Havimg fun

Okay, so I might have had a little too much fun taking pictures of Canon sleeping. He just looked so cute and peaceful, I couldn't help myself. You would think I could have spent that time cleaning my kitchen, but that wouldn't have been nearly as fun.

Feet

I am definitely not a foot person. In fact, I hate most feet. But, baby feet are too cute to hate. I don't get to see Canon's feet very much since I have him in sleepers or socks most of the time since it is winter. So during a diaper change while his feet were bare, I decided to capture the precious moment and snap a picture of Canon's feet.

Juice Man

Everson loves making juice. He thinks it is so fun to use the juicer all by himself, which you cannot tell from the expression on his face. This expression is probably due to the fact that he had a cold and was all stuffed up this day. Not only does he like making the juice, but he also loves drinking it. This love of juicing was discovered at Todd's mom's house.

Nursery, Brian and Sharing!

This was the crown Everson got in Nursery at church. He absolutley hated it when they tried measuring his head for the size, and wanted nothing to do with it after that. The next day, he wanted to wear the crown all the time. It is now almost torn apart from him taking it on and off. Everson sure loved having Brian in town. Brian was Everson's favorite person to play with. He trumped Dad and Mom. Everson calls Brian, Bri Bri. They were so cute together. That is Everson's hand while he is trying to share is crayon with Canon. As you can see Canon is asleep, but that doesn't stop Everson from sharing his crayons or toys with him.

The boys!

Daddy and his boys!

Everson sure does love his little brother! He is so cute with Canon.

Spidey!

Everson has no idea who spiderman is, but he does enjoy pretending he is Spidey! He will even shoot his web at you.

Most of the time this is how he wears the mask.
He got tired of shooting his web and decided to go "nite, nite" with the mask.

Cute Pictures!

I can't believe the differences between Everson and Canon. Will they look like brothers?

A little cross eyed, but still so cute!

I love feet pictures.

First meeting!

Baby Boy Cooper's name is...Canon Thueson Cooper!

We got home from the hospital on Tuesday, Dec. 30th and have loved being home and not cooped up in a hospital room. Everson has been so good with Canon. He is a little controlling with Canon. Everson likes telling us when to pick the baby up and who gets to hold his baby. Other than that he has been really sweet, always wanting to kiss Canon and share his toys with him. We had to explain to Everson that Canon cannot catch a ball or read a book or play with his remote control car, so please do not try and share those toys with him, even though it is a very sweet of him to want to. We are having a great time being a family of four!

Surprise, he came 12 days early!

We are pleased to announce the arrival of our new baby boy! I had my first contraction at 4am, woke Todd up at 5am, checked into the hospital at 6:40am not knowing I was already 10cm dialated. The nurse scooted us swiftly from triage to the delivery room where we found out the baby was coming and drugs were not an option. A few pushes later, Baby Boy Cooper came into this world at 7:13am, weighing 7lbs 3oz and 20.75 inches. As you can see he has a full head of dark brown /black hair. Everson couldn't stop kissing his new brother when he came to visit and seemed very happy to see him. Hopefully he will be just as happy when we bring baby brother home tomorrow! (A name is yet to be decided)

Two More Weeks to go!
