Month #10


I'm just a little slow on getting this month's update in.  We've been busy beavers around here! 





Halloween was so much fun with Cooper this year.  We dressed Cooper up as a Lion, while Dave and I dressed as a Wardrobe and a Witch, so we made up the C.S. Lewis book, the Chronicles of Narnia.  We went to a few places trick or treating, and then hit the Huntsville Lions Club costume contest, where little man got third place.  He won a silver dollar! 



He's got two bottom center teeth now that are fully in, and he LOVES to use them to bite!  He gets an ornery look on his face right before he chomps down, so we have to watch for that.  We are still having some issues with Cooper not being able to eat much meat.  Chicken and turkey still make him really sick when we try it every other week or so.  The doc said to keep trying it though, and someday it would probably stay down.  He seems to be able to eat ground beef ok though and boy, does he love spaghetti!  He still eats his veggies and fruit really well, and we've added in toasted cheese sandwiches, pasta, bagel bits with cream cheese, rice, and he likes to share soup with us.  If we're eating something, he definitely wants to have a taste.  Oh, and he loves tofu, of all things! 

Cooper is becoming a bit of a parrot these days.  He has a whole list of "words" he says on a semi-regular basis.  Some of them are ma-ma, da-da, ba-ba (bottle), go-go (leave), uh-oh, oooh, yah, ga-ga/gugga (depending on the grandma), pa-pa (for his grandpa's) and in the last couple days he learned the dog's name and now goes over to our back window and yells at him, BO!!  BO!!  BO!  BO! BO!

He loves crazy noises and anything that makes noise or music.  He heads straight for the noisy/musical toys every time. We don't know why he would be so into music! It's not Dave or I like music! Ha ha.  Oh and he's also started dancing to music when he hears it.  He shakes his little tail and bobs his head.  It's so cute!  He's still crawling and cruising around things, but not taking any independent steps.  He gets mad when he wants to walk with our help and we keep letting go to see if he'll take a step on his own.
