Happy Birthday Cooper Zain!

I can't believe my baby Cooper is 2! Where has the time gone? Kids grow up way too fast. We had his birthday party tonight and his birthday was yesterday. Trevin insists that Cooper is 3 now because he got two days of birthday. Poor thing, he just won't believe us! Here is the birthday boy! My sister and I worked together to make his shirt. Thanks Aunt Bri Bri!

His cake....okay so I'm definitely not a baker. I had such a cute cake in mind to make him. Of course I didn't make a practice go at it. So today about 5 hours before the party I got to work. All was well until I added the 4th layer. Then all went downhill. It caved in on me. So as you're looking at his not so cute cake, please ignore the grand canyon in the middle of it and imagine that it's a nice smooth square that has all perfect sides. (My hubby insisted that I order a cake when he saw it. Such a support system! Ha!)

Bubble sticks for the munchkin friends.

Table decorations

Doesn't he look thrilled?! He was ticked that we made him stand behind his cake for a picture.

Presents, presents, and more presents.

All the munchkin friends and cousins.

Aunt Kimmie taking baby Daeton's paci away from Ryder after Ryder jerked it out of baby Daeton's mouth. Can you tell which one has older brothers?

Cooper, Mommy and Daddy love you so much! We are so proud to be your parents and so blessed that we were able to see you grow another year older.

New Use For Duct Tape

Cooper has a bad habit of taking his diaper off during bedtime. You can imagine the mess! So the other night my hubby tells me that he's solved the problem. Out comes Coop wearing this! Needless to say, we no longer have a problem with him taking his diaper off!

P.T.I.P

Potty Training In Progress

Potty training is in progress at the Plunkett house! Cooper has been acting very interested in it so we're hitting it hard! He has been wearing big boy undies when we're at home, and he went pee pee in the potty for the first time last Saturday! Yay for Cooper! And YAY for less diapers to buy!

He finally said it!

I have been working with Cooper for MONTHS trying to get him to say "Love You". Well, today, he busted out and said it. Of course it was to me! He says "O, U" and then puckers out his lips to give you a kiss. It's so darn cute!
