Happy 5 Months and counting...Mr. Cooper!

And the Mother of the Year Award goes to...ding ding ding!!  I've been delayed in posting my blessed baby boy's 5 months photos and stats...for oh...half the month!!  But I'm hoping I won't be so late next month...and Cooper will one day find it in his heart to forgive me! I love you bubba!  Sorry these are delayed.

Here's what our little bruiser has been up to the past few weeks:

Weight: 18lbs!!!!!  Momma's arm is done with the carseat carrying!
Diaper size: 3 in dailies and 3 in overnights (yep...we need overnights for our sleeping champ who sleeps almost 11 and 12 hours a night consistently!)
Eye Color: Still Blue!
Starting to push up on his hands
Can roll over all ways - he's a maniac if you lay him on the floor and will roll half way across any room!!
Transferring things from one hand to another
Can put his pacifier in his mouth...ok sometimes it's in backwards or sideways...but even still!!
Stores food in his cheeks for winter...or we think it appears that way anyway!
Sleeping unswaddled - 3 nights in a row so far!!
Drool factory continues from last month stats and according to the doctor...no teeth yet!
Paid a visit to our doctor after a week long cold left him pulling on his ears.  They were perfect...so it was just a fake out!  But he was snotty none the less!
Laughs uncontrollably at being tickled.
Loves to have me pull his bink out of his mouth with my teeth and grab it from me
Eating solid foods...and LOVING it!  He is eating oatmeal and fruit in the morning.  At dinner time he's eating a meat, veggie and another fruit.  So far his favorites are anything with bananas, oatmeal and peas! But let's be serious...the kid LOVES to eat and he's got the perfect chubby rolls to prove it :)
LOVES his Baby Einstein bouncer, doorway bouncer and his puppy dog that sings to him in the pack n play!
Loves putting everything into his mouth...hair, fingers, toys, Owen's foot. It doesn't matter.  If he's got it in his hand it's going in his mouth!

















And yep...still bald as a cue ball!!





**Shout out to Uncle Josh and Aunt Katie for the adorable hat :) It was the perfect January diaper pic addition!!!

Dear Coop,
It's crazy to think that in a few short weeks we'll have had you for almost half a year.  Where does the time go buddy?  You continue to be an absolutely amazing joy for our family.  Your brother doesn't like to go anywhere without you and you seem to adore him just as much as he does you.  I LOVE watching you two together.  Listening to you laugh makes the world stop spinning for a second and I remember how truly blessed I am in this life.
I love your chubby little self to a million pieces sir.  Just like your brother.  And your Dadda.  
Thanks for being adorable happy you and making my life complete!!
Your Momma :)
