our wind up toy

His name is Cooper. Seriously, this kid is unstoppable these days. Once he wakes from sleep he's wound up and doesn't stop until he hits the bed again. He is a climber. He climbs on anything and everything. Most recently he was found climbing on Grandpa & Grandma's coffee table. Once on top of the table he proceeded to show off his dancing skills.

He LOVES balls! He is obsessed. He is constantly carrying around a ball. Any shape. Any size. Any sport. Doesn't matter. He loves throwing the ball and has quite the little arm. He also loves shooting hoops. He has a pretty nice shot for a 1-year-old. The only downside to this obsession and his amazing skills is that Payton & Parker have taken a few golf balls to the head...ouch!
This kid also loves to eat. He out eats his brothers every single day. I'm amazed at how much this little guy can pack away, but he definitely needs the fuel for the crazy amounts of energy he's putting out!
He is an explorer. He loves to be outside. He loves to play with water. He loves to be messy and dirty. He loves being a BOY!
He can also throw a fairly good tantrum, especially when his Mommy is ignoring him and not picking him up.
Our little Cooper is still the sweetest little baby, but he is a lot of work these days. He keeps us on our toes all day long. We're never sure what adventure he's going to take us on, but we love it (most of the time)!

He's just so cute Britt! I love all of your summer pics too. It's been a while since I've checked blogs, and it's fun to see how you've been spending the summer!

He's so cute. I love busy babies. They're so funny.

You always make birthdays look like so much fun. Those cupcakes look amazing.

Man for a second there it sounded like you were describing my Parker. Got to love this age. Cooper is so dang cute and I still can't get over how cute that picture of him is sitting in the little chair on the beach!
