Yesterday, after 37 hours of horrible labor, my sister had her first baby boy, Cooper Burke Show. Cooper weighed in at 6 pounds and 1 oz. Born: September 13th at 3:49 p.m. I don’t ever want to experience the pain my sister went through, at least for that long. She is a tough cookie and she survived it well.
I am sad to say I have not had a chance to speak to her or Jon. After 2 days of labor and no sleep, she is sleeping and she and Jon are taking in the first moments of being Mom and Dad. She and Jon are going to be great parents.
I at least talked to Jill yesterday, who helped Michelle through some of the Labor pains and was one of the first to see little COOPER. She was so happy to hold him in her arms. She told me it was so weird to think that the baby was just in Michelle’s belly and then right there in her arms. Birth is such a powerful thing, I hope to be there when Jill has a baby or the next time Michelle does. It’s hard having them both so far away.
I want hop on a plane and go see everyone, but luckily I missed my flight to her baby shower and booked another one for the 3rd week in November. I don’t think I could wait tell Christmas, it’s going to be hard waiting a month. I look forward to stories and pictures until I get to hold him in my arms. : )
