This Month Cooper:
**Is still working on this wonderfur hair of his. The top of his sweet little head looks and feels just like a peach with brown fuzz. In the back, we're working on a mullet.
**Has transitioned to size 2 diapers. We are a Huggies lovin' family and they run a little smaller than Pampers...so we're movin' on up!
**Doesn't cry much during a day, except around feeding time...and holy moly do we make up for the rest of the quiet throughout a day.
**Speaking of eating, he has begun to eat 4 to 5oz of formula every 2 to 3 hours, except at night when he will stretch for longer periods.
**Continues to be a sleep champ. We had our first full nights sleep last Saturday. This hasn't happened since, but I can say this much, he continues to sleep in nice full blocks at night. His nighttime feeding is peaceful, fast and he goes right back to sleep. So nice!
**Continues to smile...A LOT!! If you talk to him, sing to him or pretty much put your face in front of him and smile...he smiles back. He is almost going to full out giggles if you tickle him and I LOVE it! It just brightens your day every time you hold him!
**Continues to love baths and this special time together.
**Has begun to purposefully grasp and bat at objects he sees
**LOVES the ceiling fan in the living room. I mean...so does his Momma so he comes by it honestly ;)
**Slow dances with his Momma at the end of many days together
**When Owen comes into a room and starts talking and playing, Cooper lights up...I adore this.
**Has grown into most everything of Owen's clothes. He will soon be growing out of the sweat pants and many of the 0 - 3 month onesies we have!
**Went on his first walk-a-thon for charity. Well we ate a bottle in the car because the timing stunk, but we went all the same! This event was also his first event with Jer's company.
**Let his Momma and Dadda go on our first night out with adults only since his birth :)
**Got a visit from my good friend Colette and her son Brennan. We all had such a fun play date together! I loved playing cars with Brennan. Brennan, come back soon and bring your Momma so we can play again soon!
**Got a visit from my good friend Cindy. Cooper smiled a lot for her and we all went to McDonalds for lunch!
**Had a fun Linley family dinner celebrating Grandpa Mike's birthday. We got lots of face time with Isabel...so fun :)
**Is growing like a weed and changing everyday!
Dear Cooper,
Another fun month has come and gone. You continue to make us laugh and smile every single day! I am cherishing every smile and snuggle more than ever as I prepare to leave you a few days a week and go back to work. I can't believe this time in our lives has almost past already! I have loved slow dancing in our living room, your late night baths in the kitchen sink listening to music, snuggling you up for the night, getting you dressed and ready for each and every day, listening to your grunt and stir as you settle in to a sleep and so many more things I can't even put into words. You are growing and changing in so many ways big boy. I never want to forget this time!
Thanks for a wonderful second month. I'm very excited to celebrate the holidays with you and your brother this year. It'll be your first of so many fun times to come!
Love Momma (and Dadda too)
