INTRODUCING...

CANNON CURTIS COSPER

BORN 4/24/08 @ 11:32 PM

8 LBS 7 OZ

21 1/2 INCHES LONG

He has quite a bit of dark hair and gorgeous long eyelashes. He is such a sweet baby, hardly crying at all. Labor went very well and Amanda did awesome.

Kylee loves her baby brother and just wants to hug him all the time.

Cannon looks a lot like his daddy.

I Love You!

Isn't being a mom the greatest? I got the cutest picture message on Saturday while out with some friends that just melted my heart and made me realize how blessed I am not only to be a mom but also to be married to a man who helps me remember how awesome being a parent really is. I just thought I'd share the picture with you, because it's too cute for words.

ONE WEEK!

Here's an update on the pregnancy...Baby Boy still hasn't made his debut. Today at the doctor I was dilated to a 3 1/2 and 100% effaced, so that was at least some progress. My blood pressure was 117/80 (one of the best yet). I really think it must be all your prayers keeping me and baby so healthy. I'm so thankful and blessed to have such wonderful people in my life. I would have never guessed I would make it full term with this pregnancy. My doctor really thinks he'll come any day now, but I'm thinking this child has his daddy's procrastinating spirit and is going to stay in there as long as he can. ;-)

So we may just have to give him a little motivation. If he doesn't decide to come by next Thursday the 24th, I will be induced. A week still sounds like forever, but at least I know there is an end in sight and he'll be here soon. I hope my Uncle Terrell doesn't mind sharing his birthday with his great nephew. The weird thing is no one guessed the 24th. I had lots of guesses for my due date (the 25th) and a lot for my birthday (the 13th), and pretty much every day in between, but no one guessed the 24th. I guess there is still the possibility that he'll hit one of the days in between.

Last night I dreamt my water broke and I was so upset when I woke up and it hadn't. I cried all morning. ;-) I'm just EXTREMELY ready for him to be here.

Kids Rooms

I promised I would post some pictures of Kylee's and the baby's room. I honestly haven't had much desire to decorate either of them as much as I would like. Especially the baby's room, but it's a start anyway. :)

You can't really tell by the picture but the walls are a really pretty, light pink and the decorations are a very dark brown.

Kylee in her big girl bed. She loves it, but has a hard time sleeping there lately. (Daddy spoils her and mommy is downstairs on the couch because it is the only place she can get comfortable.)

Like I said, not much to show in baby's room. I did get a cute crib set from my Aunt, but the picture doesn't do it justice either.

A Very Pregnant Birthday!

Well, I'm officially old. :) (I think I said that last year.) Although, I'm not as old as my Grandma Eisenbarth had me feeling (she thought I was turning 33...she had me confused with my sister-in-law...sweet, silly Grandma). But 28 seems old enough. I honestly can't believe I'm really 28. I don't feel a day over 20. Seriously!

We had such a great day. My birthday was Sunday, but the celebrating started on Friday and didn't stop until Sunday night. It was such an awesome weekend weather wise and we were able to get a babysitter both Friday and Saturday night, so I was privileged enough to get 2 DATES with my sweetheart. Curtis even took the trouble to borrow his brothers convertible and we drove around with the top down feeling young and carefree. It was awesome.

Saturday day we spent the whole day as a family just enjoying the weather and each other. Then Sunday we spent with the rest of my family and I honestly couldn't have asked for more (other than having my Grandma Hebdon, Aunt Myrna, Tonya, and other family members there who were just too far away, and maybe it would have been nice to not be as big as a house too).

Here are some pictures of the fun day on Sunday with the whole crew. I'm so blessed to belong to such a great family.

Look at the size of that belly!

Isn't Kylee so darn cute.

This cake was SO delicious. It had chocolate moose filling.

I loved how fun and happy the decorations were. Thanks Costco for a yummy cake!

FIRE!

(Believe it or not, I just barely missed blowing them all out. Pretty good for a very pregnant person.)

The kids enjoying the nice weather. Curtis always does such a great job playing with them.)

Isn't Kylee so cute! She loves her Aunt Em.
(Side note: White capri's may sound like a cute idea for a toddler...but they were only clean for about 10 minutes)

Better Late...

Better late than never, or so they say. Here are some pictures of Kylee in her Easter dress. We didn't have our camera unpacked yet, so they were just taken with my cell phone, so they really aren't the best pictures. Just picture her looking even prettier than these pictures show. :)

This picture is blurry because she is twirling in her dress. She is a real girl sometimes. Loves to be pretty and get dressed up and always has to have her accessories (necklaces and a purse and cell phone). She makes her mommy so proud.
