Ok, I say it every month, but really can we freeze time now?! Pretty please! It still amazes me just how much babies grow and change their first year of life. It's fun to see him explore and learn new things. This month he has a real fascination with opening and closing doors and playing on the bed with pillows. He started to try to walk by pushing a walker and other toys around the house. I know that in no time at all he will be running circles around us. (he already kinda does!). Cooper has such a sweet, fun personality and it really was shining this month. His smile is the highlight of our days. He loves giving us hugs now which is also the sweetest thing ever. He said his first word "Mama" (much to daddy's dismay) and just started saying Dada, too. He started to climb the stairs and really is good at it! More baby gates were required asap. He still likes to to try and sneak away to them and he definitely gives a telling look that he knows he is doing something wrong! Sometimes I can't help but laugh when he flashes that face. He's gonna keep me on my toes!

here are some other shots from our photo shoot, really showing that personality!

Loves finger foods and starting spitting purees at us for fun haha favorite food is avocado.

Wears size 12 mo clothes, size 4 diapers.
Babbles all the time, tugs on our leg to be held, loves walks in his wagon, and loves being outside (we knew this from when he was itty bitty, only thing that made him happy with reflux)

I got this presh pic while away to let me know my baby boy was ok without his Mommy! He did great actually thanks to everyone who helped watch him!
Daddy and Coop goofing off. Two peas in a pod! Cooper learned to stick his tongue out (who taught him that?!) and now it's out constantly.
Love you boys!
