Memorable Moments:
The most memorable moment would of course be Cooper's birth on June 12th! It was amazing to be with Jordan and her wonderful family during the birth and at the hospital afterward. We feel so lucky Jordan allowed us to have those opportunities! Jordan is the most unselfish person we know!

Becoming parents finally! After 7 years of just the two of us we were very ready to become parents and it feels so good to have Cooper in our arms!

It was great to have time with Jordan, Debbie, Avery, Joe and other family members who came to visit at the hospital. We had great conversation and enjoyed every minute with Cooper!

Brianne's two weeks home alone with Cooper while Mike was in Fiji were very memorable and special. She loved having the time to get to know Cooper, bond with him and love him to pieces.

Mike came home from Fiji when Cooper was 2 weeks old. It was a very happy reunion! Mike took his paternity leave as soon as he got home so he could spend every minute with Cooper. Mike is the best daddy!

Things that Make Cooper Cry:
The Doctor!
When he's hungry
When his bath water is too cold.

Things that Make Cooper Smile:
Only his dreams : )
