Kora is 12 weeks

I haven't updated in awhile and realized how much she has changed since I last put pictures on here. Life has been so amazing now that Kora is here and my everyday activities are different. I don't even now where to begin. She has started sleeping through most of the night now and gets up anywhere from 3:00-6:00. I have heard so many stories about kids not sleeping well, we are truly thankful that she has done so well. She is eating great as you can see and haven't had any problems in that department either. I am sure when I go back to teaching it will be a challenge to pump and feed when I am home, but I am going to do my very best for her. Anyways, I have tried to post as many pics as I can over the last month so you can see Kora up to date.

The picture above is the first time in her Bumbo and wearing her sunglasses as well.
After her dedication ceremony at church we tried to get a few pictures of her, but she was so tired. She didn't really like her bonnett that I got for her either, it had this spretty cross on the side and I really thought it made the outfit, but I am learning very quickly she calls the shots on what "she" likes.


She finally passed out on the couch after eating a little. I just love those lips and really want to snuggle with her all the time if I could. :)

She loves "tummy time" on her baby einsten play set. She can hold her head up really good now and looks around while holding it up. She was taking a break in the picture above.



She also loves her bath time. She is so content just to sit there and let me wash her. The only part she hates is the cold air from the bath to the towel.


We spent Father's Day at Steven's parents house in Borger and Steven loved that Kora wore her "I LOVE DADDY" shirt. To be honest it was his request that she wear it. So spoiled already...Daddy that is.


This is her first smile caught on camera. She is quick and I had to take several to finally capture it. She loves for you to talk to her right now, it makes her giggle and smile. I love when she trys to talk and mostly makes "o" sounds with her mouth puckered.


This is my favorite picture after her bath.

We went to see my dad and family for July fourth weekend. This is my mamaw holding Kora. She had such a fun time getting to spend the day with her.


My dad and Kora just hangin' out together. We found a picture of my dad when he was a baby and kora has his cheeks and sweet little nose I think. I guess that would mean I do too. LOL

This is my Nana with Kora and she had such a great time with her as well. Kora liked being held out so she could see everyone and pose for pictures of course.




Here she is on her 4th of July outfit. We were on our way to the Fair on the Square in Canyon. We watched the parade and shopped at the vendors. Kora reccieved her first bracelet and necklace. We had so much fun!!
So far I must say being a mom is an adventure everyday and I never imagined it changing me so much, but it has and I am loving the changes so far. I truly think about her before myself and would rather play it safe than go, go go like I always have. She is precious and we feel so thankful to have her. I just pray we continue to have a great time and do the best we can!!

  1. She's so beautiful. Her cheeks remind me of Isaac's when he was a baby. Kiss on them now...they go away. :(
