Cooper is 16 months old today!
I don't think Randy and I have laughed as much as we did today. Cooper was in the best mood. He didn't sleep well from 1:00-4:00 a.m., but still woke in a great mood. He occupied himself in the floor while Mommy and Daddy got ready for the day. He actually played for 2 1/2 hours on his own! He wouldn't eat breakfast again today. But did drink his Carnation Instant Breakfast. We left around 11:00 heading out for the day.
Our first stop was Super Cuts. We finally broke down and got Cooper a haircut. We had been debating it for a long time due to him loosing from Chemo, but the back was getting a little out of sorts! He did great. He sat in the chair all by himself. He looks like such a big boy now.
After the hair cut we went to a sports store, but didn't find anything of interest. So, off to the mall we went. We had lunch and then started looking for shoes. Cooper was so tired at this point, he slept through the "trying on" of several different pairs. We struggled finding him some that were wide enough, but he did get two new pairs. We got a pair of tennis shoes and a dress pair for church. We walked around the mall for a while and then had dinner at Olive Garden. Cooper turned down some delicious foods for his vanilla pudding.
When we got back to the hospital we went for a car ride and did a lot of walking in our new shoes. Cooper had his bath and story time, but couldn't finish his milk before wanting in his bed. Once again, we are hoping for a good night. We all three are tired from the busy day, so let's hope Cooper can rest well.

We thought about going to the zoo today, but decided against it since it was muddy out. Cooper had just as much fun at the pet store!
Cooper wants this one!!!

This is a "game" that Cooper just loves - watching the food spin round and round!!!
Mommy's Fav of the Day: Cooper walking to Mommy. He is so happy! We did this several times back and forth.
I wanted to get a picture of Cooper in his new Space PJ's before going to bed. He was so tired, I only got a half-grin out of him.
Beautiful pictures and I'm so happy that you all had such a nice out. Cooper's hair cut looks really nice and he was sitting so good for it. And Cooper does not need a dog, he has one at home that will be so excited to see him and you all. I know Harley misses you all. Prayers for a great night and continuing progress. Love, Hugs & Prayers
