friday. She is also heading off for vacation and boy, are we going to miss her! We hope she will be thinking of us while she is relaxing on the beach. You know it is one of mom's most favorite places. We are hoping to get to go for a weekend this summer to Ocean City. Mom says it's no gulf coast beach but she'll take what she can get. I think she may be a beach snob! I am hoping to feel 100% soon, I have a little cold and these teeth are driving me crazy. Of course I am still in good spirits and giving away so many smiles and kisses. I like to grab mom and dad by the face and pull them to me, you should see the kisses I plant on them. They love it! Dad told me tonight that I run the house. You know I have them wrapped around my little finger. Speaking of smiles, please be patient with mom, she is working on getting my pics out to you but is having a hard time figuring out where to move since yahoo is closing. We are keeping track of where we left off and hopefully you will be seeing my smiling face in multitudes again soon. Better run, it's close to mom and dad's bedtime. Please take care and come and see me soon. I miss having visitors. Good news though, gram and gramps B will be here on Sunday for the week. Can't wait to charm the pants off of them! Love to everyone, Cooper B.
