Cooper as CHUCKY for Halloween!!

So we figured that this will be the last year Cooper lets us pick out his costume for Halloween... so needless to day, we took FULL advantage of that. Cooper was the talk of the neighborhood with his homemade Chucky Doll costume... everyone LOVED it!! He enjoyed handing out candy to the neighbor kids more then trick or treating himself this year- again- most likely the last year for this as well!! Enjoy!!

Cooper Started a New Daycare!!

And he LOVES it!! At the end of September, we decided to take Cooper out of the Daycare Center he was in and place him into an "at home Daycare" that we found through a friend of a friend. The Daycare Center was having some serious management issues and the staff members that we LOVED were all leaving (pretty good clue that things were not going good there). Cooper has been there for almost a month now and he has been a TOTALLY different kid!! He jumps into Janine's (daycare provider) arms when we drop him off and he isn't running out the door when we come pick him up!! The added bonus is that she takes amazing pictures of him while he is playing in her back yard!! Enjoy!!

Cooper's 15 Months Old!

We cannot believe how fast time is flying!! Cooper is getting SOO big... SOO fast!! At his 15 Month Doctor's Appointment he weighed 26 lbs (78th percentile), he was 32 inches tall (72nd percentile), and his head was in the 99th percentile!! Haha... We figured Cooper's head was pretty big when the "kids sized" hats at the store didn't fit him!! Cooper has been pretty healthy (Thanks, God!) and loving life. Enjoy some fun pictures of Cooper playing out on the deck!!

Cooper's Trip to the Pumpkin Patch!!

This weekend we took Cooper to the Pumpkin Patch in Long Grove, IA. Needless to say, Cooper had an amazing time!! Cooper met some goats, road a horse, ate a hot dog, and picked out his favorite pumpkin for us to carve later!! Hope you enjoy the pictures as much as we enjoyed the day!!
