Valentines Day and Kora's First Beach trip!

For Valentine's Day Cody, Kora and I went to our family beach cabin. We were joined by the Sweatman family also. It was a fun weekend of laughing, games and nice weather. It was exciting to take Kora to the cabin for the first time as it is my favorite place in the whole world and I know we will have many fun family memories there in the years to come.

Sunriver

We took Kora for her first vacation! We spent a long weekend in Sunriver with the whole Weso family. We had a blast! We snowshoed, rode bikes, found a place to sled off the side of the road, played lots of games, and relaxed around the cabin. It was a great weekend.

Kora is growing so fast!

Hey ya'll! Thought I better get this thing updated and also commit to adding pics of some upcoming exciting events! Kora is now over 7 weeks old. It is hard to believe that she has been in our lives now (well, externally) for almost two months. We are loving every minute of getting to know her. She is smiling now and even "cooing" and squeeling in delight at us. She just keeps getting cuter every day! Here is a pic that was from a few weeks ago. It is hard to capture her smile in a picture, but I will hopefully have some to share soon.

This weekend we will head out to Sunriver for a fun long weekend with my family. We are super excited to take Kora on her first vacation! The following weekend Kora will be dedicated at our church. We are looking forward to this event. While Kora is already commited to the Lord and we have accepted our responsibilty as parents to be an example to her and lift her up it will be nice to acknowledge that in front of our church family. THEN, the weekend after that we will spend 4 days at our family beach cabin! I am SOOO excited to take her there. I grew up going to the beach and in our family cabin and I have always looked forward to taking my kids there one day...and that day is finally here!! YAY!

Baby Kora and Snow!!

It has been a while since I last posted anything...I've been a little busy :) We welcomed baby Kora Lynn Meyer on Monday December 8, th at 7:48pm. She is absolutely beautiful and we are loving every minute of getting to know her. Cody is the best Dad in the world like I knew he would be and I can just tell that she is going to be a little daddy's girl. Here are a few pictures of her as well as the house in the first snow this winter...who would of thought we would be trucking through snow to get to church for the first time when Kora is just 6 days old!?! What fun though! Thank you everyone for all your thoughts and prayers during this time, we are very appreciative.

Progress on the House

Here are a few updated photos of the house. Since my last picture updates we have completed getting the front porch and walkway in and most of the siding. This weekend my project is to get more flowers planted and Cody is going to work on getting more siding done.

23 Weeks!

For those of you who have been asking, here is finally a belly shot. Tomorrow I will be 23 weeks along. Baby girl and I are doing really well. I started to feel her kicks last week and Cody has even been able to feel them as well! She is growing! We are starting to get things set up for her little corner of our master bedroom, I will try and post pictures when that starts to get more developed.
