Ah, Cooper. The child who can make me laugh so hard and also has given me my gray hairs...I love this boy so much. He is spunky, determined, silly, and LOUD.
His birthday fell on a Wednesday, which is our busiest day of the week. But we carved out a little time after preschool to go to the Dinosaur Museum. These boys had the whole water/sand table to themselves for probably 20 minutes and we collected all the dinosaurs and lined them all up. It was all fun until Cooper started splashing in the sandy water, then we had to clean up and move on.
Obligatory picture here...every time. :)
Alli had a soccer game and Alex had a basketball game that night, so we had Cooper open his presents the night before. Thanks to Christmas, he's a pro at ripping off that wrapping paper. He loved it.
Cooper is the kid who was sent to me to keep me humble. He's made me rethink all my parenting tactics that have worked on my other kids. He keeps us so busy, and he's everyone's favorite sibling. We all love to sit by Cooper on the couch, and we hope he chooses our lap to sit on, (except for Alex. Cooper has taken to sitting on Alex's lap at every meal. It makes the rest of us laugh but I don't know how much Alex loves it.). My favorite thing is when I say, "Cooper, I love you!" and he says "too!" Melts me every time. Love this kid.
