Baby speak

Every morning Coops wakes up happily chatting & we plop him right onto one of our laps to have morning conversations.  We talk to him in his coos & giggles, mimic his facial expressions & use words to keep the talks going.  It's definitely a favorite part of the day for all 3 of us & something I've grown to treasure.

Aside from that we read books, sometimes one a day, or when he's in the mood we'll do up to a half dozen in a couple sit down sessions like today.  It's perfect for quality downtime & gives me a chance to relax after constant running around (#momlife).  And now 12 weeks in Coops will read stories back to me in his own language.  Even pausing for pages to be turned before chatting again.  It's one of the most amazing things I've ever seen.

Another of Coop's top 10 favorite things to do is chat with home fixtures.  It seems whatever room we're in or house we're visiting he'll find lights, ceiling fans or windows & visit with them; often kicking & waving his arms to get closer for a better look.





I can't believe how much Coops absorbs every day, babies are such amazing sponges that we're blessed with the once in a lifetime opportunity to fill with knowledge & fun.  Speaking of fun- what does everyone do for activities in the fall/winter?  Right now we spend so much time outside I can't imagine being without that time for a week let alone the chilly months to come!
