Miss Maggie and Mr Cooper

I think I might have hit the jackpot! This little girl is so sweet.She defintely has daddy wrapped round her finger. I was telling Drea the other day I am absolutely smitten with her. She is such a great sleeper (her brother? not so much). She eats every three hours during the day and almost immediately goes back to sleep for 2-3 hours. Between 8 and 9 every night she falls asleep and doesn't wake up until about 330 or 4. I think this is why I feel so much better this time around...I can sleep for six-seven hours every night.

Maggie is so easy going and tolerates her brother so well. She is easily calmed and most of the time just wants to be held. She is a good eater but she does fall asleep during feedings and I have to wake her up and tell her to get back to work. I called the doc and told them how much she sleeps. The nurse said are you complaining or bragging? HA! I guess I shouldn't worry.

She has a littl "swine eye". It's actually just clogged tear ducts. Cooper had it too about this age. After she sleeps she looks like this. So we have to get a warm wash cloth and clean it for her. Poor baby. He little umbilical cord hasn't fallen off yet. Cooper's fell off at two weeks and 1 day, so hopfully it'll be soon

Cooper loves her dearly. From the moment he walks in he is all about his sister. "Where's Maggie?" are usually the first words he says to me. He calls her his sweet girl and gives her lots of kisses. He loves to help change her diaper and whenever we use a bottle he wants to help. He is still really rough but I survived my two older brothers, I guess she will too.


Cooperism...daddy wakes him up on Monday morning to go to the babysitter. "Daddy, go away, I am not done sleeping yet" Daddy answers, "Yeah me either, but we have got to go."
