Cooper is 8 weeks old today. His personality shows more and more and I'm afraid we have another Garrett on our hands. He was being really vocal last night, cooing and "talking" to Keith when he got home from work. Keith looked at me and said "Great, we have another talker on our hands. We're both gonna be deaf before these boys are grown." Garrett is quite the chatterbox. Poor Keith. Between me, Garrett, and now Cooper, maybe, he's just going to do a lot of nodding and tuning us out.
With Cooper getting older and changing looks, we've been debating over who he looks like. We don't really think he looks much like Garrett, though the following pictures may say otherwise.
Can you tell who is who? You've got to love the pictures of them screaming. At least it shows a bit of the reality that goes on in our house.
I also found this picture of me as a baby to compare with a picture of Cooper. I think he might resemble me a little.
A Garrett story: He has taken to saying "I'm gonna tell God." Not in a tattle tale sort of way, just in a way that he wants to have a convo with God. This is always after his bedtime prayers, so I guess he feels his mumbled prayer isn't cutting it and he needs to tell God other things. Mostly listing all the things God made. Like rainbows. And Spiderman.

Lydia, I can only imagine how hard it was going back to work and taking Garret to a day care. I'm SO happy I don't have to do that. I feel so comfortable and secure leaving Brooklyn with my parents. I also like the fact that if she gets sick, I won't have to stay home every single time since you can't take a sick child to a day care. I will feel safe leaving her with my mom who would know more what to do with a sick baby than I would anyways!
I totally think Cooper is taking on your characteristics. I think he looks a lot like your baby picture. He still has some of Keith but definitely more of you than Garret does. He's looking so cute and chubby! I can't wait till Brooklyn is at the sleeping through the night stage! We're having a bad night tonight and my fuse is kind of short. I had to make Waylon take her and deal with the crying because I finally just couldn't handle it anymore...I just keep reminding myself that this will pass and soon she will be a happy baby that sleeps through the night and doesn't fuss constantly.
He definately looks like you! So cute. It's crazy because I remember that picture of you. Maybe from your house or maybe mom and dad had it ....too funny!
Keith's comment is hilarious about going deaf! That must be why so many old people are hard of hearing... it's all the noise their kids and grandkids made!!! Those pics are too cute, and yes, he does look like you! Garrett's hilarious with his talking to God thing. Hey, that's what we want him to do!
