1 week old + 1 day

We planned on blogging about his first week of life yesterday (his actual 1 week), but we've learned that things don't always go as planned with a sweet little newborn mini-Cooper.

It's been a terrific 1st week, with daylight hours flying by and nights, well, not exactly flying. Coop's adjusting well though to a more Mom & Dad-friendly schedule. Our last two nights have been the best yet in terms of sleep. We are all getting multiple 2-hour naps at night now, and we are happy to have them.

We just got back from the doctor, and little pudgy Coop has gained 7 ounces since Monday. Dr. Maxey gave him a glowing report.

Grandma K and Grandpa D are in the air and en route to make Cooper's introduction. Coop can't wait.

Hope everyone is doing well. Here are some new pictures...

Dad;

Looks like your a natural and you have ten kids... Knew that would happen. Cooper is his fathers child and hopefully he has his mothers personality and this kid will be unstoppable... All is well here in Vegas and his godfather is improving his golf game and trying to improve mine and his work will never end.... Love you all Grandma and Grandpa on both sides. Great Aunt Bee....

Yikes! I can't wait for sleepless nights! Just kidding! I can. He is so cute I can't wait to meet him! Hang in there! I hear it gets easier.

Miss you
Cheers
