Cooper's 2nd Birthday

This past Saturday, Cooper turned 2!  I still can't believe I have a 2 year old.  He is getting more and more fun each day and says new words all the time.  I really am loving this age.   For Cooper's 1st birthday, we had a big family birthday party and it was really fun, but also a lot of work.  We decided awhile back that we weren't going to have a big party this year since he really had no idea it was his birthday and we wanted things to be as stress free as possible with Justin finishing grad school and a baby on the way.  Of course, we still spent the day celebrating and it was such a great day!

We started out going to breakfast at our favorite little place by our house for some yummy pumpkin pecan pancakes, which is Cooper's favorite.

We actually went to the same place for Cooper's 1st Birthday too.

He really has grown up so much in a year.  After breakfast we came home and gave him one of his gifts, which was a toy lawn mower.  Cooper is always fascinated whenever Justin mows the lawn and just watches him the whole time.  He LOVED his mower and played with it all morning it seemed. 

Then after his nap, we went to my parents house for a small birthday celebration with my parents, brother and nephew.  Cooper LOVES going to my parents and playing with Peyton.  My mom was so sweet and decorated the table for Cooper and made him a cake.  We decided to do a train theme, since that is his favorite things right now.  What little boy doesn't love trains??

Cooper had a blast playing with Peyton and also got to open up a few birthday gifts from everyone.  He got more trains, balls, a truck, and a tool set!

Cooper loves football!  He will throw the ball to Justin and then tackle him on the floor.  

We then had pizza for dinner which is one of Cooper's favorite foods right now.

We then sang Happy birthday and had some yummy Texas Chocolate Sheet Cake that my mom made. It was such a cute cake and tasted SO good!

It was so cute how he blew out the candle himself.  He still really didn't know what was going on, but it was a very fun day celebrating Cooper!  I love this sweet boy so much and am incredibly thankful to be his Mommy.

Happy 2nd Birthday Coop!
