Happy 5th Birthday, Cooper!!!

This is how Cooper is spending his birthday today - poor guy! He was sick with the stomach flu all day on Saturday but was feeling all better on Sunday and even ate pizza. However, this morning he woke up and just laid on the couch with his throw up bowl right close. You know he is sick when you give him a present and he doesn't even want to open it. We hope you get feeling better soon, Cooper, so we can PARTY!!
Cooper is a joy to have in our family. Here are some of his favorites:

• Food - cheese pizza or grilled cheese with Parmesan cheese
• Drink - Sprite
• Breakfast - usually nothing, but sometimes Cheez-Its
• Book - Berenstein Bear books - we must have almost all of them
• TV - Handy Manny & Diego
• Movie - Cars
• Candy - Skittles, chocolate (he's my boy!)
• Restaraunt - "Bazoli's" (Fazoli's) for their breadsticks

Cooper now has his own room but he still likes to sleep with somebody. He goes to Pre-K three days a week and has lots of friends. He still likes to have a story at bedtime and have mommy cuddle with him. When we are ready to go somewhere, he likes to wait in the car after he turns the car on and watches a movie (we are trying to avoid giving him the keys)! He loves to help around the house, whether it's vaccuuming, cleaning or cooking. He loves to give Gateway, our cat, hugs and kisses and tells him, "I wuv you".

We love you, buddy, and hope you feel better soon!
