What we have been up to Lately- We went to a couples Halloween party for our ward members last week and had a really great time. We already love our neighborhood and everyone in our ward is really great. The pictures of Devin as Florance Nightingale was for his school Halloween Carnival. He got extra credit to dress up as a girl nurse! good stuff. I couldn't stop laughing at him, he looks so funny as a girl! He is gonna hate that I put these pictures on here, but I couldn't help myself. It isn't everyday that my husband dresses up as a girl! For Halloween we went to dinner with Devin's parents and then came back to our house to play cards. We had a great time hanging out. It is so fun living in Gunnison and being so close to family. Also Devin's parents have been great to help watch Cooper for us when we need to go out. They are the best! Happy Halloween!

Life with Cooper

Mom and Gramma Rae came to visit baby Cooper! We had a great time visiting! thanks for coming to see us!

We have had so much fun with Cooper home. He is such a good baby. I love being able to stay home and play with him all day. Its the life, I love being a stay at home Mom. Before having kids everyone would tell us that our lives were going to change and things were never going to be the same. Now that I am a Mommy I agree that having a baby does change things but in the best way. We love being parents! Cooper brings so much happiness to our lives and we love our sweet baby.

Looking Back

Dating Engaged
Our wedding day! September 8, 2006

Above- Our first year Anniversary!

Now- 2 years together and parents to baby Cooper!

So I didn't get to write on our 2 year anniversary cause I was in the hospital recovering from having the baby. September 8th was our 2 year anniversary. I can't believe we have already been married 2 years. and I can honestly say they have been the best 2 years so far and I'm so glad I get him for eternity! I love being married to Devin and couldn't ask for a better Husband. He takes such good care of me and we have such a good marriage. When I was still single and would dream about what married life would be like I couldn't even imagine it this good because my marriage is even better than I had dreamed it would be. Devin is such a good Daddy and I love watching him with Cooper. He is so good to help out with him. When he knows I am super tired he will get up with him in the night to feed him and let me sleep. Last night I wasn't feeling very good and he told me to take a nap and he would watch the baby. When I woke up he had folded the laundry and done the dishes. He is so thoughtful. One of the things I love most about our relationship is he is always making me laugh. He knows just how to cheer me up and he is the only one that can make me smile when I am mad. Thanks babe for 2 wonderful years, and here's to Eternity!

Cooper comes home!

I finally had a minute to update my blog, and I really shouldn't be doing it now either, I should be resting! Having a new baby home doesn't really mean tons of sleep. But we are so unbelievably happy! We finally got to bring our sweet baby home from the hospital. It has been a long hard month, but we survived! The pictures show Cooper's journey to get big and come home from the hospital, the one at the very top is one I took today, so that is how big he is now. it is so nice to be home and together as a family again, I love getting to see Devin every day. It was killing me to be away from him. We bought a house in Gunnison and finished moving all of our stuff in last weekend. My mom came up and stayed with me for a few days and really helped me put my house together, I couldn't have done it without her. She has been an angel throughout all this and has taken off over two weeks of work to be with me over the past month, we have had a really fun time together I loved getting to see her so much. I love you Mom! Devin's parents have also been great to take care of Devin while I was up north! Now we are just home and loving life. I love waking up to the sweetest cutest little baby and taking care of him all day. I love being his Mommy! Since Cooper was born premature and it is coming onto RSV season we are homebound for the next 6 months until he is big enough to fight a sickness if he got one. So we are going to be home bodies for a little while, but after being away for a month I am just happy to have him home!
