Little Baby Cooper...

Little Baby Cooper is happy as a clam! He is a good little guy. We can't complain about sleep, as he does a 6 hour stretch at night! That's pretty amazing at 2 weeks! And, he's been doing it for nearly a week. We're still trying to figure our his feeding routines - the dr would like him to gain weight faster than we're at. But, all things considered, everything is wonderful!

We discovered the magic of the baby sling! He loves it - and it gives me arms! We brought it to Thanksgiving dinner and it helped us all have a much more peaceful evening! In fact, he is in it right now as I type this.

The girls are just loving him. I really think them being nearly 3.5 yrs old is the perfect age difference! They understand when I need to feed him and are very patient. They are also nice and gentle with him when they give hugs and kisses. And, they have not yet asked for him to be sent back! All great news!!

I discovered baby sling with my second one and I loved it!!! My favorite activity was laundry. I loved bending over to get stuff out of the dryer - one piece at a time, it gave my excersise and movement for the baby.
