the paige is in...

Hi All,This is Angel's sister Paige and after a long battle with Grandma Cheryl, (there was definitely some hair-pulling and scratching involved) I got to take the night shift. Charlie had a fairly relaxing day, he slept most of the morning and did have a single storm until around 5 this afternoon. Whit was watching him and I think that any boy's heart rate would go up with such a pretty girl nearby. He was so excited he needed a little bit of morphin to calm him down. He has been sleeping, ironically, like a baby since his aunt Paige got here and hopefully we can both have a restful night. His oxygen has been a little low but the nurse said that the morphin will do that to him and she is watching it closely. Angel and Rob had an eventful day- they moved into their new house today and had all sorts of commotion. Everything is moved and it is just the unpacking that is left, a good portion of that is done as well. Britty got to play with his friends down the street all afternoon and didn't want to come home until he found out that all his cousins came over to see his new crib (that is the rapper version of crib- as now he has his very own big boy bed). We even had a visit from the budding superstar Dan Cahoon who graced us with his illustrious presence on his way to Nashville to finish up his first solo album. (how is that for a plug- if I had a website, I would post it here). Anyway, I hope Angel and Rob enjoy their first night in their new house (Britty decided he wanted to stay at Grandma Barlows so he could watch Power Rangers!) and I will update if there is any news-Goodnight!Paige

Paige exaggerates. I pouted a lot but was not violent. It is a blessing to spend time with such a special spirit. I enjoy being with Charlie so much; I'll get my time in soon.
A big THANK YOU to all who have helped in the house - building, painting, cleaning, unpacking, decorating, tending kids, etc. It is beautiful and truly a work of love!
Rob and Angel are blessed to have such caring, compassionate friends, neighbors and family.

Can't wait to see your house....
I totally understand Cheryl's need to be there with that beautiful baby... We were trained by the most doting, caring people (some people may not have used those exact same words, however!).

Have a good day sweet Charlie. Love you, JIll B

Hi Cousins- I check in daily on Coop's progress and pray (yes, Rob I pray) for all of you! I am so excited to hear that you are finally in your home. I would love to help with decorating anytime you'd like. Can we just stop by unannounced and take a peek? Please let me know if you ever need me to sit with Coop. I would truly love to hang out with him. He really needs to get to know us Birrell's. We may be a little different, but you can't say we're BORING, right ROB??? We love you guys and are so impressed at how strong you two are as parents. I truly admire you both and love you so much!!! See you all soon...

Hello to all... I can't even rememeber how I happened onto little Charlie Cooper's website, but I've been following his progress for several days now. I hope it helps to know that there are other prayers sent heavenward in his behalf - What a beautiful boy! Stay strong.
