Little Mr. Chatterbox!

Kolton is now 15 months old, and talking up a storm!! His latest word is "ouch"...which sounds like "uff", but he does it after banging his head against the floor, the table, the window...well, pretty much anything!! He's got a hard head, that's for sure!! We were also shocked to hear him say "cheese" the other night when we were taking his picture (climbing up on the bar stool!) I'm sure it has nothing to do with the photo sessions at the Cooper house every time there's a family dinner!

Other sounds he's making are "moo cow"...which is "boo-ow" and his horsey sound is a giggle (he-he-he) followed by the puff sound...I guess we like to do ALL the sound effects when we do the horse! :-) Our favorite is still "tickle", which he does a really good job at, and of course his peek-a-boo game of "where-go" or (where'd I go). This is a really fun age, where we can really tell he's picking up on EVERYTHING!! He even tunes into his cartoons for longer than a few seconds! Car rides are also more fun, as he's naming off everything he sees...even if we can't understand all the words he's saying yet! So far Kolton knows 4 signs and at least 20 words I can think of right now. Parent's As Teacher's is coming next week, so we'll see if he's on track there or not!!

Splitting Image??

OK, so the verdict is out on who our little man looks like.

Is it Mommy?

Or Daddy?

We're pretty sure it's a combo! He's got way more hair than Mommy did, but not quite the mop that Daddy had! :-) He has Mommy's brown eyes and dimples, but his smile is pretty close to Daddy's.

Can you hear me now...?

I guess the new generation sees us on our cell-phones all the time and wants one of their own. Kolton is always wanting to "play" with our phones! Jeff gave him an old one, but he knows it doesn't turn on! It's so amazing how fast he has learned to use the phone and hold it up to his ear...even if it is upside down! He even says "yell-o!" In one of these pics it even looks like he's texting...wow! It makes me wonder how we ever got along with out them and how we've come from the huge bag phones to the mini computer phones w/ the keypad!

These pics also remind me of the eTrade baby, when he gets a call from his "girlfriend"...check those out on UTUBE if you haven't seen them yet...hilarious!
