First Easter & First Injuries! April 12, 2009

Happy Easter!!!  Coop looked absolutely adorable today in his Easter outfit!  Pics to come!  They’re still on the camera!

We had a pretty laid back Holiday – Daddy had to help Grandma & Dale move today and Coop & I knew we had to get to church extra early to get a seat, so we had planned to get up early.  Coop took the plan a bit to the extreme and was up at 3am…  We were baffled becuase he has been sleeping thru the night for a solid month now.  I was able to get him back down with just his binkie, but he was up again at 4:30.  This time Daddy got up and made him a bottle, he sucked it down and went back to sleep until 7:30,  but that got us all out of whack for the rest of the day. 

Coop was an absolute angel at church and tolerated me driving him all over today, including being a champ at the grocery store – but he rarely gets a good nap in on the weekends like he does at daycare, and late this afternoon he got pretty fussy.  He did a little better with Daddy when he got home, but he was definitely out of character, so we’re wondering if his first tooth may be on the way.  I took a feel after his bath when getting him ready for bed tonight, and thought I may have felt and seen something going on on the top, but I know bottom teeth come in first…

So this week Coop got his first injury – and he actually got two of them.  I was trimming his fingernails Wednesday night and nipped the end of his thumb.  His lower lip stuck way out and he whimpered a few seconds, but it was not a major trauma and other than bleeding a while, we came out of it okay.  I think I was more scarred than he.  This morning Todd was hanging out with Coop in the recliner while I was getting ready for church.   He had Coop on his lap facing him with his legs up on the footrest.  Coop was having a blast talking to Daddy and was kicking up a storm.  He kicked himself right out of Daddy’s grip and fell backwards bonking his head on Daddy’s shin.  Again the bottom lip stuck out and Daddy’s heart skipped a beat, but everyone is fine.

Coop got a lot of great new clothes last weekend - he just can’t be squeezed into any of his 3, and most of his 3 to 6 month clothes anymore.  He was 15 1/2 pounds at the doctor a week ago when we took him back for his second bout of conjuntivitis.  So he and I did some shopping at Old Navy and Baby Gap so that he has some clothes to wear in his first formal pictures, which I SWEAR are going to happen this week.  I planned to get his pictures done when he was 3 months, and he’s not 4 months for 6 more days ;)
