Cooper has Arrived!


Cooper Gene arrived last nite, April 2nd, at 11:05 pm. He weighed 8 lbs. 10 oz...not as big as everyone thought he was going to be!...and is 22 inches long. He has a little dimple in his left cheek like his big brother Dylan and a little cleft in his chin like his Mama! Downy dark hair. Long, beautiful fingers with tiny pearl-pink fingernails. He and Mama are doing fine. What a thrill to hold him for the first time! Now I can really relax, going in to surgery, knowing he made it here whole, healthy, and absolutely beautiful. I'll have pictures of him sometime soon. So much going on right now, as I'm sure you know, but I just wanted to share our wonderful news!
