Waking Up is Hard to Do....

Hi Everyone!

I am a little groggy from my long sleep but I am awake! I felt very grumpy at first and I told that physical therapist to leave me alone! So she did. Then I waited all pouty until my Mommy came!

And when I saw my Mommy, I was so happy because she knows how I like to be talked to and played with. She made my Lamb-kins walk and talk and cuddle me and I reached really far until I caught it and hugged it! Then we smiled and Mommy called me her "sweet little monster" and we laughed and smiled some more. Then Mommy pushed on my feet and talked about jump, jump, jumping and I pretended that I thought we were really jumping to make Mommy feel better since she can't really pick me up just yet.

My Daddy is coming to see us today! Then Mommy and I will be really happy.

I am not sure yet when we can move on to the transplants but for now I am awake and working very hard to show these nurses how I like things to be done.

Thanks for checking on me and taking good care of Mommy and Daddy while I have been resting.
Love and kisses, Cooper

Dear Emily,
Hope you are getting to enjoy something that most people take for Granted.(Holding and enjoying their child.)
We have all shared your highs and lows and the heartache. You can be assured that you have someone at home eagerly awaiting your arrival just like Amanda does. I try to be strong as I am sure Brookes is for you. We are all behind you and maybe one day our boyes will be able to play in the sand, the dirt, the mud or even wrestle Crocodiles or at least their Dad's which ever. I always ask about you and its all good news these days.
Love and Best wishes from the Aussie from DownUnder.
