Cooper is HOME!!!!

We got the good news this morning and we were able to bring him home at about 1pm today.  It was such a great day!! 

Jaxon and Lea were both so excited to get him home.  Or in Lea's words, "I so sited! I so sited!".  Even our dog Gizmo seemed excited to see what this new thing making noise in our house was.  He has been eating well, but not sleeping well.  Probably because of everything new he has to check out.

He is sleeping now...in his swing.  We're realizing that Cooper is too big  for even his cradle.  Never would fit in the bassinet.  We may have to quickly figure out where we can set up his crib and get Lea into a regular bed since her bed uses the crib mattress.

I just keep looking at him and it is just surreal to actually have him home.  Something as little as going into the other room to get his bottle, instead of having to drive to the hospital to give him a bottle, is such a wonderful feeling.

I want to thank you all for your prayers.  It has been a long journey to get to where we are today.  I know that we would not have made it through all of this if it wasn't for all of our family and friends supporting us and taking care of us and our kids.  And of course everyone that has said prayers for Cooper and our family, another big thanks.
