The last month in a nutshell...

The last month has been crazy for us...oh wait, everyday is crazy for us! In just the last few weeks we...blessed Cade, I had a brother leave on a mission and of course..the holidays! Sorry for all the pictures but how do you just post a few?


I LOVE LOVE this beanie on Cade! It was supposed to go in his stocking but we couldn't wait that long...he has been wearing it all winter now!!


Every Christmas Eve we start our night out at the Bateman's for dinner and fun. This year we started a new tradition and decorated gingerbread houses! It was great fun..can't you tell by the look of Brocks hands...bless his heart!


Cade and his Grandpa chillin' in the recliner!!


We end the night at my mom and dad's to open the famous Christmas jammies!! This is Cade and his grandma ready to open their jammies...Cade is totally into it even though he is sleeping!


One handsome boy!!

Sorry there are no pictures of Cades blessing...the pictures are being dumb and I an't get them to upload?? But we have had a great couple of weeks!! Hope everyone had a great Christmas! Happy New Year to you all!!

Zoo Lights...

Last night I told Brock that I wanted to either go to Temple Square or Zoo Lights before there is snow on ground and it is too bitterly cold to take our baby outside. So we decided that we would go to zoo lights...and it was a good choice. It was so much fun and not too cold. If you are looking for some good lights...I would recommend it! I can't wait for next year so that Cade will actually enjoy them and the animals.

This is me and Cade at the front gate of the zoo! Look at those chubby cheeks and double chin...do you think that my baby is getting enough to eat?!?

This is how Cade enjoyed the night...isn't his little bear snow suit so cute!

Our Sweet Baby...

I know that I am totally lame at getting some pictures of my sweet baby on the blog! Our old Internet was HORRIBLE so I canceled it and got the good stuff so now we will try and keep everyone more updated. There are going to be alot of pics...sorry about that but I have to share. So here are the details....our sweet little boy Cade was born on October 6th! I can't believe that he is almost 2 MONTHS old...CRAZY...where does time go? Anyway, he weighed 6 pounds 15 ounces and was 19 inches long. Getting him here was not horrible or easy for that matter...we are just so happy that he is here. He is FANTASTIC baby! I couldn't ask for better. He is an EXCELLENT sleeper and loves to be loved on. I hope everyone is doing good and I hope you enjoy the pics of my sweet babe! The first three are of him in the night he was born and the last three are taken since he has been home!

ONE proud papa!!!

Isn't he HANDSOME!!
