Anji went to get Cooper up from his nap on Saturday and this is what she was greeted with.

So at the risk of getting repetitive like I do every 6 months or so with the webbpage, I'm planning on coming back and making a better attempt to keep things updated with the happenings of the Webb Family.

I've had a really hard time quantifying having a family-esque blog that is PG and posting some of the other stuff that I'd like to post about that family wouldn't really care about and/or be offended by.

SO...this is going to be the warm, fuzzy blog that is family friendly, no cursing, no controversy. Just self important posts about what we do as a family and pictures.

I'm working on getting "my" blog in order and ready to launch, but that one will be kept pretty separate from this one so I can go crazy.

So, let's see how many days I can post in a row. I figure it's time to really dive in since Blogs are kinda passe now. ;)

Thanks to Uncle Clay and Aunt Sara for this amazing bib!

For those of you who don't know - it's a World of Warcraft thing.

Couple bits of fun here:

First, here's Coop playing with his favorite toy. Not only does it make music, but he can use it to stand, so of course that one's a winner. This video is a week or two old, so he is much more unsteady in it than he is now.

Second: this is from tonight. I guess Cooper likes peas now!

...and as a result, we're teaching him the word, No!

Thanks to the twitter era - I'm going to update everyone with short tweet style updates to what's been going on around here lately.

-We bought a new Volvo XC60. It's being custom built so we'll have it in late September.

-Coop is very close to crawling and also very close to having two teeth popping in. At his 6 month appointment, Dr. Tran said that he was very advanced for his age: even more so considering he was technically a preemie.

-We switched from DirecTV to Uverse a week or so ago. As I type this, I'm waiting for the DirecTV guy to come reset up our service because Uverse was terribad.

-If you haven't seen Zach and Miri Make a Porno and you think you might like it - watch it. If you don't think you'd like it, you're probably right.

- Harry Potter 7: The Film was pretty terrible if you are a fan of the books. Pretty good I'd imagine if you're just a movie goer.

-Druit has gotten some sick gear in WoW thanks to my awesome Axiom brethren.

-True Blood is a pretty enjoyable show. Thanks a lot Brooke. (No spoilers, we're just about to start getting caught up on S2 tonight.)

-Cooper's volume to inch ratio is off the charts!

This is my new big boy seat for the tub!

I really can't get over how much cooler this is!

This is so much fun! I love it!

Several minutes have passed, as has copious amounts of cleaning...

Fair warning guys...I'm going to need to get out of here soon!

I'm serious...I'm about to scream if you don't get me out of here!

Parents.....they just don't listen!

Cooper's first shopping cart experience- made easier with his Snazzy Baby Travel Seat and supported by Yoda(s).

Last night, Brooke and Todd watched Cooper while Anji, Dre and I went to see Harry Potter.

My review? Eh, Ugh, Blah.

Thank you and good night.

Cooper and I had the most awesome day on Wednesday. We we both in good moods, didn't cry much and just played like it was going out of style.

He's in a bit of a growth spurt right now and he's sleeping a lot during the day and then playing and eating and repeating the cycle. His personality is really starting to develop and he's stuch a happy, smiling little boy. Definitely a blessing.

Well, the 2nd root canal went off without a hitch. Other than being one of the most unpleasant experiences of my life.

This one was on the top and a molar and it just wasn't great at all. However...I can now drink cold things without wincing.

1 temporary crown to the permanent and then another crown fitting and install and I'm all done for a while!

A word of advice...if you have the means/insurance to go to the dentist. Do it. Don't put it off for 4 years like I did.

In the last two months, I've had about 6 dental visits that included a root canal, crown, 3 cavities, a cleaning etc.

Now...I'm going back this morning for an evaluation with an Endodontic Specialist for what my dentist is certain will be a 2nd root canal.

Good times!

The plus side of it is that I can relax, with some gas and enjoy some silence for an hour...except for that grating drill. ;)

We're dog sitting currently for Todd and Brooke. Here is a picture of Cooper chilling with Kona.

Here are a couple of shots of Luke and Cooper plotting out their plan for World Domination...or playing. You be the judge.

Once again...it's time for a "I've gained too much damned weight and need to lose some of it thread."

We've ordered Nutrisystem and it should be here late this week. Between the pregnancy for Anji, the sympathy eating for me and the eating crap to take short cuts since Coop has been here, we've porked up quite a bit.

That stops. We've both decided and we are committed to a lifestyle change so that we can be in decent shape and give Cooper the kind of fun that he deserves. Getting winded going up the stairs is a bad fit. ;)

I'll let Anji decide if she wants to share her weight and loss with you guys because I value my man parts way too much and would hate to get them kicked in due to really piss poor judgment, but I will tell you that as of this morning I weighed 258 lbs which is down a lb or two from recently - but is more or less the most I've ever weighed.

