Fast Weekend

Where did the weekend go? They just go by so fast. We stayed close to home this weekend. We had our family pictures taken on Saturday evening in the Ft. Worth Stockyards and I can't wait to see them. Cooper did great, I think Shannon (the photographer) got some really good pictures of Cooper and us. She should have a sneak peek ready for us in a few days. Cooper and Johnny were up most of the night not feeling well so we stayed home from church on Sunday morning for some much needed rest. Cooper got a Step 2 climbing gym for his birthday that we are going to use inside since winter is coming soon. He LOVES that thing, he has learned to climb up the ladder part all on his own and slides down the slide on his belly head first. He has the most awesome smile on his face when he is doing it. Last night Cooper went to bed at his normal time, but woke up a few hours later and wanted to play. I don't want to get in the habit of letting him so this, so we had to let him cry it out for a little bit last night. I cried and he cried. Well, he really screamed. It was awful, but I know it will get better in a few days. He has always been a good sleeper. He is really starting to get his own personality, he is a strong-willed child that is for sure. Johnny and I both have strong personalities, Cooper doesn't stand a chance to not have one of his own. I hope tonight is not as bad as last night...we'll see.
