15 Months Old

My busy little Cooper.  Walking everywhere and getting into everything.  He's always hungry.  He loves grapes and cottage cheese.  Berries, and sometimes bananas.  He likes macaroni and cheese, pizza, and quesadillas.  Loves yogurt.  If you're lucky, he'll eat meatballs and chicken and cubes of cheese but only on certain days.  Most days they'll end up getting thrown across the room.  He used to like broccoli but now will only eat peas (and only frozen ones at that!).

 He loves looking at the Christmas tree.  Loves having me show him all the pieces to the nativity.  He says, "seh-sus" for Jesus and thinks every animal says, "baaa".

 He loves playing on my bed (and has only fallen off once...)

 He has quite an arm and can throw balls across the room.  Unfortunately, he thinks it's really funny to swat at your face.  Yes, he's made my face bleed a few times!  It's hard to help him know it's not nice when he's laughing so hard!  He also still likes to claw at your cuticles!  But his snuggles are the best.

He says:  dada, mama, bapa, bye bye, oh wow, uh oh, baaa, yeah, nana (for banana) and is really really good at pointing at what he wants.  He's also pretty good at shaking his head (over and over and over!)

He weighs 21 pounds, 9 ounces (15th percentile) and is 32 inches (75th percentile).  Tall and skinny like the rest of us, though he's my only kid not off the charts in height.

Cooper makes everyone in this family giggle.  Makes us all happy (even on his grumpy days-which are quite often lately since he still has a double ear infection...boohoo), and I like to pretend he still needs two naps.

Coopey, you're the best!  That's all there is to it!
