23 Months Old

This is the last time I have to keep track of how old Cooper is in months.  In one month from today, he'll be 2!!  I can hardly believe it.  I've had such a fun time doing his monthly photo shoots.  And I can't believe it's really been 23 months since Cooper came into my life.

Cooper still loves seeing BIIIIIIG trucks driving on the road.  Nothing is more exciting than driving by a big truck.  "WOAH!!!! BIIIIIIG CAR!!!!"  He shouts it as if there is nothing truly better in all the world (and he shouts that EVERY time we see a dump truck or semi or anything remotely big).  Nothing is better than that, except maybe garbage day.  And daddy coming home from work!
 My favorite things he says lately are plurals.  He is very deliberate with his "s"s.  He doesn't say, "balls" he says, "ball. . .ssss"  and "rock. . .ssss"  and "block. . .ssss".  It's very cute.  He talks so much now that often he is saying something that sounds familiar to me, but I can't remember what it means.  He gets really frustrated until I can pull it out of my memory.
 The cutest thing happened today while we were at the Mall play land.  He climbed up to the top of a slide where another little boy was sitting with no real intention to slide down.  Cooper thought for a moment and then climbed over the boy to put himself in front at the top of the slide.  Then, before sliding down, he looked at the boy and said, "thank you".  It made me giggle.
I love my Cooper.  I'm so glad he's my buddy all day.  This morning while I was taking these pictures, I said, "you look cute today" and he spent the rest of the time I was snapping photos saying, "cute today, cute today!"  He makes me happy every single day.
