Top 12 Things You Have Missed Since My Last Post (September..oops!)

1. October: Courtney turned 28 years old and Cooper celebrated his very first Halloween as a cute monster.
2. November: Cooper had his first taste of "real" food for Thanksgiving...he ate his entire plate full!
3. December: We celebrated Cooper's first Christmas. Cody, my brother who lives in CA, came home for over a week. He taught Cooper many bad tricks and fed him everything from cookie dough to powdered sugar.
4. January: Cooper turned 1!!!! We had a great monster birthday party with many friends and family there.
5. January: John bought out another dentist in Martinsville. He has doubled his practice and is loving every minute of it. He is working longer hours and some Fridays but has had tremendous responses to taking such a risk.
6. February: Courtney had to have her gallbladder removed. Who knew having a baby would continue to mess me up? (He was totally worth it!)
7. March: Cooper had his first surgery! He had his adenoids removed and tongue clipped. He was moderately tongue tied.
8. March: The day after his Cooper's surgery he decided to walk, who knew adenoids and your frenulum controlled walking...haha.
9. April: Winston (our beloved Pug) turned three!
10. May: Cooper is learning to talk but seems to only communicate in Japanese.
11. May: Courtney is finished with working for the summer!
12. June: John and I celebrate 3 years of marriage. My whole family is going on vacation together to see Cooper's first trip to the beach. My parents and grandparents are driving, John, Coop, and I are flying and Cody is meeting us in Florida from California. Winston will be boarded for the very first time and away from any family for a week. Who need more thinking of , Winston or everyone on the trip? Should be interesting.
Hopefully I can get back on track and continue to blog.