My goal is to lose 6 lbs in the next month - so wish me luck.

I'm not so sure about this pool thing.

Really? What's the deal with this?

Maybe turtle can tell me what it's all about.

Oh yeah? Okay turtle, maybe I'll try it.

Hmmm, it's a little scary, but it's getting better.

Oh my God! It's full of stars!

Turtle, you never steer me wrong! This is wonderfu!

I love my turtle pool!

I told you so!

Holy shit this kid is in a pissy mood today. He'll have about 5 minutes of happy time followed by 45 minutes of inconsolable crying.

My guess is that teething is imminent, but right now he's up in his room "crying it out" while daddy takes a sanity break - and a qualude. :)

....and WoW! What a day. :)

Is there no end to the tyranny that the gays are willing to spout out in order to have equal rights?

...even if he does have his sports mixed up.

My boy, decked out in his swimming togs.

The Easter Bunny visited Cooper in the night!

Let's see what he (?) left for Cooper....

Cooper just chilling in his Bumbo, wondering what all the excitement is about.

Um, guys? I don't want to alarm you, but I have bears on my feet.

Hey, what's this now?

That looks interesting!

Let's read my duckie book!

Wearing my fly hat, yo!

It's a giant That Caterpillar!

He's so soft!

That Caterpillar is my friend.

From Saturday: I'm tired of playing now, Mommy!

Sweetie Peaty.

From Sarah Palin:

In a speech she gave to the Alaska GOP last week, Palin told the story of the lead-up to her debate with Joe Biden, saying, "So I'm looking around for somebody to pray with, I just need maybe a little help, maybe a little extra. And the McCain campaign, love 'em, you know, they're a lot of people around me, but nobody I could find that I wanted to hold hands with and pray."

Jesus Christ.

Indeed.

Idiot.

Yesterday we took Cooper for his 2 month check up. Everything is looking really good. Developmentally he is on track.

Here are his stats:
Height: 22 3/4 inches - 40%
Weight 11.7 lbs - 42%
Head Circumference - 37 - 9%

So - long story short....our baby isn't fat, isn't short but has a peanut head.

He had a 50/50 shot. Anji's got a tiny little head and daddy has a melon sized head that would make even Donny Osmond go, "Wow - that's a big dome."

He's been running a little fever and been grumpy since the appt because he had 4 of his immunizations yesterday. Nothing we can't handle, but it is sad that he isn't feeling well.

Week One went off without any major drama. Coop and I are learning each others schedule and needs and I actually had a pretty good time. It's stressful as hell and there are times where I want to pull my hair out, but it's worth it in the end.

...at least according to one of the people who read our website (yes the same one that motivated the vague post about hasty actions) - I've decided that I might as well post a picture from tonight's bath where Cooper is sporting what can only be described as Hitler Hair.

In case there are more people that read the site who can't decipher humor, irony or sarcasm - that was a joke. We're not actually grooming our son to look like Hitler.

BTW....just so no one thinks that I only dislike the jews, I'd like to prove that I'm an equal opportunity offender and present Clansman Cooper.

Also - sarcasm.

Anji started back to work yesterday and I had Day 1 of being a stay-at-home-dad (henceforth to be referred to as SAHD on the site).

We survived. We're all still breathing. There are no holes in walls and no soothies got thrown. I have as many Xanax today as I started out with yesterday. All in all I'd say that's a victory.

I'm actually really excited about starting the journey despite being equally terrified. Anji and I both feel extremely fortunate to be in a situation where I can stay home with Cooper and really focus on his development. As I've said many times before - if anyone is going to screw this kid up, it's going to be me - not some 19 year old at the local Daycare Farm.

I'm hoping to be at least semi regular with my postings and completely honest about my perspectives. To be clear - this site will no longer be solely about posting cute pictures of Coop, though I can assure you that will be done too. We're both going to try and start posting anecdotes about how fun, horrible, exciting, terrible, rewarding, taxing and great being parents of a newborn is. However - we're doing it as us. For a long time this site has existed with a filter to protect the sensitivities of friends and family who read it at the expense of us really using it for what we want...a place to express ourselves as us. No filters.

So, I warn everyone who reads the site - there will be profanity, there will be hyperbole, there will be no holds barred, public airing of just about whatever we choose to talk about. If there is any chance that may offend anyone who reads this site, we apologize and suggest that you scroll through all the text and just look for pictures.

And with that...Coop is awake. There goes my poignant moment. ;)

...it's important to remember that hasty actions can result in a hasty counter action.

Live and learn.
