I'm a mother of fairness! So I couldn't do a post just about Gracie without doing one about the special guy in my life!
Once upon a time, there was a mother who so desperately wanted a baby to call her own. She tried, and she tried, and she tried, but nothing seemed to work. After several years of failed attempts and fertility treatments, she decided it was time for a break. Well during that break, a miracle happened, and she was blessed to find out a baby would be on it's way!
Well that baby wasn't due to come until May 10, 2003. But he was a determined little baby, and he decided to come 4 whole weeks early. Surprise, Surprise for everyone! He had a bit of a hard time during his arrival and had to stay for an extra week in the hospital. But that determined little baby boy, Cooper Glen, got strong very quickly and was able to come home much sooner than they had expected!
He was a tiny little baby boy. Born at just 5lb, 2oz, nothing quite fit him just yet.
He was welcomed by the couple's first baby graciously when the love for pacifiers became a common bond!
Well that baby quickly grew!
He Grew!
And he Grew!!
And he grew!!
And then he grew some more!
Until one day... just 11 months later, he became a very proud Big Brother! And a wonderful big brother he is!
He loves to go on very fast rides, but protect that little sister along the way!
He's turned into quite the jokester! Constantly finding ways to amuse others, but mostly himself!
He has this amazingly contagious laugh!
He's quite the ladies man! Always a gentleman! :)
He Love, Love, Loves the water!
He's the silly one in the bunch!
But a great student too!
And he's one of his mommy's biggest cheerleaders!
He's the best miracle a mother could have ever asked for! I love you Cooper Bear!
