Cooper had another great night last night. He slept until 8:10 this morning, waking in a good mood. That mood is always short-lived due to the number of medicines I have to force him to take. At least we get to cuddle afterwards! For some reason he wanted to sleep a lot more than usual today. By 10 he was fighting sleep. I was able to hold him off until 10:30. I had to wake him at 3:00 for his medicine. He played for a while and was in a good mood, but fell asleep again at 5:45. We let him sleep until a little after 6 when dinner was ready.
Cooper always refuses everything I fix, so I've just been giving him things I know he will eat. Yesterday he loved a butterscotch sucker, so for dinner I mixed cool whip (for extra calories) with butterscotch pudding. He ate the entire cup. Then I put some rice with a pineapple sauce over it on his tray. He never did like rice, but tonight he ate several bites of it.
This afternoon he started giving Daddy high-five with his LEFT hand! He is still trying to walk, but hasn't made it more than one step. He did pull himself up by holding onto the door, nothing to grip, today. It seems like each day we find him doing more and more! We still pray every night that God watches over Cooper and continues to help him make a full recovery and many more gains.
Once again, Cooper and Harley always together!
Cooper finally found "HIS" drawer! He used to play in this thing for hours. After discovering it tonight and learning how to pull himself up, he was in Heaven. He pulled everything out, looked at it, then threw it on the floor.
Check out the sneaky grin on that face!
Mommy's Fav of the Day: He looks so old in this picture!
Looks like Cooper has some major house cleaning going on there, cleaning out drawers! He's a stinker and he knows it. It's totally awesome the progress that Cooper is making. Seems to be a little more every day. We sure have an awesome God and He has His arms wrapped around Cooper for sure! Love, Hugs & Prayers
