Cooper's 3rd Birthday Party!

Cooper had a GREAT birthday party on Saturday!!  We had it at our church in the youth hall.  It was perfect: lots of seating, a playground outside, A/C, and it was free!  Cooper was so happy and excited; I really think he got that everyone was there for him.  It was truly an amazing afternoon.

We had a library themed party, so we (Brad) made a Very Hungry Caterpillar cake.

Not sure why this one is sideways...

This is Cooper being sung to.  He doesn't really get it at first...

...but then he realizes it's the best thing ever!!

And then Cooper got to eat frosting.  I guess our hard work with the spoon paid off, because he took a bite of frosting, then never looked back.  I think we've finally found something he'll eat!  P.S.  He's shirtless because we were worried the green frosting would stain.

Best picture of Cooper ever:

Yay cake!!

Sitting up like a big man.

The chair was a hit.  Every kid wanted to sit in it.  Semmes' new thing is pulling Cooper's hair.

Birthday boy!

After this, everyone went outside to play on the playground.  I gave Brad the camera while I fed Semmes, but got no pictures.  Men...

And then we opened presents!!

Do you see that huge pile??  Cooper is one lucky little boy!

Thank you to everyone that came to celebrate Cooper.  I can't believe he's almost three!  I can't believe I have a three year old!!  Ah!!
