One Week Old

Cooper and Charlotte are already 1 week old. We had our first doctor’s visit (since leaving the hospital) on Monday. Both children are doing great according to the doctor. Cooper has gained almost 1 pound and Charlotte is back to her original birth weight which is great. We have learned a few things about our children already in this week as their personalities start to emerge. For instance, Cooper has a little Houdini in him. He tries to maneuver out of his swaddle any chance he can get. He also is a little jokester. He will let you believe that the coast is clear to remove the baby wipe or pee pee tee pee when you are changing him, and then bam! He creates a fountain that sprays everywhere!

Charlotte on the other hand is the hiccup queen. She just looks at food and she automatically gets these hiccups that shake her whole body and turn into this endearing pitiful little thing. One individual who has not surprised us is big brother Kramer. He is always the vigilant protector of the family and comes running at the slightest sign of crying just to ensure that everything is alright. He loves giving the babies kisses and sleeping outside their bedroom door at night. Here are a couple pictures of them at one week old.

  1. Great pictures! We're so glad the dr visit and report is good! They are so sweet looking. I hear you are adjusting wonderfully to these new little people, especially you, Jennifer, since Jeff is back to work! Kathy & Ronnie
