Finally, Pictures!!



I finally was able to get my pictures from my camera to my computer! Cohlee is now 5 weeks old!! I know that is still so little, but I can't believe it has already been that long. She had her 4 week checkup this last week. She weighed 9 lbs, 3 oz and she is 21 1/2 inches long. She gained over 2 pounds and she grew a whole inch in two weeks!! She is a little oinker. I can see that her arms are getting a little chunk on them and she has a cute double chin (like her momma, but mine is not so cute!) She is still waking up only once a night. She doesn't mind taking baths until I pull her out of the warm water, then she screams until the towel is wrapped around her. I must say, it has been a lot easier going to four kiddos than I thought it would be. I know once she is awake most of the time, it will be alot more challenging. I am enjoying the easiness of having her sleep 80% of the time. I got her pictures done by Elements Photography when she was two weeks old. I need to go pick up my CD and then I can post some of the super cute pics. So stay tuned!


They grow out of their clothes so fast, so I try to take a picture of her in each outfit. Here is some of them. I didn't mean to put the picture of my mom in there, but she is a cutie also!


Cohlee's first bath. She was 6 days old!

Happy Birthday Weston!!




Weston is finally 7!! He has been looking forward to his birthday for the past 11 months!! I can't believe that 7 years have gone by so fast. He had a huge birthday party!! We rented a big water slide. I bet there was about 30 kids. CRAZINESS!!! The kids all had a ton of fun and no major injuries! Weston got a ton of great gifts. Thanks to everyone who came.

Life is Great!! (at least today)

Every thing is going just dandy here in the Palmer household! Cohlee is such a good baby!! She will be 3 weeks old tomorrow. I weighed her last night and she is over 8lbs!! Last night was the first night she slept through the night. I put her down at 10:30 and she slept until 6:30. I know, I am the luckiest girl! I don't know how I got such a good baby. Even after she ate at 6:30 this morning she went back to sleep until 10:30. We all love her so much and can't even imagine life without her. It is so fun to dress her up. She has only spit up a few times, but everytime she does, I get excited because I get to put a new outfit on her. Is that pathetic or what?

Ok, so I guess I am not the luckiest girl cuz my dumb camera broke. How did it brake, you ask? Well the 2 year old and 4 year old got ahold of it and had their own little photo session with it. That is why you shouldn't leave a camera within reach of the little rugrats. Lesson learned a bit too late. At least I have the SD card. I need to get the pictures transferred to a disk so I can post some updated pictures of my cute babe. Anyhoo, that is why you are seeing a pictureless post. I apologize and I am working on it.

Wooo-Hoooo!!!


We finally did it!! Or I should say Cade finally did it!! He is officially potty trained!! I only had to endure 10 days of having three children in diapers. What did the trick, you ask? Well, my hubbie decided enough was enough and started using "tough love". Everytime he would go in his underwear or pull up, he would get in big trouble and be in time out forever!! I did not agree with it at all and I told my husband it was so not going to work. Well....2 days later, miraculously, Cade started going on his potty!! So now my husband thinks he is the bomb. He says it was the tough love. I say good for you, now you have two more kids that you can potty train. So no more of Cade sitting on the potty for 3 hours and then falling asleep. Yeah for me!!
