Well, we were released from the hospital on Halloween around 3PM. Cooper's tests came back negative, so they are thinking his culture was contaminated and it wasn't actually in Cooper's system at all. Unfortanately he had to be hooked up to that IV and have antibiotics for 3 days when it wasn't really necessary, but I'm glad they were overly cautious and made sure there was nothing wrong with him. Cooper is doing well. He still has jaundice so he is on a light, but hopefully won't have to be on that much longer. When we came home Addison greeted us and was so excited to finally have Cooper home. Maddox was napping, but when he woke up he seriously had a smile on his face for an hour!!! He was so excited he could barely contain himself. It was very sweet. He is always wanting to be holding him, feeding him, touching him, kissing and hugging on him or up in his face. He means well, but we are really having to watch him. He thinks he is capable of picking him up all by himself. Maddox is also having a hard time with having a new little person in the house. He has started going in his diaper again which he has never done. He has no desire to wear his big boy underwear because he says he is a baby. Whenever Cooper cries, Maddox starts crying just like him. Yesterday when he woke up from his nap, we went into his room and he had torn the border off of his wall. He said it was because he was mad at the wall. We asked him if he was mad that Cooper was here and he said no, but we have never had issues like this with Maddox. He has always been the layed back one who was a really good listener. I forgot what it was like to get up during the middle of the night for feedings!!!!! I'm sure there is a reason why we forget that!!! Cooper likes to eat!! I'm noticing he also loves to be held. It's hard to not want to hold him all the time, because I know he is my last baby. Gotta run for now, speaking of eating, Cooper just woke up and is using those lungs to tell me he is hungry!!!

Oh Nicole! He is so precious and I am so happy for you all! I know it may be sad to see Maddox go through some changes right now, but it will soon pass. Jolee was a different little girl when Emmy came home and it broke my heart. But, it's just a phase and soon they'll be playing with trucks together! Best of luck to you!
He's beautiful! We are so thrilled for you! You are going to LOVE having 2 boys along with a princess. We sure do!
