Cooper Turns 20 Months!

IMG_2071

My oh my – our little peanut is 20 months old today!   And he’s doing so many new things.  Suddenly he’s starting to say many words, and even sing some songs – he can do his ABC’s and Twinkle Twinke and help with some others.   He’s catching on to some jokes, and trying to do lots of new things himself.   He’s really changing and growing, and even though he’s still our little baby, we can’t believe he’s 20 months old today!

Loving his books --maybe he’ll grow up to be a writer like mommy!

Pulling his letter wagon – this is fun!

Loves watching all about music… I think getting him a toddler guitar may be next on the list!

He loves playing with little figurines.  This is a set that grandma passed down to him.

One of Cooper’s favorite new things to do is try to put hats on himself.   He’s interested in hats and shoes, but hasn’t tried his coat yet.
