The things he says

Since this is my diary I want to take a few minutes to post about the things Cooper is saying and doing right now. He is almost 21 month old...where did time go? It is so hard to believe he is almost 2 years old. He fills my heart with joy like I have never felt before. He completes my life. He lights up the world with his smile, dimples and blue eyes. He is a gift that I am blessed beyond measure to call my child.
He is talking like crazy and doing the funniest things.
What he says:
Momma, Daddy, Pooper (Cooper), Nana, PawPaw, Pappa, MeMe, Ram (Grams), Mawyee (Molly), Yack (Jack), milk, juice, peas (please), use me (excuse me), dog, cow, orse (horse), ball, cookie, Melmo (Elmo), nite-nite, blanket, yappy (happy), school, outside, bike, wim (swim), water, cracker, chicken, cheese, bayball (baseball), roccer (soccer), iaper (diaper), potty, poop, yummy, more, play, up, off, down, shhh, bed, bath, shower, paper, color, book, TV, dance, jump, silly, hair, brush, teeth, yes, no, yeah, towel, hat, head, ear, eye, mouth, foot, tummy, water, and lots of other words.
He is starting to put sentences together. He loves to take a bath and wash himself. He loves to play in the water. He is starting to learn shapes and colors at school. he knows his body parts. I love his school and he has learned so much. He gets to do gymnastics, splash day, Spanish, music day and so many other things. I was not ready to him in daycare when we did, but due to the circumstances we did not have choice. Once again God knew and it was the exact right time to put Cooper in daycare.
He is a gentle little guy, he does not like it when other kids are hurt and he wants everyone to laugh. He has learned to tickle so he tries to tickle everyone. It is so cute. I can see his imagination working all the time. He is curious and has no fear. He is a pretty good eater. The only fruit he will eat is a banana, but he likes the fruit flavors. He loves yogurt, he eats one almost every single day for his dessert. He loves chicken, mash potatoes, french fries, mac and cheese, cheese, crackers, ketchup, bacon, refried beans, rice, bread, cookies, cereal bars, suckers, cheerios, cheezits, ham, turkey, ice cream, milk, juice, water, bananas, and many other foods. He is curious about food and will ask for a bite.
He loves to be outside and play. He loves to slide and he is becoming interested in swinging. He is a happy little guy. He wakes up happy and ready to face the day.
He is wearing a size 5 diaper. He is interested in the potty so we bought him one that he likes to sit on, we aren't full on potty training. He tells us when he has gone poopy. One day we were eating at a restaurant and he announced to the entire place that he pooped. We are working with him on his inside voice. We remind him how much we love his excitement and zest for life but he needs to use his inside voice.
I guess that is enough for now. I hope you all have a happy and safe 4th of July!
