Tub Time

Video of Cooper in the tub at 3 months. Just a glimpse of our day with him. He is hilarious in the tub. Loves the water. More to come of Cohen too.

Sorry its long but he really gets splashing towards the end.

My Loves

You can see this better on my photography blog by click HERE. The photos above were taken of Cohen on the left at exactly three months and Cooper on the right at exactly 3 months. Yes, Cohen is much smaller. He weighed just under 11.5 pounds at three months and Cooper, well we go Tuesday for a check up but at 2 months we weighed 12 pounds so I am sure he is about 13 or 14 pounds now. I am not sure if you all know this but when Cohen was first born he was sick until about 8 months. So he was a bit on the "tiny" side. He did not weigh but 14 pounds at 7 months when we finally figured out what was going on with him. So having Cooper be healthy is a wonderful thing and I will take a healthy happy baby any day. Not that Cohen wasn't happy but he was sick and just never felt great. Once we did get his issues under control Cohen was an entirely new baby and it was a wonderful thing. So anyway, enjoy these pics. The top is of Cooper at exactly 3 months.

Three Months...

We also forgot another birthday. Another grandma's b-day. Gramma Bridge. How could we forget to say happy birthday to this old gal? We talk to her almost everyday on the computer (skype) that is how. She is just accessible so we forget to give her shout outs on the blog. That and she was in town for us to say happy birthday to. Cohen and Coop love you mom and that is what makes my heart skip a beat. I hate that you are far away and that we have to computer hug! I hope when you blew your candles out this year that your wish was that we lived back in Seattle. Happy late birthday. We all love you!


That's right, Cooper is three months old today (well yesterday). I cannot believe he has already been here three months. The time is flying by so much faster with Cooper than it did Cohen. I really want it to slow a little but I guess this is just the pace when you are busy as a family of four.

As Cooper turns three months Jeremy and I have been seriously contemplating changing his name! I know right? We are just having doubts, issues of sorts. Running into A LOT of Coopers, calling Cooper Cohen but never calling Cohen Cooper, having a disconnect to his name. The other day Jeremy asked me to hold this... "this" was Cooper. It took us over three weeks to mail in his birth certificate papers cause we were not sure and now I am thinking we should have gone with our gut then. So we are talking about changing Cooper's name.

How does Tate Michael Beach sound?

That is where we are leaning... Maybe we are just over analyzing it but we just are not sure about Cooper but hell what are Jeremy and I sure about?

Cooper is great by the way. He is strong, a smiley guy, with screeches and giggles to accompany his grins. Still easy going yet giving us some trouble at night but I think its just a phase. He fits in around here.. Like he has always been here. We just love him! Almost rolling over, he Loves his baths with a capital L, and he man farts. Loud man farts. He will kill me someday for that but its true. He finally loves the car (thank god), and he is not a long napper which kills me but he cat naps so I will take what I can get. Between napping he smiles, and then smiles some more. He is the salt to my pepper.

Almost Forgot

Well we didn't forget to wish her a happy birthday on her day over the phone but we did forget to blog about it.

Happy birthday to our one and only Grammie Kate! Her birthday was November 3rd but better late than never right? She never forgets to send a card to the boys with a little bit of money and a cute note written in it each month and Cohen always talks about the basketball court and candy he gets from her house! We love you Kate. Happy late birthday!

Blanket Love

Guess its a Beach boy thing... Cooper already has a blanket!

they came and went...

Well we have been really busy... my mom and sister came into town a week after we returned from Seattle. We loved having their company and I miss them so much. Every time a plane flies overhead Cohen has been screaming out "M's (that is what he calls my sister) and Gramma... Grumpa too!" And then I have to break it to him that they are not on that plane and that they are not coming to his house.

He has loved that people have come to his house. It only took having another baby to make it happen but they have come and he has loved it. They get to pick him up from HIS school, get to play in HIS playroom, sit next to him in HIS car, meet HIS friends, well you get the idea. Its all about him and of course Cooper has loved all the attention and holding.

Here is a snap of my sister with the boys. My sis feels a real connection to Cooper. She thinks it is birth month, and sharing a name (cooper's middle name is after my sister Michaelanne). I think it is because Cooper unlike Cohen actually looks like my side of the family, well my mom's side that is... Foley, Irish! He has brunette/auburn hair and the prettiest blue eyes. His demeanor is simple and calm. He knows exactly what he wants at all time and is very much in control about it. At almost three months he seems like a much older baby. It could be that he is so long... but his personality is that if an older baby and he is routined like one as well. Lucky me I guess.

More pictures to follow... until then enjoy this picture. It sums up the trip for my sister.

Lots of Babies...

Lots of babies for me lately!
