Its the most wonderful time of the year!

Ahh, Christmas time again.  How I LOVE the holiday season.  Its such a great time to remember the blessings we have, to eat lots and lots of yummy, food, to reflect on all our Savior did and does for us, and especially to think about everything we DIDN'T DO this year!!!! Haha :) I say that because I've been terrible at this whole blog thing and I never did get any pictures up of Kohen.  So here we go!!

I was so surprised at how much I LOVE being a mom.  Kohen is such a little blessing and I adore him. He is so funny and active and smiley.  I never really knew that the saying "it melts my heart" really was true.  Sometimes I look at Kohen and my heart literally feels like its melting! I'm so mad I haven't been documenting as much as I want to because it is all going by so fast and I don't want to forget anything!!! So I am going to be better at recording what he does and when and I will be taking LOTS of pictures.  Trey bought me a new camera as a pre-Christmas present and I it is so much fun to take good quality pictures of Kohen.

So here are some pictures to make up for the months I never blogged about.

These are some of Kohen's newborn pictures, done by Terri Fairbanks Photography, at 1 1/2 weeks old :)









These are leading up to one month old. He was such a strong and happy baby! He could hold his head up and was learning how to start grabbing things

 So now that I've caught up on everything I won't overload my next posts with as many pictures!!!!! HAHA I just wanted to get the highlights posted :)  He is such a wonderful little boy.  We can't imagine our lives without him! There is no greater blessing that knowing I have him and Trey forever and ever.

Hope you all have a great holiday season!!!! Remember life is fragile and family is the most important gift we have.  Cherish these happy times and give to those who are less fortunate.  And don't forget what this time of year is all about, the birth of Jesus Christ who made our lives, happiness, and salvation possible!!!!
