15 Months Old!!!

Cooper's 15 month birthday was the day of McKaid's homecoming. It was a long and tiring day for the poor little nugget but we made it through it.

He fell asleep on his Uncle Kaid during church, (this isn't his homecoming Sunday) the week before his homecoming.

Coop's 15th month appointment went well, he was very interested in everything in the room and explored while I talked with his doctor. Dr. Fulks was very impressed with all of his words, sounds and ability to run; of course Coop got a huge bruise two days before his appointment so he looked like an abused child. The doctor assured me his kids were constantly getting bruises on their heads and that i'm not a bad mom.

Coop loves laying on Nana and snuggling her, seriously, have you seen anything this cute?!

Coop loves bathies and could spend hours in there so i've tried to become a little more creative so every bath is different, more so I don't get as bored while he's in there because he honestly could care less, as long as there's warm water. This is him playing with his colored ice, he calls "brrrrr" he also says this anytime I open the freezer.

We've tried to squeek a few more play days at the park before it starts snowing. He wanted me to keeping bouncing him and was not happy that I stopped for a photo opp, but I couldn't resist.

We try to visit Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa at least once a week; this visit Coop probably ate two cups of raspberries off of their bushes and as you can see thoroughly enjoyed reading in the sunshine.

Coop LOVES shoes, he's always going around the house trying on any shoes he can find, no matter the size.

I've had to start implementing time out because Cooper has started to push limits and see how far he can go, here's an example of what time out looks like at our house. I feel so bad, but I know i've got to do this stuff early so I don't have a little hellian later on.

As you can see, Coop loves to cuddle animals, here he is cuddling my Mom's cat, Poo, who normally doesn't let any kid touch him. He chases our cat and my parents' cat around literally screaming "meoowww meowwww" it's hilarious!
