Cooper is already FIVE months old!!!

Check out this cutie!!!
So, Cooper is already five months old!! He loves to play, coo and laugh. He still hates tummy time. But, he is really the sweetest little guy. He talks to his daddy every night after his feeding. The two of them converse back and forth for a good ten minutes every night. It's sweet and Cooper is LOUD!!! He plays in his saucer now for longer periods of time and is learning to like his jumper too. His favorite thing is still the swing!!
This past month he has found his hands and feet. So, he sucks on his fingers a lot and grabs his feet when he's laying on his back! He is still a great eater and has started on cereal and fruit now. He's definitely a fan!!
Enjoy these great pictures...and thanks to Aunt G for the handsome shirt!!

Daddy-Daughter Dance

Today was the Daddy-Daughter Dance. Rachel and Brooks had the BEST time ever! Rachel has been looking forward to this for MONTHS. Literally...this has been a huge deal in our house. We even made Rachel her own calendar so she could cross off the days until the dance. Rachel and Daddy danced the day away!! Here are some pictures to highlight the afternoon!
Rachel before Daddy got to see her all dressed up!!
She is so beautiful!
Rachel wore some of mommy's jewelry and painted her nails red to match her dress, which made her feel even more special! She even picked out Daddy's red tie! Mommy thought they made a great little couple! I think she is the only girl I would let Daddy go on a date with!!!Rachel at the dance!
Rachel and Daddy at the dance. SOOOOO cute!!!
During the last dance (which was a slow dance), Brooks was holding Rachel in his arms swaying her around. Only to finish the song to the sound of snores!! Yes, the poor girl wore herself out!! I think all the anticipation of the big day finally got to her and she just fell sound asleep on his shoulder and then again in the car on the way home. Here she is at the end of her first dance! Sweet girl...
