Cell Phone Pictures

It has only taken over two years, but I finally figured out how to get the pictures off of my cell phone. A lot of these are really old, but here is a little of what we have been up to for the last couple years. Enjoy. : )



Cooper and Grandpa Nelson











Cooper LOVES to break-dance!




Filming of the MTV movie "American Mall". It was MTV's version of High School Musical, but if never quite caught on. They filmed it at Provo Towne Center mall, so we watch a lot of it while my mom and I would walk in the morning.












Cooper looks so little!


Cooper and Derek out of the golf course. That is still where you will find them every Friday, and sometimes every Saturday too.








Derek and his grumpy face. He will probably be mad that I posted this one. : )











Cooper and his cousin Paisley.




This is the only picture I have of my first Republican Party State Convention. That was a day I will ALWAYS remember.



Cooper moving into his "big boy bed".





This is the first time Cooper met his new cousin Jordan who had just been adopted from Morocco. Jordan wasn't too sure about us. We LOVE Jordan and Cohen!!



Playing Guitar Hero at Katie's house.



This was the night of the primary election. Jason is about to answer Chris Cannon's phone call.



More Cell Phone Pictures...



This is Cooper getting his first filling. His dentist said he was the best kid ever. He wished all of his patients would be as well behaved as Cooper was. (I know Cooper is a good kid, but I think the laughing gas had a little something to do with it.)



Our kitchen in the middle of painting our cabinets. We made such a mess!



State Fair Pony Ride-- A family tradition for 4 years now.










Cooper playing on the toys at the mall after we were done walking one morning.


DISNEYLAND!






This was right after Cooper went on Tower of Terror for the first time. Handy Manny made everything all better! He cried the first time, but then couldn't get enough of it the rest of our vacation.








My chubby little guy. : )



More Dentist Pictures...




Cooper LOVES getting his picture taken.




Exploring the red rocks in St. George.








Cooper wanted to be a photographer.



It wouldn't let me rotate this picture, but it was too cute to delete.




My chubby, bald, little guy... (He does have hair now!)







OUCH!





Shawn Bradley at the Salt Lake County Convention. He is one tall dude!




Awww... these 2 are BEST buds! Cooper wantd me to take their picture this day because they were both wearing green.






These two sure love each other! I LOVE being their mom!








Another sideways picture that was too cute to delete.



Hammond's candy factory in Denver.





The Aquarium in Denver.



Cooper getting Nemo painted on his face at the aquarium.

My little Coopster

Cooper has been growing up so fast lately. He is learning so much at school and primary, and we are so proud of him. He was just singing me a song, and I couldn't help but post it on here. I thought it was pretty cute.
HUMPTY DUMPTY SAT ON A WALL
HUMPTY DUMPTY HAD A GREAT FALL
THEN ALL THE WISEMEN AND COWBOYS CAME
AND PUT HIM BACK TOGETHER AGAIN
********************
On a sadder note, yesterday at the library Cooper took a tumble and was rewarded with a gigantic fat lip. It wasn't a pretty sight. He freaked out for a few minutes at all of the blood, but I was so proud of him for calming himself down and being tough through the pain. I wish I would have had a camera to take a picture of his reaction the first time he looked in the mirror. He immediately said "That doesn't even look like me".
I feel so lucky that I was sent such a good and sweet boy. I'm so thankful to have him as my best little buddy. He tells me every day how "cute and pretty" I am, and always knows when his mom needs a hug. He is growing up so fast, and I love that I get to be his mom.
