Our cute little guy is 2! Anyone who knows Cooper knows that he is obsessed with airplanes. So for the last few weeks he has been asking about his "airplane birthday." Since there are 2 other cousins his age that turn two before him he had this birthday thing down. We decided to take him to Hill Aerospace Museum in Roy in the afternoon. Lily and Holly joined us as well as Grandma Sheila and "Lelle". Cooper was in heaven. They even had a little space for the kids to play and dress up as you can see Melia landed on the moon! And there is Lily saluting and Holly flying off in their own airplane. Cooper tried on a pilot jacket and we couldn't resist buying him one because he looked so stinkin' cute!
Later that evening we had our families over to have cake and ice cream and play in the back yard. My friend Angie of course made the cutest airplane cake ever. We showed it to Cooper in the morning and he kept saying "Eat my airplane" all day long. He blew out his candles three times during us singing to him. He was so excited to get a train table from Vanorden's and my parents found him a rocket, plus many many more presents! He is so loved, thanks everyone!
We are so happy to have Cooper in our family. We love him so much! He is very much a little boy loving anything that moves and is full of energy! He is also so loving, lately he's been singing "Happy Family" and giving great hugs and kisses. His hugs melt my heart. He loves to "Ockabye" before bed and is a great cuddle buddy. You can always finding him chasing his sister "Mela" and loves to pretend to be a monster and scare anyone. He is great at tackling his Daddy and loves to ride on the motorcycle with him. I can't believe my baby is so big! Happy Birthday Cooper Clyde VanOrden!
