Our Little Man

You hand Cooper his toothbrush or he sees it and he wants to brush his teeth. He knows just want to do. We also gave him a haircut. He's our little man.

• Cooper is saying so many words I can't remember them all! Some knew ones are keys, cheese, please (pls), bubbles, glasses, mommy, water (wawa), bottle (baba), amen, gma, and gpa. He tries to say airplane and outside. He gets a few letter sounds!
• He has had three teeth come through in the last week or two. 
• He woke up with croup two weeks ago. Scared mom and dad to death.
• He loves airplanes. He points at the sky when he hears them, sees them, or hears the word airplane. He even kinds of says airplanes.
• We're trying to get him off the bottle and on to sippy cups. Dad's a softy and gives him a bottle all the time still!
• He loves to be outside! Nothing new! He even says "outside." Sounds a little funny though. We know what he's saying though.
• He has figured out the water dispenser on the fridge. We often find a puddle of water on the floor.
• He is doing great sleeping in his toddler bed.
• He knows where his hands, feet, toes, tongue, eyes, ears, nose, head/hair, belly, and shirt are. He also knows shoes. We can name many things and he will get them.
• He loves to throw his diapers away and put his dirty clothes in the hamper.
• Ball is probably his favorite word to say right now. He says it all the time!
• He's in the stage where he likes to hit and thinks it's funny. We're trying to change that.
• He is a noisemaker like his dad--- something I picked up myself not long after marrying him. He says "pst pst" when acting like he is spraying something. He does it for the hose when he wants it on saying "psh." He makes a lot of sounds copying us!
• He bows his head and sits quietly to say prayer. He is starting to fold his arms. He peeks at us, like we do him!
• He still loves books! His new thing is to sit in the rocking chair and flip through the books on his own. We've also been to the library twice.

We love seeing him learn new things! It's amazing how much he knows!
