New Baby, Big Brother, and One Proud Mama!

Finally! Keegan is a big brother!  We all got to meet Cooper. And Mama can shave her legs again! Whoop whoop! Cooper made his entry into the world on Tuesday, July 29 at 5:30 am. He came out screaming and immediately stole our hearts! He weighed 7 lbs 10 oz and was 19.5 inches long...a tiny peanut compared to when his chubby brother was born!

Leading up to the big day, Mommy had tried about everything to get this show on the road. Needless to say Keegan benefited from trips to the zoo and park for walking, and pool days for relaxing. 

Playing at the park and at the zoo!




 Cheesing away one morning, wondering if maybe that day would be the day Cooper was born

Pool Day!


 Took a trip to "Go Kids Gym" and he had a blast! He has asked several times to go back and play






Mommy and Keegan at 39 weeks heading to Church

 Aunt Cari and cousins Jace and Lexa decided they could no longer stand the anticipation and headed to Omaha on Sunday to wait for Cooper's arrival...luckily they timed it perfect and helped so that Keegan never missed a beat!

Jace is basically Keegan's hero..and he ran to find clothes that looked just like Jace's!





 And finally..on to Cooper! 13 hours of labor and 1.5 hours of pushing was nothing in comparison to Keegan's birth....and worth every minute!


First bath


 One proud big brother....meeting Cooper for the first time and giving him Spidey Bear he made him



 Grandma F. and Cooper..and Spidey...because Keegan is certain Cooper will cry without him





Daddy and Cooper doing some snuggling!

Clean bill of health = going home after 24 hours


              Fair to say Cooper didn't go unloved or untouched when he got home

He is truly so proud and excited to have Cooper here finally...and he is handling change like a champ!

 Keegan and Mommy had a date to watch Frozen which ended like this....for Mommy too actually

Always taking care of him

Just precious during his first few days of life


Milk Coma....he is a true snuggler if there ever was one


We are so happy to have Cooper here at last! Keegan is already such a great big brother and Cooper is going with the flow..so far. He will snuggle and cuddle all day long (and so we are!) and has yet to show us his eyes for more then about 10 seconds at a time. Lots of pictures will be taken so tune back soon!
