Snuggles and Locks
Cooper has just started giving snuggles and it melts our hearts. He will rest his head on you and make the “ahhhh” sound. Cooper was surprised today when he went for the chemical cabinet and Daddy installed these lovely locks. Childproofing is moving to the next level at the Kochman house.

Celebrating Adelind’s First Birthday
Rob’s college friend, Skip, and his family live very close to us. Their little girl, Adelind, is just 2 months younger than Cooper. Cooper was happy to confirm for us that he can definitely say the word dog and really, really likes dogs.

Rainier
What an amazing family day trip. Earlier this year we planned out our summer weekends to make sure could get a couple of trips off of our bucket list. I have always wanted to see the wild flowers at Mt Rainier and this weekend, we did it. On the way down Cooper kept us entertained…

Grumpy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-eikGIaf8k We tend to capture super smiley Cooper pictures and videos. Just to prove he is a real toddler with a spectrum of moods here is grumpy Cooper. He usually gets a little cranky around 4:30 each afternoon. Today was an especially grumpy day and we believe he is either fighting a cold and/or teething.

I Can Open That
Giving Cooper some play time while I unloaded groceries I left him in the living room. On my return trip from the car Cooper greeted me from the front porch. Apparently he can now reach and open doors that open inwards (including the front door). Time to use the deadbolt.

Celebrating Caden’s First Birthday
It is always fun to visit the Mashruwala family in West Seattle. Today we celebrated Caden’s first birthday and loved watching him dive right into the cake! Cooper explored all of Caden and Zane’s toys. He had two favorites, the soccer ball outside and the walker when we were inside.

First Haircut
Could I look any sadder? The cutting hasn’t even begun. The first haircut, one of those experiences that can be told through pictures. We were extra lucky to get to have Diane (Mom of my high school friends Jen and Steph) be his first hairstylist. Cooper cried during most of the cutting process, but Diane…
