Meet Cooper Benjamin Doll

Our sweet little boy, Cooper Benjamin Doll, arrived on April 12, 2011 at 2:15pm.  He weighed 7 pounds, 6 ounces and was 19.5 inches long.  It was love at first sight and we love him more and more each day.  We are so grateful for this gift God gave us and feel so proud and blessed to be his parents.  Here are some highlights from his BIRTHday.

My sister, the delivery day make-up artist..thanks Ang!

My sister's hair and make-up job, plus the epidural, get credit for my smile in this picture:)

For some reason, I demanded ice chips at this point in labor. 

I'll NEVER forget this moment as long as I live!!!

Proud Dad, Ben.

Welcome to the Doll House

This is my first post as a blogger!  I'm a little tense, but know I will warm up to this new verb: blogging.  Anyways, welcome to our blog!!  I hope I this blog will blog you with fun in the Doll House.  As I blog at this moment, we are anxiously awaiting the arrival of our first child here in a few weeks!  He will be a big blogging topic on this blog and forgive me in advance for being a proud Mommy blogger.  So....away we blog!

Here are some before and after shots of the transformation of guest room to Cooper's room.

Get a closer work at this original artwork by my friend Caroline.  You can't tell in these pictures, but the images are made out of the same patterns in the fabric of the bedding.  She simply color copied the fabric and then worked her magic.  She's amazing!!
