Cooper has started dancing when he is extremely happy, or when he is in a good mood and hears music that he likes. It is very charming. His dances is a funny little side to side motion that involves sort of weaving his head back and forth. As a result of him starting to dance, we've discovered his favorite music is bluegrass, and his ultimate favorite food in the whole world is blueberries. If he's standing when he dances, he also stomps his feet.
He's also finally started using his toy cars like toy cars. He rolls them across the floor, chases them, and "drives" them as he crawls along the floor. Today he was particularly excited about a green one we call the PT Cruiser. Yesterday he was all about the red convertible, which Matt claims is a Volkswagon Cabriolet.
Most interestingly, Cooper now fully can feed himself with a spoon. I guess he's been watching us very carefully, because we have never attempted to teach him this. He's always liked holding his own spoon, but it was quite a surprise when on Thursday he started deliberately dipping the spoon into his yogurt, putting it into his mouth, sucking the yogurt off, and then dipping it in again. It actually took me a while to realize he was doing this, as I was distractedly feeding him while eating my own lunch. Today (Sunday) I gave him 4oz of applesauce and he managed to eat about 2oz all by himself before it seemed like he was getting frustrated. Pretty cool!
