For all you doubters out there...
To all you doubters out there, my kid really can read. Unfortunately, he has a short attention span; after numerous attempts , this was the best we could get on video. Much like catching Bigfoot or a UFO on tape, catching Cooper reading on video is nearly impossible. Really. I am not making it up. Some day I will have more proof...and someday we will find the Loch Ness monster.

I had to add this one...
Jer got this super cute picture at the birthday party. He looks so sweet and innocent! Well after we came back from Grandma's he got mad at his dad for fencing him in and he was so upset he held his breath, fell over backwards and passed out! It was the scariest thing ever. Apparently 20% kids do this (Brandon did, so don't blame my genes).
Anyway, I guess we're going to have to work on just keeping him happy and see if we can avoid this little trick.

365 Days Later
While there are a billion things I love about being Cooper's mom, here are just a few:
- How you scrunch up your nose and snort when you don't want something
- How you throw yourself on the floor and thow a tantrum when you really want something (this won't be cute in another year I am sure)
- Your two dimples on your left cheek, and how they never are both visible at the same time
- Your chuckle-it is the best sound it the world
- How you try to get away when we play 'I'm gonna get you'
- How you squeal every day to go outside
- Your super kissable spot on your chin; I love that spot
- How you're such a happy easy-going baby
- How you always try to do something after I say 'no' (this also is cute now, but I am sure will get a little old soon:)
- How you clap when anyone says, "yea!"
- How you have the best smile in the world
Most of all, I love the fact that I get to be your mom! If you had any say in the matter, thank for picking me!! I am looking forward to the next 365 days and all of our exciting adventures!!

Brandon's Family Reunion
Luckily, Janie got Cooper a pool, so that cooled down the kids. Cooper liked the pool, but Holden LOVED it. He was a total water baby and loved to spash around.
