Cooper is Two Months Old!



Look at that smile!!! Although it doesn't happen too often (I think we have a serious man on our hands) the smiles are happening here and there. I really think the dogs make him smile more than Mom and Dad do. Maybe he was just happy to be wearing his new Yankees onesie from Uncle Brian in Cleveland who sent him all kinds of good sports gear. I'm sure that smile will become a frown in a few months when the Yankees don't make it to the World Series despite spending more money than any other major league team. Just kidding Dad...


Cooper is growing and changing more than we could have imagined. He's acclimated to school beautifully and continues to be a good baby for us at home. We occasionally sleep through the night (albeit a short night) but usually sleep from 10 to 4 and then get up to feed. This gives Mom another hour of sleep from 5 to 6 before getting ready for the day.


He continues to love tummy time, his swing and riding in the car. We will make our first road trip as a family of three later this month when we meet up with Christopher's parents in Abingdon, VA for a long weekend. He can't wait to meet Grandmama and Grandpapa Wells as well as Queenie.


Cooper has even adjusted to taking baths. I had tried everything including all the suggestions from books, friends and family... nothing helped to calm him... except time. One day I gave him a bath and he just laid there quiet as a mouse. HE even seemed to enjoy it. Since that bath all his baths have been during the day in case that was the tipping point for some strange reason.


I love you Coopies. Can't wait to see what's in store next month!!!
