5 weeks!

So, we haven't posted for awhile...but I am finally getting the hang of this mommy thing and made Cooper go down for a nap so I could get some sanity time. :)

Cooper is doing so well! The first week home after the hospital (which was really week 2) was a little scary. We took turns sleeping with Cooper downstairs, watching his breathing. We were so paranoid...i don't know how we survived! Now, Cooper sleeps in his own room and usually lets me get 4-5 hours before he wakes up for food. Brett is a good helper and gets him all ready for bed at night during the week, and on the weekends he helps with middle of the night wake up calls.

Cooper is definitely a good baby and only cries when he is hungry or needs a diaper change. We wish he slept longer at night, but we will take what we can get!

He is just starting to smile and we are loving it. It is still rare to get a little smirk from him, so when it happens we get really excited. I have been trying to catch one on camera and I finally got it!




Here are some cute pictures I got of him today. Brett, being the photography buff that he is, didn't like that the flash was so bright in these pics...but oh well. :)





SO CUTE!
We are so lucky to have Cooper. He makes us smile everyday. He is worth all of our time and energy.
We love you Coop Dogg.
