The Coastal Coopers: December 2014
http://coastalcoopers.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 28, 2014. Georgia Christmas and 9 months. We had a late morning flight out of Tampa so we grabbed food at Rollin' Oats. See pictures from our trip and C's 9 month picture file here. The next morning we enjoyed a slow morning in our jammies with Grandpa and Grandmama/Susie before we had to get our stuff packed up and in the car. Fortunately, I did manage to get a few nice pictures of C with her grandparents before we left for the airport. C with her Grandpa and Grandmama. And a visit from...

s/v Moosetracks: Martinique to Tabago
http://svmoosetracks.blogspot.com/2015/06/martinique-to-tabago.html
Wednesday, June 3, 2015. We took a walk with Chester and Karen around town while Michael went for a spare part by bus. Amazingly folks seem to react in totally different ways when they see a large dog, either scared to death or needing to pet and cuddle him! It made for a very interesting morning walk and a little fun too. David, Libby and Brody. Admin building for Customs and Immigration. Pirates bay from the trail. Steep steps to the beach. Wonderful soft sand beach. And a beach bar. We hope everyone's...

http://svmoosetracks.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 16, 2014. Well we have been in Grenada almost 3 months and it’s been a fantastic time to be here. The carnival is the 9-12th August and it’s a real party atmosphere around the island with all the flights in/out being fully booked. A beautiful caterpillar on our walk. A photo stop on our walk - thanks Maggie. Break of Day Parade. Lots of people participate fully. The 'loud as it can be' music trucks. Yes Gregg and Devin got plastered in used motor oil. Some of the children in the parade.

The Coastal Coopers: July 2014
http://coastalcoopers.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 31, 2014. Later that weekend we finally took the little lady to the beach for the first time. It was stormy and overcast so at first we weren't sure it was going to work, but then we realized it was good because it kept it form being too bright for the Little Lady. This was also the first time we debuted her sunglasses - they actually fit and she liked them! Unfortunately though, we forgot our good waterproof camera so we only had my iPhone to use for pictures. I tried practicing just abou...

The Coastal Coopers: August 2014
http://coastalcoopers.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 23, 2014. Ah, yes, that's what bottom feels like. I have always been a water baby and love the pool (and C appears to be as well) so I went against the nagging voice of fear ( What if it's a colossal failure and she melts down while we're out? Or "how to change clothes and not let the baby fall over if you can't put her down? Or "how to quickly run out to the car for something you forgot (wallet, stroller, etc) when you're alone but have already dropped all your crap where you are? Ah, y...

The Coastal Coopers: February 2015
http://coastalcoopers.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 21, 2015. 9 years for Team Cooper. For her first visit. We always do an anniversary selfie - this year we had a new participant :). Needless to say, we had to plan for a make up night this weekend since we didn't get to the chocolate fondue we'd also planned. For more pictures from the aquarium and her 10th month antics, including videos of her using her walker and clapping, go to our Picasa site. Tuesday, February 3, 2015. And started her 10 month folder. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Coastal Coopers: November 2014
http://coastalcoopers.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 2, 2014. For the little lady's first Halloween we decided to start a tradition of doing family-themed costumes. And given the fact there were a number of variables involved (hot or cold weather? Crawling or still wallowing? Something she could comfortably wear for the duration of a party? Was the best option, with Wade and I accompanying her as sushi chefs. It felt like a trick for sure, but we were glad her first Halloween turned out to be such a treat. To see more photos, go here.

The Coastal Coopers: April 2015
http://coastalcoopers.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 6, 2015. A beach bunny she will be. Look who loves the sand! One of her Easter presents was a pop-up kiddie pool which was really handy and she loved splashing in it. It was a nice alternative to the big pool which was still just a bit too chilly to get in to and she likes doing things on her own already which gets difficult since we have to hold her in the big pool (that didn't stop her from trying to climb in all weekend! See more photos from her 12 month album here. Janis, Miles, and Sam.

Friday, November 28, 2014. So the following morning we left for St Lucia and Rodney Bay. Raising the Q-Flag in Rodney Bay. The next day we took a local bus to Castries and visited the local markets. On Saturdays there are lots of stalls selling fruits and vegetables as well as fish, meats and souvenirs. We had a very good look at all the stalls and Liz even found several dresses to try on and eventually bought a very nice one. The very good market. Shame about selling Hawksbill Turtle here. They have lot...
