My Little Guy

It is literally amazing how this...

(morning of the induction. Don't mind my double chin. I'm a week overdue, okay?)

can turn into this..... We went into the hospital and 6:30 AM last Thursday and at 10:33 PM this little man came into the world
Giving birth was unlike anything I imagined and was something almost unexplainable.
It was such special experience.
The day after Cooper was born I kept saying to Colin,
"that was really hard. I can't believe I did that."
And I still can't believe that I grew this little boy and brought him into the world.
We are so lucky that he was born healthy and so perfect.
I still just look at him in amazement.

I feel like my life completely changed in the last week.
It has been quite the adjustment.
This little boy just wants to eat and eat.
It's funny how something so small can rule your life.
But I'm okay with that.
I just want to stare at him and snuggle him all day long.

It's crazy that we are parents now and while it feels weird it also feels natural.
Colin has taken to be a daddy very well and I feel like I might be getting a hang of the mommy thing.

Here is some pictures of my little guy.


My sweet friend Whitney Smith was nice enough to come a take pictures of the little guy. Her skills are amazing and I must say Cooper being so good looking helps too.

Also, my awesome friend Kristin Gaul came and took some pictures too. Cooper was acting like such a model.
Can this little boy get any cuter? Personally I don't think so.
