My little Jeffie,
You have started crying yourself to sleep. It tore me apart the first couple times but now that I've seen that you fall asleep really quite quickly (about 5 minutes) and you sleep more soundly than when I rock you to sleep- I realize its got a lot of benefits.
At 3 months you started standing. You staighten you body and stand straight up looking around like "what's going on?!". Eventually your neck and legs get tired and flop like a little rag doll but you are getting so strong!
Yesterday (3 1/2 months) you rolled over! I was working on my YW lesson and Meriden was asleep so you were lying on the floor on a blanket and you rolled to your side- which you've done a lot lately and then all of a sudden you were on your tummy! You are so strong!
Dad gave you your baby blessing 2 weeks ago -June 30, 2013.
Prayer circle: Doug Oldham, Josh Rittmanic, Jeff Cooper, Jeremy Cooper, Thane Kennedy, Jeremy Meldrum, Tanner Carver
Jeffrey Jeremy Cooper by the power of the Holy Melchezideck Priesthood we come together to give you a name. The name by which you will be known on the records of the church will be Jeffrey Jeremy Cooper. At this time we'd like to give you this blessing. We bless you to be a great example to those around you and to be a strong bearer of the priesthood. You will serve your family and all those around you. We bless you to be a great missionary through out your life and to always share the gospel with those you meet and share your testimony and love. We bless you to stay close to the spirit that it will guide and direct you.Come close to the Savior and rely on Him. Use the atonement in your life. Your Heavenly Father loves and cares about you very much. We love you. Know that you are loved. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
It was a beautiful blessing. We did it in the Relief Society room at 4pm at Grandpa and Grandma Cooper's building after their ward. For sacrament meeting Harrison Oldham gave his homecoming talk. The Scarbers and Gunsons were there and the Meldrums, Tanner Carvers, Doug and Melissa Oldham and Josh and Megan Rittmanic. On the phone I had a row of 12-13 year olds with a cell phone with Grandpa Burk, Uncle Theron, Uncle Mark, Aunt Jeni and Aunt Jessica and Aunt Rashelle. It was a little chaotic for Mommy but everything turned out great. Afterwards we had chicken haystacks at Grandpa and Grandma Cooper's house and visited. Uncle Thane and Aunt Chelsea announced that they're expecting another baby! And that was cool because at Melody's blessing dinner we had announced that we were pregnant with Meriden.
I love you sweet baby boy. Thank you for making my life so meaningful and sweet.
Love,
Mom
