A New Normal.

Well, I am finally blogging again. It is not only hard to find time to sit and blog... it has been hard to gather my thoughts long enough to get them out! Here are some recent pictures of all the boys.

The big boys just can't seem to get enough of our newest addition...

He still gets lot of hugs and kisses. Whether he likes it or not.

So what's been going on in the Davis home lately? Well, a lot of these are being changed and washed...

And no, that's not all thats been going on. Although I do feel that way some days.

We are adjusting to Kohen being a part of the family and our daily routine. It gets easier and more "normal" every day. A new normal I guess. The big boys go about their business most of the time. They check on Kohen on and off during their many adventures. Making sure he's still in his glider or bouncy seat. I assure them he's not going anywhere but they still like to check on him.

One of their favorite games...

They love to hide! And our suitcases have made excellent hiding spots as of late. Thanks to Daddy moving the suitcases into their closet instead of ours, this gets to be a happy game where spankings are not involved.

Kohen does this a lot... Isn't he just beautiful?! (Sigh.)

He also wakes up and hangs out too. In the last week he has started "talking" (as we call it) with his eyes and whole face. At times it seems he's going to burst out with words and then... he doesn't. Not yet anyway. He smiles and coos though and it is too sweet!


A couple of weeks ago we went to visit family and attend Brandon's sister's wedding. That weekend while we were gone, it snowed here in Beaumont! Seriously! This is the second year in a row! And even though we missed out on the Beaumont snow, we did get to see some flurries where we were.



The big boys had a blast in the "snow". You can barely see it in the pictures but it was actually snowing on us. Just the usual Texas "snow" that melts before it hits the ground. We had heard from the weather man that we could see 2-3 inches of snow that afternoon and so I told the boys that maybe after nap time there would be more snow to play in. Well, I should have kept my mouth shut on that one! The first thing T did when he woke up was go to the window to look for the snow. "Mommy, (big sigh) there's no snow." It was sad. But he got over it within a matter of seconds with Aunt JooJoo (B's littlest sis) there to distract him. I praise God for Aunts!

I didn't get many pictures at the wedding because my batteries died shortly after we got there and before the ceremony even started! But here are a few I did get...

3 of my handsome men! As you can see by the look on Pey's face, the wedding was right about nap time.

Man, I have a good looking husband!

Kohen spent almost the entire afternoon/evening tucked away in my sling. He made it out for a couple pictures and was held by very few people. After all, he was 3 weeks old that day! He liked his cozy spot...


Well. I am going to wrap this post up and head to bed! Maybe I will get around to blogging again sooner rather than later. Hmm... I guess we'll see.

Kohen


It's been 3 weeks and a day since this beautiful baby entered our lives. Kohen Miles was born on November 14, 2009 at 3:14am. He weighed in at 9lbs 9oz and was 22in long. He is beautiful. He has all 10 fingers and 10 toes, I checked (since Nanny and Uncle Jeff weren't there to count them). He likes life outside of mommy's tummy and I am so glad! Because I would hate to try to put him back!

He had and still has a full head of dark brown hair and blue eyes. He reminds me of his brothers at times with different faces he makes. But over all, he's just Kohen.

Big brothers Tristan and Peyton are so proud! They love their Kohen.

In the hospital Tristan asked Kohen while holding him for the first time, "What do you think about your mom?" He often tells me "Mom, I like Kohen."

Peyton says when referring to holding Kohen, "Inna hold it!" He also likes to point him out any time he sees him, "It's Tonen!" (yes, Tonen) And every time Kohen makes any noise P says, "Bless you!"

Life with 3 is fun and exhausting! But most of all just so full! I sleep when I can and shower when they sleep. So often I decide to go to bed without a shower because sleep is takes precedence over cleanliness in some cases. Brandon and I have already expressed to each other that we must be crazy and in the same breath say "But I love it."

I would love to blog more and post more pictures because he has changed so much already but naptime has just ended and I have little boys coming in saying, "Good morning Mommy!" (it's nearly 4 in the afternoon) So this is it for now. Until next time... this is Sleepless in Beaumont signing off.
