December...

Oh my I love my silly monkey!!!! These pictures are long over due!! I need to be better about posting. I could just kick myself. haha:) So Colston is now 4 1/2 months old and I can't believe it! Time with him is so precious and I can't even believe how fast it flies. I am so grateful that I can be home with him:0 ) I love being his mama. Nothing brings me greater joy! He is now 14 lbs and 24 in. HIMS a growing boy! He is the best sleeper and I'm so thankful for that~ he has 2 (2) hour naps and a 1/2... I say 1/2 because it's really just a small cat nap in the evening. He is now eating oatmeal cereal and LOVES it! I'm happy to announce to those that knew, I haven't used the nursing shield for a bout a month now! AMAZING!!! He is grabbing everything and putting into his mouth now and it's so fun to watch him learn. He has the cutest laugh... the other night after nursing he looked and me and started cracking up~! So I laughed then he did... this went on for 4 min straight!!! WHAT?! oh I split a gut! He is so funny. I have half of it recorded and I hope I can upload it on here somehow... You will die! HILARIOUS. We have been busy with December birthday's and Christmas Parties like you wouldn't believe. NUTS. We are so excited for his first Christmas he loves the lights on the tree, the fun packages and bows (wants to eat them), reading Christmas books and staring at the gingerbread house I made pretty sure he wants to eat that too... :) Chris is doing so well with his business (ROCK DOC- chip repair and NU vision-windshield replacements) I AM SO PROUD OF HIM!! I am so very thankful for my healthy happy family who I love so much! Remember the reason for the season! Lot's of love!

Colston was a MONKEY for his very first halloween and he was so freakin adorable!!! LOVE IT! We had fun trick or treating all the grandparents. I'm so excited for many more holidays with my sweet guy! He makes everything 100% more exciting!

Deer Hunting...


My wonderful man is crazy about HUNTING! He is so passionate about hunting and fishing it's nuts! But I love that he has this sport! I know how freakin excited he is to teach our little guy all about the outdoors and he can't wait to make memories of it with him! So this year was harder than normal for me because we had a 10week old son. Chris usually leaves for the entire week. So my mom came and stayed with me for the first weekend. We had fun and I'm thankful she stayed to break me in a little bit. I cried a few times I won't lie! lol. Chris came home half way in the week cuz he missed us:) He went back up and got a 4 point. WE LOVE OUR DADDY and glad he's home:)

I could stay lost in this moment forever...

I am just so very truly in love with my sweet baby Colston!! I am loving every minute of being his mommy. Seriously life could not get any more amazing! He had his 2 month check up at the doctor yesterday and I can hardly wrap my mind around the fact that he is already 2 months old. But anyway he is now 11LBS. 9oz. 22 1/2inches. He is growin and it's so fun to watch him explore and learn new things all the time. Thanks to a wonderful book "Baby Wise" and great support from my friends Angie and Alesha, Colston is on a nice schedule and I'm telling you it's like clock work! He eats every 3 hours is awake for 1 and naps for 2. He has been sleeping threw the night for about 2 weeks and it is heaven! I just love the little guy he is so happy and smiley! An hour after he was born he was suckin his cute thumb and found it a few times in the first month but lately he has been trying soooo hard to get the hang of it and bless his little heart he found it! I have to say I think it is so freakin cute! (right now) He is holding his head up so good and is wanting to stand! Goodness:) He loves bathtime with daddy!!! He is such a good sport about EVERYTHING!! I feel lucky! Being a mama is by far the most rewarding thing I've ever done in my life. I have discovered what unconditional love really is. Motherhood rocks!!! Yes some things are challenging and the decisions you have to make for the little one can be rough but I wouldn't trade it for anything I love a challenge:) Looking forward to many more sweet memories!

One month and one day old...

Our little man is a month old! He is learing, growing and changing so much every single day it is incredible!! The past 4 weeks have been AMAZING even though I am exhausted:) Probably due to the fact that I'm runnin on 3 hours of sleep? Anyway he had his first real responsive smile yesterday 9/9/09. I tried to catch it on camera but missed 5 times! He loves this green frog that jinggles, we were playin havin fun and all the sudden he cracks a huge smile from ear to ear! My heart melted... oh man there is nothin better! I did it again just to be sure it was for real and sure enough... smile number 2! PRECIOUS. When Chris came home for lunch I showed him and he about cried! (hopefully he's not reading this) lol. Colston is such a good baby. He is eating every three hours and it's great fun watching him explore more and more every day! We love this kid with all our hearts, he has the sweetest spirit ever! I do have to say I am totally looking forward to when he will sleep threw the night. Soon enough right?
My two little angels (my niece skylee holding our son) oh how they melt my heart:)

Thank heavens for swings! Little man loves it!


Ahh... a breath of fresh air! First stroller ride!
