Grandpa's Shirt

Hi everyone, here are my most recent pictures. I am wearing Grandpa's big shirt. My grampy lives close and even though I don't get to see him as much as I would like, he still chases and plays with me. I am lucky to have my dad's dad so close to me. My dad never had his grandparents close to him and my Grammy, Grampy and Grandma live close by and I have fun playing with them and letting them see me grow up. Unfortunately I was never able to meet my mommy's dad, and get to play with him. But I know he is watching me grow up from his great seat in Heaven. So once a year I put on my Grandpa's big Garst shirt and have my pictures taken, just a way to have some memories. As you can see, I look pretty dang cute in it. Have a wonderful day everyone!! Love you all Cooper

Christmas part 2

After Christmas at my house with Grandma (did you like the picture of me and her in the sled?) and Uncle Jarret, it was off to Grammy and Grampy's place. There waiting for us was Grammy, Grampy, cousin Jena, Uncle BJ, Auntie Michelle, Auntie Dana and Uncle Perry and of course all the food we could eat. But I wasn't too much in for eating, I saw a tree full of presents. I knew right away which presents were mine, because they were wrapped in Thomas the Tank Engine wrapping paper. Lets just say this was a musical Christmas. I got a recorder, a drum set with different instruments inside. So know I have my own drum, keyboard, recorder and guitar and if that isn't enough I get up on my little table and sing to whoever is in the room. You don't get to see the picture of me signing in just my diaper. Oh did I forget to tell you that my girlfriends came over and gave me a Bob the Builder video. It is so rough being 2!!

Dad has been slacking!!

The Holidays have come and gone and a lot of you have no idea what I have been up to. Yes my dad has been slacking and has not given me access to the Internet. Since my last entry, a lot of things have happened. The biggest was Christmas. I really figured it out this year. Christmas started with Mom,Dad and I going out to the tree farm to cut down a Christmas tree. Once we found one, dad tied to the top of the car and we were on our way home. Soon I had a Christmas tree that smelled so nice. That tree lasted 2 weeks and then dad had to take it back because all the needles were falling out. All I knew is that I took a nap and when I woke up I had a new tree in the corner. We soon decorated the house and Mom pulled out the Peanuts Characters and I learned a little more about Snoopy, Charlie Brown, Linus and everyone else. I also had fun watching some Christmas videos on TV. I watch Charlie Brown, Frosty and Santa Claus is Coming to town. Soon Uncle Jarrett flew in from San Fransisco and I was lucky, he almost didn't come because he was sick, but he came out anyway to see all of us. THANK YOU!! Christmas was almost here we started by going to the nursing home to see Auntie Ann, and getting yelled at for taking my new popping lawnmower down the nursing home hallway. You know what, I don't care what people said, I was still cute running up and down the hall with my lawnmower that Auntie Ann gave me for Christmas. You know what? They could get upset with Mom and me, but I still looked cute.

When we got home, I put cookies out for Santa and I also wrote him and Santa Mouse a note. And off to bed I went. The next morning Dad had to wake me up, let me tell you next year I will wake him up. Down stairs we went to look at the cookies. The cookies were gone and there was a note. Santa wrote that he borrowed a sippy cup to get some milk and hopefully I was okay with that. After, I looked at the cookies dad put me down and told me to go look at the Christmas tree. I ran over there and I saw all kinds of presents and a big red sled. Here are some pictures from our Christmas tree hunting until Christmas morning.
