Cooper Update

Cooper is doing awesome.  He's problem solving a little, mimicking the sounds we make, and finding the most random things funny.  For example, last night I was saying his name in this really high-pitched, annoying voice.  He was kinda laughing at me.  Then Brad started saying his name in a really low-pitched voice.  We were alternating back and forth and Cooper thought it was the funniest thing ever.  I mean he was deep belly laughing at us.

His therapies are going really well.  He PT says she has him figured out.  He HATES anything new for about the first 5-10 minutes.  He screams like someone is torturing him whenever he has to do anything new.  But then he gets over it.  And is fine from then on.  Also, he hates for you to take his hands and show him something; he hates for anyone to touch his hands, period.  But if you put something next to him that you want him to explore, he'll do it all by himself.  It may not be right when you want it to happen, but he will check it out.  Stubborn kid that likes to do things his way?  Sounds about right.
