Easter

We had a great Easter with Blaine's family.

We celebrated on Saturday with a big family dinner and an Easter egg hunt at Blaine's parents house. Cooper loved being outside for the egg hunt he even found two eggs (with Daddy's help of course). After finding eggs we got the horses out and Cooper got to go for a ride, when they got back I reached up to get him down and he started to throw a little fit because he didn't want to get down! So I let him go for another round he loved it and kicked his legs and smiled the whole time he would get mad if the horse stopped and of course he was mad when I got him down. Grandma took everyone for a tractor ride another one of Cooper's favorite things of course. It was a great day and the weather was beautiful!!

this picture is not actually from Easter it is from about a week earlier but it is a picture of Cooper's very first time on a horse!!

The eggs were full of candy so cooper loved shaking them

Walking!!

Thats right, when Dannah was here about three weeks ago she taught Cooper how to walk!! He started out taking about 2-4 steps but yesterday I counted 23!! He still does more crawling but he has gotten to the point where he tries walking first and goes till he falls down. Walking is hitting me hard as a milestone - it means he is not a baby anymore!! They grow too fast!

It is hard to get a video because he gets distracted by the camera, gets so excited he can't keep is balance, or is tired by the time I get it out but here is little video of some of his first attempts.

This is an example of when I waited too long to get the camera out. I will try to get a better one soon.
