Cooper's First Birthday!!!!!!

Cooper's first birthday was a big hit. Thanks to Grandma for all the creative ways she used the ducky theme. There were rubber duckies everywhere and they turned out so cute! Not pictured were also ducky shaped ice cream to go with the cake, not easy to make but it was well worth the effort. Cooper was such a good boy and enjoyed every minute of his party, no tears from this happy boy! He is very thankful for all who showed up and all of his nice gifts. What great families and friends little Cooper has!


Cooper's First Birthday!!!!!!

Cooper is now one years old. He has reached some big milestones here lately. He has learned to stand on his own and shortly following he learned to take those first precious steps. May 19th was the big day. Only a week later and he can already walk across the living room and even turn and keep going. On his birthday we noticed that his first tooth had come in. Barely a little white showing through but it was there! No toothless baby for us anymore(we were getting a little concerned.....). Only a few days later there is that little tooth just sticking right out. It is just amazing how quickly everything seems to be happening. He'll be asking to borrow the car by the end of the week if he keeps up at this pace. Truly my little baby is growing up and it is sad and exciting at the same time. I loved holding him as a little infant but he as a toddler(can it be he is a toddler?????????) he makes me laugh and smile more than I thought ever possible. He is just the sweetest natured little guy, and I couldn't ask for any better of a son. We are so proud of our big boy!

Michigan 1st Birthday!

Thank you Michigan family! The cupcake was great practice for the cake on his actual birthday. Although we were there for a sad occasion, the family had a special moment for little Cooper's birthday.














Cooper's First Airplane Ride

Cooper was an angel on the flight. He didn't cry any and as we were starting the landing process he fell to sleep.

Those crazy grandparents!

Cooper loves when Paw and Grandma come. Paw always plays peekaboo and Grandma...who knows what kind of fun Grandma will bring!





Precious Angel!

Look how big and cute he has gotten! This is the first time he happily got in the grass. I think he just didn't realize what he was doing at first but he really seemed to warm up to it. I guess it's true that practice makes perfect.














Daddy's Birthday!

Cooper helped Daddy water his garden for his birthday. What a sweet boy!
