Cooper's Elmo Birthday Party!

On Saturday we celebrated Cooper's 2nd birthday with an Elmo birthday party! This guy is obsessed with Elmo so it was the perfect theme for his party this year.  We had it at the Caddo Valley City Park so it was perfect for the kiddos to run and play.  Cooper had a blast!  We have the best family and friends ever and it tickled Coop to see everyone at his party. 
 
This was the best one I could get of all 3 of us. He was not in the mood for pictures.  He was ready to get down and play! :) 
 
Elmo cake pops! They were so cute!
 

Coop's Elmo birthday cake!

As soon as he saw the cake, he ran towards it and stuck his fingers in it before I could stop him.  Oh well it added character to it :)


 He was loving the jungle gym at the park!
 
He loves to slide!

Apparently Blake does too! I can't believe he fit down it! LOL!

Such excitement

The Cowart clan!


I finally drug him away from the park to eat lunch.  He had worked up an appetite!
 

Then it was time to sing Happy Birthday and blow out his candle!

This was his face as everyone was singing to him.  So sweet!
 

The wind kept blowing out the flame on his candle so we had to pretend :)

Next, it was time to bust the Elmo piรฑata!

He LOVED this!  I think all the kids did :)

Boston's face is priceless!!

 I don't think Emmett wanted to hurt Elmo cause he would not hit him hard. LOL!
 
 Kinley's turn!
 
He was so serious and on a mission!

 
Next it was time for presents.  He got the cutest and coolest stuff ever! Thank you to everyone for all the gifts!

 


 


 
Then it was time for the last present of the day! The grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins all decided to pitch in and get Coop one big gift from everyone.  Cooper LOVES tractors.  We wanted to get him a ride on toy so when I saw this John Deere tractor I knew it was the perfect one for him.  Everyone said the look on his face was priceless when he saw it.  His back was to me so I wasn't able to get a picture of his face, but everyone said it was so sweet how excited he was.
   


 That's one happy boy!
 







 
Happy #2! We love you!

Happy 2nd Birthday Cooper!!

Today my baby boy turned 2 years old! To celebrate his birthday and daddy's father's day we took a trip to the zoo!
 
What a cheeser! If he would only look at the camera :)

 Happy father's day to daddy and happy #2 to Coop!
 
Ready to ride in his wagon!

Too cute!


Feeding the fish!



Checking out the flamingos!


 Hehe!
 
Cutest squirrel I've ever seen! 

Now that's a BIG turtle!

Time to ride the train! He really was more excited than he looks :)


Loving the bear!


 Every time we got to an exhibit where one of the animals were hiding, he would say.."Where is it?" He didn't understand why there was nothing to see :)
 




Looking at the snakes..He LOVED it. 

He kept saying "Lion sleeping..night night." So sweet!


 
What's a birthday without cake, so when we got home after dinner, Cooper got his very own cupcake with a number 2 candle.

My sweet boy!

Blowing out his candle! After he blew it out he wanted us to light it again.  He just loved the act out blowing out the candle :)

Time to dig in!  I loved this cause on his first birthday, he didn't like smashing the cake in his face. This year he had no problem doing it, but he still had to wipe his hands after every bite.  He can't stand for his hands to be dirty :)

 YUM
 




Happy boy!
 
As I laid my sweet boy down to bed tonight I had tears in my eyes thinking how fast these last 2 years have flown by.  Every day is a blessing and I'm so blessed to be his mommy.
 
Happy Birthday Cooper Powell!
