Our little Cohen is finally here!

Our handsome little Cohen has finally come and Josh and I couldn't be happier. Josh is the happiest daddy and is doing such a great job in taking care of our new little man. I myself couldn't be more pleased. Although at times being a new mom can be so stressful, I couldn't begin to imagine what i would do without him. He brings so much purpose to life.

So I know i have been slacking but i promise to add more to my blog when i start to get the hang of things. I thought I would let everyone know how everything went with the labor and all. I was admitted into labor and delivery at 7:30 am. Within that next half hour they had already induced me with the patossin. To make a long story short, in eight long hours I had only dialated from a 31/2 to a four. Being on the highest dossage of patossin at that point, I knew that there would probably be no progress from there. So my docter decided at that point it would be best to go ahead and break my water. Within two hours after that, I had dialated from a four to a ten and before I knew it, our little Cohen was finally here! He was born on July 24, 2008 7 lbs. 11 ounces 19 inches. We couldn't have asked for more than to have a beautiful healthy baby boy. Josh and I feel that the lord has blessed us in so many ways to have Cohen in our lives. With the small time that we have been parents it has changed us for the better in so many ways.

Every year Josh and I look forward to going to the Cystic Fibrosis run with our family on behalf of our sweet little niece Gracie. We had so much fun, although I wasn't really able to do much it was fun watching all the little nieces go rock climbing, feed the animals, and play on the trails with thier bikes and scooters. I was finally able to get a picture of the two of us on here allthough it wasn't my favorite. When we get our camara in the near future I will be sure to add more.

Once again... this is me at 30 weeks.

8 months

Here I am at 8 months! I am feeling so much better and can't wait for the arrival of our little Cohen! Josh and I set up his crib and dresser and it looks so cute! I will post pictures as soon as we get a new camera, it will be very soon (hopefully). My sister Heidi took this picture of me and insisted that I post it on my blog. Thank you Heidi!
