Update: Cooper @ 18 months!

No pictures this go around. Not because I don't have 100 to post but because I can't find what box I put the cable in. Wait....box. Yes, that's right. We moved into our house 2 weeks ago and are LOVING it! We have already started fun little traditions. First, Cooper is responsible for closing the garage door. He starts shouting "button" as soon as we pull in the garage because he knows he gets to close it. Second, we have a very long and spacious hallway that leads into our house. We have races, we throw balls, we pretty much can do just about anything in this hallway. I have already started to envision Cooper (and future siblings) playing soccer, bowling, and racing down the hallway. We are pretty much moved in and have unpacked most of the house too. I hope to post some pictures eventually.
Now back to Cooper...

- I can no longer keep up with his words. He says anything and everything. He current favorites are stinky, hiney, cheese, bat, ball, side=outside or slide, car, button, apple, and bone=phone. He is so much fun because of all of his words.
- He loves the new house. He goes straight to the back door and into the backyard before I have time to set our stuff down. He has become a much happier kid in the evening now that we have so much space and a backyard. We went to the apartment today to clean up a few things and he cried when we got up to the top and started saying "down."
-He LOVES water. I know I said this last time but it is probably his favorite thing. His new favorite game is to get the water hose and water the grass and then spray himself in the face. Makes for a nice clean up after dinner and the grass doesn't seem to mind the water.
-His best friend is "Bre Bre" or Braeden. He asks and talks about Braeden at leas 10 times a day. Every time he sees a garage door with a dark handle (including ours) he says "Bre Bre."
-He eats whole apples. His new favorite fruit is blackberries.
-He can kick and throw a ball with no problem and is working on the idea of batting.
- He knows the color red. He can sign the color blue but can't pick it out of a line up.
- He still loves airplanes and choo choos.
- He has started liking hot wheels.
- It's looking like he is going to be right handed. He pretty consistently throws right handed, eats right handed, and colors right handed. I make him bat left (not on purpose but I bat left so its hard to switch).
- Well, I guess that sums up the big stuff...

Until next time (hopefully with pictures).
