Christmas!

This year we spent Christmas in Eaton on the Cozzens' farm. We had so much fun as Tiernan is just starting to understand how this whole Christmas thing works. By the end he was helping Ethan and I open gifts...but it took us forever to open gifts because of course he wanted to play with each one. :) It's fun to experience Christmas through the eyes of a child!

Monster Truck from Grandma and Grandpa Cozzens

He always takes all of his stuffed animals and bites their noses.

John Deere dump truck from the aunties and uncles-he kept putting all of his other toys in the back

That morning we ate breakfast at our house. Yes, people, I actually cooked pancakes, bacon, and eggs. (I told Ethan not to get used to it!) Then we opened gifts from my side of the family.

"Choo choo" from great auntie Debbi

See and Say from Dale, Vera, and Lauren

Fancy new duds for Christmas Eve service

New Ultrasound Pics

Here are the latest pictures of Baby Cozzens. They are a little hard to see, so hopefully you have good imaginations! The Dr. had me do an additional ultrasound because my placenta was a little low lying. Thankfully it has moved out of the way, so unless there are complications during labor, I shouldn't have to have a C-section. Yahoo! However, they discovered that he has the cord wrapped around his neck. The Dr. said that this is very common (about 25% of all babies) but it's still hard not to worry. So we continue saying prayers that the rest of this pregnancy will go smoothly-I can't believe I'm in my third trimester already!

Hopefully you can read all of the typed lettering on the pictures.

Thanksgiving week

We spent Thanksgiving this year in GJ. Tiernan had so much fun playing with his cousins...and I'm sure my parents were excited to see us go so they could have a quiet house to themselves again!

GREAT aunt Debbi got some great shots of Tiernan-thanks Deb!

I was not fast enough to catch Tiernan and Libby smiling (and still!) at the same time...

Tiernan loves his daddy

He loved sitting in the loader (Ahhh! I'll be so embarrassed when I discover that's not the real name of this piece of equipment...I need to study up for my house full of boys!)
