December 17, 2007

Last weekend marked Cooper's 4th birthday. Since I haven't been blogging for 4 years, I thought I would write some memories down about the day he was born (oh and try not to tear up!).

I honestly don't remember a lot, so hopefully there are more details written in his baby book. I do remember we went in to the hospital thinking it was "time", and got sent home. Later, Gma Teresa showed up to help me labor. She was a great coach! We finally went to the hospital when she thought I couldn't catch my breath between contractions (I was a major wuss!). I told mom "this sucks", which was a swear word at our house! I begged for the epidural when we got there. Joni raced across the state to make it for delivery and cut the umbilical cord when Cooper arrived at 7:11 on 12/17/07!

Cooper was a great baby from day one. He started sleeping through the night around 3 weeks-I couldn't have asked for much more! The last four years have been a blessing, and I thank God for giving me such a special little boy!

A new backpack! (He was this dramatic during the entire party!)
