Cooper is 10 months!




In his 9th month he"
-Got tubes in his ears! We are hoping that his cures his ear infections and helps him start sleeping again!

-He was still waking up a few times a night but this has decreased since the tubes are in. Now that we know he's not in pain we are about to start trying to break this again.

-He lost his appetite for about a week and a half after getting his tubes. I'm not sure if it was related or just coincidence. He wouldn't and still won't eat any baby food. He would eat very little table food. This has since changed and he's eating again but only table food. I have a freezer half full of baby food.

-We added: meat sticks, whole peas (not baby food peas), cooked carrots, cut green beans (He loves to hold these and eat them. He eats them like french fries) & cheese.
-He's had a few bad things too only because I hadn't packed food for him because I didn't know we were eating out. He's had french fries and cheese pizza sticks. He loved them both :)

-He found his man parts

-He can stand from the sitting position. He doesn't need anything to pull up on.

-He has taken a step several times but he immediately falls. He can walk if you hold his hand. You only have to hold one hand so I'm sure it's coming soon.

-He LOVES to swim. We've been a few times and he has a blast!

-He LOVES the bath. He is crazy in there. Every night when he gets out his eyes are so red from all the water he's splashed into them.

-Still loves to make clicking sounds with his tongue!

-He's a screamer. If he wants something he screams. We need to teach this boy sign language SOON.

-He's become REALLY attached to me. I love it and hate it.

He is growing up so fast on us! I can't believe we are about to celebrate his 1st birthday! We are enjoying spending our summer at home with both kiddos. Like everything else, it's going by so fast. We only have 3 weeks left with Trent until football starts again. We're trying to enjoy every minute of these last few weeks.

I just love you and can't wait to see you.
