Welcome Baby Cooper!

Cooper Robert DeVries arrived on June 12, 2019 at 5:36pm, measuring 7 lb, 6 oz in weight, and 21" in length. He has blonde hair and blue eyes (so far) and we are smitten.

He's here! The little guy we've prayed for, read to, talked to, and imagined is finally here and we're over the moon. He arrived just in time for Father's Day, which felt so sweet.

We got to come home on Friday, and since, we've been recovering and figuring out the many logistics of our new life as a family of three (and we're doing life on baby Cooper's schedule :). I'll share more about his birth story soon, but in the meanwhile, we are learning his expressions, studying his face as he studies ours', and soaking in all the newborn snuggles. We are so thankful (and tired) and God is so good.

And on that note, here are a bunch of baby pictures, from when we were in the hospital... ;)

And some baby pictures since we've been home:

Brother love

Sometimes, it's still a shock to me that we have two little boys. The transition to two has been an adjustment for us, of course. Lots of hard moments and big emotions at times, but lots of sweetness too. Here are some of my favorite photos of our boys, from the last few months.

Life lately + Introducing Finn to family

It's been several weeks since Finn's arrival. I wrote about his birth story here, in case you missed it.  I simultaneously feel like there is so much I want to share about life the last several weeks and so few moments to sit down and write. I'll do my best to share some goings-on from recent weeks below.

Finn's birth story

I've been adding bits and pieces to this post for the last several weeks. Birth, and the arrival of a beautiful baby feel so sacred and I want to do it justice with my words. I shared Cooper's birth story back in 2019, and Finn's birth story feels equally precious, but very different. Here we go!
