Ryan and I cannot believe that we have a 1 year old. Looking back at this year we both have no regrets but we can only say that it has been the best year of our life. Cooper has brought so much joy, happiness and more laughter then we could have imagined into our lives. I have learned so much about selfless love, compassion, patience, and to sleep when needed. God has given me this amazing time to be with Cooper at home as well and I am so thankful.
To our Cooper James, we hope you had a great birthday and even though we want to freeze time and enjoy every moment with you we also can't wait for the next year ahead. We are excited to watch you grow, learn and take off (once this little guy starts to fully walk we are in trouble). You are so curious, always wanting to know what is going on around you but also so sweet and caring for others especially for your doggy. Words cannot describe how much we Love you and so blessed by you everyday. Thank you for being our little boy.
He woke up on his birthday happy as can be. I made him pancakes and he ate them off our "you are special plate" (a new tradition for our family). We spent the day playing as normal & getting stuff ready for his big party. Later for dinner we had just our families over for pizza and of course an ice cream cake. Ryan and I both love ice cream cake and it will forever be a family tradition in this household. He really didnt care for the ice cream that much probably cause it was so cold. We only gave him a little bit since the big cake would be at the party.
