Coby is One Month!

Last Thursday, Coby turned one month. It is so hard for us to believe as the time has gone by so fast. I think about all the things that I haven't done in a whole month: teach (at school that is), cook (maybe once or twice~ thanks to all who have taken care of us), sleep a whole night, gone on a date with just Alain (hopefully soon though), or taken a long shower (I am nervous the whole time that something will happen to Coby). It has been quite a month! We have learned so much about ourselves and one another. If you want to learn a huge lesson in selflessness, have a baby~ they show you just how selfish you truly are~ and then they break you of it. God is so good to teach us this lesson in such a sweet and tender way! We couldn't love Coby any more than we already do! We think he is just perfect!

In honor of his first month, Jess and I had a photo shoot here at the house for Coby yesterday. I wanted to dress him in the same outfit he wore home from the hospital so we could compare and see just how much he has grown. Coby did not disappoint~ he was full of smiles and other fun faces for the entire photo shoot (and is pretty much anytime Auntie Jessie is around). Here are a few of the pics we took! Enjoy:


This is my absolute favorite! He loves to fist his hands- he is so strong!



I couldn't resist his cuteness! I could kiss his face all day long!


He has serious faces as well~ still so cute though!

Okay, this next one is not from the "photo shoot," but I couldn't resist posting it for y'all. This was Coby's response to finishing nursing- you might think he is asleep, but this was literally minutes before all the smiley pics above- he is just demonstrating what hard work nursing is! I have to love it!
