19 months... already?!?

I just can't believe my baby is 19 months old...  Time flies!!!  I enjoy everyday with him and watching how much he grows and learns each day.

Highlights:  On May 31 he put two words together, handed me his cup and said "more juice",  June 10 started using the word "mine" for everything, June 13 pointed to his finger and said "boo boo".

Cooper's Growing like a weed (a very slow growing weed, lol):
  • Weighs 24 lbs
  • 30 inches tall
  • In size 4 diapers
  • Size 3-4 shoe
  • 18-24 month clothes

His favorite things to do:
  • He still loves to get his grove on.... dance, dance, dance!
  • Climb on everything - couch, chairs, Mommy, etc...
  • Play hide and seek
  • Play I'm going to get you Mommy or Daddy
  • Playing outside
  • and so much more... he is a playing boy!

Eat Eat:
  • That is what Coop says when it is time for him to eat.. "eat eat"
  • Anything and Everything
  • Every once in a while he will not want to eat but most of the time he will eat just about anything Josh and I eat.
  • His favorites are still chicken nuggets - he calls them "Bach Bach"
  • French fries
  • BBQ
  • Fruit, fruit snacks

Talking:
It just seemed like Cooper was saying two words now he is trying to repeat everything he hears.
  • His two favorite words are Hot and Mine
  • He can say all of the grandparents names - MeMaw, Poppa, Nana, Pawpaw, MeMaw, Poppy, Nana - the only one he can't say yet is Granddaddy. 
Behavior and Discipline
  • Cooper  is still trying to be Mr. Independent.  One of the hardest things we have tried to do so far is take the pacifier away from him.  We are only giving it to him at night and at nap time.  So far he has done pretty with without it.  I'm just hoping that taking it away at night won't be to hard on him or us.  Besides that he is doing pretty well.  He does try to test Mommy to see what he can get away with. 

Sleep:
  • All through the night - most nights... here lately he has been waking up crying.  Cutting more teeth!
  • Goes to bed between 7-8 p.m.
  • Takes one 1 1/2 hour nap a day.
