First Sponge bath home.....

Karleigh wanted to give Kambria a bath.  So here she is helping me sponge bath her.  She didn't understand why we couldn't put her in the tub.  But she had fun combing her hair and getting her all washed and smelling good!

Later we put on this cute pink and brown outfit that Chad's sister got her it.  Karleigh came out and told me that Kambria looked like a boy.  I said what why she said her hair is like Daddy and Colton and Preston and her has boy clothes.  I had to chuckle.  It is funny how just putting on different color of clothes it does make babies look either boy or girl.  Anyway she is cute and Karleigh can't get enough of her.

Kambria Jane Cooper

Kambria Jane was born Jan. 10, 2011.  I was scheduled for a c-section on Thursday but woke Monday morning around 2am to contractions 5 min. apart.  The Dr. told me if they were 5 min apart for and hour to come in.  Well I called the hospital at 4am and they said to drink some water and take some tylenol wait half and hour and see.  Well we headed for the hospital at 5 am.  I was not dialated at all but contractions were 2 min. apart.  So my Dr. said to go ahead and prep me we were having a baby.  I went in to the OR at 7:30 and she was born at 7:52.  Weighing in at a whopping 8lbs. 2oz. and 19 1/2 in. . she is my biggest baby.  Preston was 7lbs.2oz and Karleigh and Colton were 6lbs.and little more.  Needless to say we were surprised!

She is the best baby!  She hardly ever cries and she is very loved by her brothers and sister.  We couldn't be happier!

The beloved Bat Cave

Christmas this year was so much fun.  We started a new tradition.   The baby Jesus received 3 gifts so that is what we receive.  One from Santa, One from Mom and Dad and one from Brothers and Sisters. I am a bit ashamed to admit this but This was REALLY hard for me.  I am the one to go crazy at Christmas.  Seeing Vision's in my head of each child having a pile of presents just for them.  Through out the shopping season I would find myself saying oh get that or get this and then saying wait they have their three gifts.  It was hard but what a blessing it was.  The kids loved their gifts and we spent way less than usual.  The kids didn't get overwhelmed and they play with everything.

The boys received Ipod Touches.  Yes I am probably the only person on earth that would buy a 4 almost 5 year old a I touch but if you know my Colton you understand. If you don't know him and you know me than you also understand.  Karleigh got a bitty baby, with matching jammies.  She was in heaven.

They all recieved pillow pets from Grandpa Wilcock.  It was funny to be up there opening presents because there are 10 kids and they all got pillow pets. Was a fun surprise.


We were blessed abundantly this year and have so much to be thankful for.  We wish you all a great new year.
