Chonkytown!

Are you guys ready for this? Today Cooper tipped the scale at  6 lbs 4 oz!!! We have really watched this guy blossom and thrive in the 6 days he’s been home, and it’s incredible!

Today was just a plain enjoyable day. Coop was awake and interactive much of the afternoon and evening, so we took the time to read to him, bring him outside in the yard, FaceTime/Zoom with friends and fam, and just soak him up. 

His nursing skillz are coming along really nicely, and since we’re just counting that as bonus on top of his meals, I think it’s helping a ton with his weight gain. Next week we will work with our pediatrician to figure out an update to his feeding plan. 

I know every day won’t be sunshine and rainbows, but hopefully on the less awesome days I can think back about a day like today and remember that it’s worth it!
