Oh vey! It is getting harder to capture his monthly picture because Cooper won't sit still...no less with a smile and eyes at the camera. We had to take many photos and still I don't think we got the "perfect" shot....oh well! C'est la vie.
Anyways, I can't believe my baby is now 10 months old and as I belatedly write this post, he will be 11 months in 12 days. Where does the time go and why does it have to fly by? Nonetheless, it has been just delightful. I heart my baby boy and can't imagine life without him. He brings great joy and fun to our lives. We were blessed with the most loving, happy and precious boy.
Cooper is now standing without support for more than a few seconds. He has even taken 2 steps by himself. But I think he likes to crawl because it's faster. I believe he'll be walking in a couple of months, though I'm not in a rush! I get exhausted chasing after him crawling. And I bet he'll get into more stuff when he's more mobile.
Oh what else has he been up to? He likes to shake his head 'no' and nod 'yes'. Loves to wave and say 'hi', but most of all, loves loves to point. And just not point, but simultaneously raise his shoulder and tilt his head down. He loves to clap, but mostly likes to do that with Lolo. Cooper also has learned to climb up steps. And much to the chagrin of mommy, his favorite word is 'dada'. He occasionally says 'mum', but likes to call everything and everyone 'dada'. Oh and his favorite book is 'Brown Bear Brown Bear'. He especially loves the black sheep and smiles when the page is turned to the black sheep. Though now he likes to point at all the animals when you turn the page.
I am in the midst of planning his one year birthday party. I have started making the invitations and hope to get them out by this week. It will be a small affair with mostly family, but will most likely invite a few friends as well.
Anyways, all is well and I just can't believe it's almost summer. But I am ready for some warm and sunny days!!
Happy Mother's Day :)
