11 Months!

Since Cooper turns 1 next week, I figured I should do a quick 11 month update. ;)

Cooper turned 11 months old on June 7th (8 months adjusted) and he's in such a fun stage! At the beginning of the month he weighed about 16.5 pounds, and he's finally on the chart for weight!! 37 percentile. I was absolutely shocked when the nurse told us, because Cooper has barely been on the chart for his adjusted age, let alone for his actual age! So proud of him!

Cooper is very mobile, and does a combination of crawling/scooting to get around. He is starting to pull himself up onto things, and basically nothing is safe from his curiosity. :) His first two bottom teeth have popped through, and Cooper is a good little eater! He loves Cheerios, mangoes, green beans and eggs. Giving him a bottle is still difficult, and he will only take a bottle from Taylor or me. We have to be holding him and walking around while he eats, or he'll refuse the bottle. We're not sure why bottles are so difficult, but hopefully soon he'll learn to drink the bottle on his own or take a sippy cup.

Cooper is a great sleeper, and takes two long naps every day, and then sleeps at least an 8 hour stretch every night! He will only sleep on his stomach.

We love Cooper so much and continue to feel so grateful for the tremendous progress he is making developmentally and health-wise!
