Slideshow

Yeahhh...I got a photo album up!! Check out the slideshow to the right. Also, Cooper is doing very well.

Praise the Lord!!

I just wanted to add that Cooper is an amazing gift from God. I forgot to put that yesterday, but we are so blessed and so thankful that God would give us such a wonderful little boy. God is certaintly good!! Also, thank you so much for all of your prayers and support. To everyone who has prayed and/or helped us out in any way, we are truly grateful. We have the most wonderful family and friends in the world! Another couple of things that you can pray for, if you'd like, are that Cooper's left eye will be okay. The pediatrician said that there's a speck in his pupil that could be a cataract, so he has to be checked out by a pediatric opthomologist (sp?). Also, Amber has been having some recovery issues, so just pray that those will get worked out sooner rather than later, and that she'll get plenty of rest. That's all for now. After our camera gets charged, I'll be working on getting a video put up. Thank you, thank you, and thank you again for all y'all have done!!

Cooper Picture Update...

Hey people,

Since I'm not quite sure how to add picture albums onto this site yet, all of the pictures are currently on my facebook page (Alan Isted). I'll try to get some videos on here later on, since I think I can do that.

COOPER IS HERE!!

Weighing in at 7 lbs. 8 oz. with a length of 19 3/4, Cooper Lee Isted has finally arrived!! He was born at 2:48pm on January 22, 2009. The first pictures are being put up now...a lot more to come later!

Cooper's Induction

Greetings!

Well, we've decided that since Cooper won't come out on his own, we'll go ahead and have him induced this Friday, January 23rd. That will make four family member birthdays within eight days: January 21st - Adam (Amber's cousin), January 25th - Alan's grandmom, January 28th - Alan's dad. Of course, Kathryn's (sister-in-law) birthday is also in January but earlier in the month. His appointment is at 7:30 AM, but no telling when he'll come out.

That's the Cooper update for now...

Awaiting Cooper's Arrival

Well, we're about four days away from Cooper's due date, but Amber's hoping he comes sooner (and I am too). We've been doing everything they say to do to speed up the process, but nothing seems to be working. The nursery is all set and we have everything we we need for him thanks to everyone being so generous!! Once he's born, we'll post pictures and videos on this blog, so you may want to bookmark the page.

Until Cooper's birth...
