Cooper- 17 Months Old

Just like sand, Cooper wasn't so sure about what to do with the 2 feet of snow we got in a week's time.... Until his Daddy showed him how fun it was to throw it!! Cooper is 18 months old and a complete sponge!! Whatever we say or do, Cooper is right behind us saying and doing the same!! Needless to say, we need to watch what we say and do A LOT MORE now then we ever have before...

Cooper knows several words that he says very clear: Mommy, Daddy, Baby, Doggie, Kitty, and the most popular one lately- Pleeeaaasssee (simply because he doesn't get what he wants without saying it :-). Cooper is literally running all over the place (we are not sure he will every walk again) and LOVES to read books (we do not get a chance to read to him as often because he wants to change the pages quicker then you can even see the words).

Cooper LOVES yogurt (wants it for EVERY meal) and LOVES to take your hand and lead you everywhere he wants to go (usually to the refrigerator- SOO much like his Dad).

Cooper is still obsessed with BALLS... he plays catch and basketball with Mark almost every night... and if Mark isn't around, he plays fetch with the dog, Madison... as in Madison throws the ball up in the air with her mouth for Cooper and he runs to fetch it.

Cooper loves to lift up Tiff's shirt to show her belly and give Baby Hami #2 kisses. We are interested to see how this all plays out because he still loses it if Tiff holds another baby!!

Cooper spends some quality time in "Time-Out" for being naughty... one day he spent so much time there that if we said- "Cooper's going to "Time-Out" then he would walk himself right over there... Haha!!

Overall, this has been the most amazing age yet (we feel like we say that every milestone)... he wakes up each morning with something new on his mind and we cannot wait to figure that out everyday!!

Cooper will be 18 Months soon... 18 Month Appointment is on February 2nd, 2011... Keep you posted!!
