We're Home

I've cursed the pull out couch at the hospital for the last time. Today we packed up Coopers belongings and put him in his car seat and headed for the house.

It was an active day. Cooper and I took naps from 2-4pm today. Actually he is still napping and it's 8:30pm, so advantage baby in the napping competition.

After that we showed him the layout of the house and explained to him his part of the chores and how trash day is Monday and laundry day is Tuesday. He opened one eye during that presentation. Now I know how the flight attendants feel while they show everyone how to buckle and tighten their seat belts at the top of every flight (even though everyone has already done both of those tasks).

So we're all settled in at home and ready for our first night of sleep deprivation. Lucas has even tried to give him his ball to see if Cooper will play fetch with him yet.

That does it for now. Tomorrow night we'll see how well he does at watching the Mavericks with me. I'll keep you posted.

Pictures!

Here are some pictures from the events at the hospital:

Baby Tripp (Cooper) is here!

So for the past 9 months, we've had Cooper nicknamed Baby Tripp. Now we're weaning ourselves off of that and calling him by his actual name. Cooper Chase Haught. For those of you that don't know the back story to that here it is...

Kiley and I lost a pregnancy about 7 years ago - twin boys. She was 18 weeks along and we had some complications resulting in loosing our first two boys that we named Cooper Alan and Chase Michael. So we took the first two names and bundled it into one ball of joy.

So on April 20 at 12:21pm they sliced Kiley's womb open and pulled all 6 lbs 9oz, 20 and 1/4 inches out of her and we were parents again.

Jackson and Ellie were trilled!

I'll be posting updates here weekly on Cooper, Jackson and Ellie as well as Kiley and I so check back for that. See you here soon!
