I have to say, please ignore me in these videos, I sound kind of silly sometimes, I didn't think I'd be posting these! I had to though, because in the one with Jackson, he smiled! He's been smiling some, not a ton yet, so I was so happy to catch it on video. He has also started to make some cute little cooing noises but I didn't get much on video this time. We're doing great here at home, Jackson has been doing a good job sleeping at night (usually only up once) so that has been very helpful. We actually went to the grocery store for the first time (me, Jackson and Cooper) and it went well! I only had to get milk so I was in the store for a total of 5 minutes, but still, it's something! :)
Then the video of Cooper I had to post because it has yet another injury in it. I do have a few pictures of his injury but it's on a new camera that I don't know how to download yet, hopefully I'll figure that out soon. Anyway, on Fri we put Cooper to bed and probably 30 seconds later I hear a BIG boom and he starts crying really hard. I run in there and realize he has a gash on his forehead that's bleeding quite a bit. Of course Jackson is screaming too because I was just about to feed him. Cooper told me he was climbing up on his bookcase to get a book on top of it. It has a bench part on the bookcase so apparently he was standing on that and fell off. How he hit his head I don't know. I knew he'd need some sort of stitches or something but we didn't want to bring Jackson to the ped urgent care since it's so flu infested right now, so my very sweet sister met us at the dr. to take Jackson home for us. SO nice since they were moving the next day and she had lots of work to do! Cooper ended up getting his two cuts glued shut, and now we'll have a big cut in every picture for months! :)
(By the way, I had him sing a song so I knew I could get a good video of his face. He's singing the two verses of Jack and Jill in case you can't understand the second verse. I didn't even know there was a second verse until I read it in one of our night-time books!)
He did a great job at the dr. and it really didn't hurt him too much. Which actually isn't good because I don't know if he really learned his lesson. When he's doing something potentially dangerous (Climbing on something, etc..) I'll say, "remember what happened when you were climbing on the bookcase, you fell and had to get stiches, do you want that to happen again?" He'll now say "Yes, I want go to Dr. I want itches." (so funny how kids talk!) AHH, I want him to NOT want to go to the dr. Oh well.

Okay I am not seeing the second video, but the first one is way too cute! He is just adorable.
Congrats on your first trip to the store, 5 minutes counts because sometimes that is the hardest!
I have been waiting to hear the "cut" story! Hope it heals quickly and nicely!! The video of Jackson is really cute - I can't believe he is so old already!!!!

Oh how I wish I could see Jackson before he gets to big. Keep posting videos. I love the cooing.

What an adventure!! I guess I'm behind on my blog reading but I see now that Jackson is smiling!! What a handsome boy!! Cooper's story is so funny. Gwyn told me that Lana thought that she liked going to the doctor to get shots...until 1 day she realized they weren't really fun at all. Kids have some skewed memories! :) Glad he is doing better now...poor little guy! Looking forward to seeing you all soon.
Poor Cooper - the first major injury when he wasn't with me :) He handled it so well! Jackson's smile is the CUTEST!! I love the big open mouth!!
