Cooper is our little monkey through and through (and this is coming from parents who thought Carson was wild). So you can imagine how our time is spent and how exhausted we are at the end of each day. If I had to pick a couple words to categorize this past month for Cooper it would be bumps and bruises! The kid is a klutz... and also is a little brother and he currently has a uni-brow bruise going on. But aside from his craziness he is still a little cuddler, still loves hugs, running to you when you come in the house, and sitting in your lap while he looks at books (but won't let you read a complete one).
He's starting to communicate with us more and more each day and I feel he has more words than Carson did at this age. Some new things he's picked up are recognizing (and saying) football and basketball, Bob (for Bob the Builder), book, coo coo (choo choo) for train, bubba (bubble), cheese (for taking pictures) and bye bye (with the wave). Things he's loving right now are trains, musical instruments he got for Christmas, dancing to music, and basketball. We went to a K-State game this past month and he had so much fun! He also loves anything with wheels that can be pushed (or whatever Carson has) and of course his milk. I think the kid would survive off milk alone if he had his way. He is a total monkey-see-monkey-do with Carson too which is oh so fun for mom and dad.
Cooper is my mini-me and a tiny thing compared to his big brother. 18 month shirts fit comfortably and he's moving in to 2T but he's still in 9-12 month pants (with the waist as small as it can be). He wears size 4 shoe (for comparison Carson was in 4/5 shoes at 9 months, lol) and tipped the scale at 21lbs (15%) but was 50% for height. He might be small, but he's got a big personality!
