Look at me now!!

Cole turned 8 months old today and I found myself looking back on the last 8 months with mixed emotions.  First, I cant believe how fast these months have gone.  Second, I am continually amazed at Gods goodness to us.  And finally, third, I cant believe how BIG my littlest chicken is...

As I thought back on these past eight months some pictures came to mind that I thought I needed to share, so here you go...



First time seeing little number 6.  What felt like an eternity, in reality, a few LONG hours.


Cole at his lowest weight.  2 pounds 4 ounces.  This one is still hard to look at.


Snuggling for the first time.  1 Week old


Daddy holding Cole for the first time, they could not take their eyes off each other.


Taking him home!!!  Such a little peanut, he's almost out grown this preemie car seat.


My first picture of ALL my chickens in one place!!!


Cole, the day after his due date.  7 pounds 7 ounces.  Little did I know that in a few short months I would have this...





Yup, 10 whole pounds heavier than he was on his due date.  And, slightly more alert.
Where has the time gone...
