Cooper, go get your football!

Those five words come out of my mouth at least once a day, every day. The rope & football toy show above is Cooper's absolute FAVORITE toy of all time. Cooper is constantly toting his football around and dropping it (not so subtly) at my feet as his way of announcing that it is playtime.

If I ask him to go find his football, Cooper runs out of the room in search of his beloved toy, always returning with it in mere seconds. He loves this toy so much that he even peed on it (twice) to keep Brady from trying to take it away (sidenote: this lovely habit of his has caused us to test the durability of the football many times and the rope had stayed in tact, as has the tough, but flexible, plastic of the football).

My mom bought Cooper his first football, and we have since purchased another to have on hand just in case he loses the original or it eventually wears out. If you're interested, PetSmart has the football on sale for a ridiculously reasonable price of $2.97 (for more info, click here).
