Hayden Tyler Cahoon was born December 28th at 12:44 A.M. He weighed 7 lbs 9 oz and is 20 inches long.  We are both doing great and were able to come home tonight.  We love him so much and just can't get enough.  Here are a few pictures, definitely more will come along with how things went!

Christmas

Well, we didn't get our little guy for Christmas this year but we still had an amazing Christmas.  Tylers' mom was able to come up and spend Christmas with us.  We got lots of great stuff and want to thank everyone for being so great to us and we love you all.  We had a great Christmas and were glad we were able to spend it with Lori, Trevor, Brittany.  Merry Christmas!  

Our 2nd Christmas being married.  Can't believe it!!

39 wks

So this is me 39 wks 1 day with 6 days to go.  Still just waiting it out hoping he will arrive soon.  Retaining water like crazy, I can't believe how big my ankles and feet and calves are getting it's insane, never thought they could get this big.

The Polar Express

So there is this family in Lindon that I have mentioned before that has a train that you can ride and it goes through their yards, they have it at Halloween and Christmas time.  We went as a family tonight and it is so neat and such a fun experience.  They have music from the polar express playing while you ride along with scenes set up along the path from the movie, until you stop at the North Pole.  We got to visit Santa at the North Pole, then left and were able to listen to music about Christ and see pictures of him throughout his life.  If you have never been it is a fun family activity.  Tyler wasn't able to go with us because we had lots going on today and he hadn't gotten any sleep, so we missed him. 

Waiting to be seated on the Train. Lincoln was so excited to ride on the train.

Welcome Home Sister Ward

We have had a great week so far.  My sister Kelsey was serving a mission in Oakland California and Came home Wednesday.  We were able to go pick her up from the airport and it was so neat to see her again after 19 months.  Welcome Home Kelsey, were glad your back!!

Waiting patiently for her to arrive.

There she is!!!  She stood at the top of the stairs and poked her head down several times before walking down the stairs,to make sure we were there.  We all started crying when we saw her!

The whole family is together again until alex leaves in the summer of 2011.

We had a great American dish, roast, mashed potatoes,homemade rolls.  Kelsey wanted a good home cooked meal, instead of beans and rice and tortillas.  Were so glad your back kels!

Tyler is 25

Wow I can't believe Ty is 25, well he will be this Thursday December 16th.  We had a birthday celebration for him tonight because of all of the upcoming events this next week.  He chose Taco Salad and German Chocolate Cake for his birthday dinner.  It was very delicious.  My family and Tyler's Dad were able to come join in on the Birthday Celebration.  Tyler got some nice things.. My family all went in on a Desk that he has been wanting and very much needed for school work, and then an outfit from me and baby. (*we went in on the desk also..it's a nice desk!)  Can't wait to get it set up.  It was a very fun evening.  We also were had fun making posters and signs for Kelsey who is coming home this wednesday.  Hooray can't hardly believe that it has been 19 months and she will be home in 2 1/2 days that is so crazy.  So many fun events.

Lincoln was so sad because he didn't get any presents so ty let him help him open his!  What a great Uncle

Our awesome one Ginormous Candle, we didn't have any small ones.  oops

Tyelr with his presents, Happy Birthday Honey. I love you

 

Work Christmas Party

Friday night was the annual USSynthetic Christmas party. We finally got to go this year along with the rest of my family. My dad, brother, brother-in-law and ty all work there, so much fun! It was fun to get dressed up for a night to go enjoy some fun entertainment. They served salad,rolls,turkey w/rice and veggies and then a mint chocolate cake or a pineapple/ mango cake. The entertainment for the evening was performed by a band called Local Grown, they were surprisingly really good. They also had a surprise gues joining them Ryan Shupe, from Ryan Shupe and the Rubberband. It was a very fun evening. The MC was Buddah from Fox 13 news and he was absolutely hilarous. They also put every employee's name into a bowl and drew out names and had people play the games from minute to win it, sadly none of our family got their names drawn but it was still super hilarious to watch those people try to complete the tasks.

This is my brother Alex and another employee Brandon.

The whole gang.  Minus Al's and Brandon's dates ( they couldn't come)

Pedi/Mani

Alright so yes I know this is a horrible horrible picture of my chubby/fat feet but I had to show everyone what an amazing job tyler did at painting my toe nails.  My feet have started retaining water and it sucks if i stand for too long or if they aren't up they get super fat and it's so sad.  One of the lovely joys of being pregnant.  Last night we had a mani/pedi night and watched Fred Clause.  It was so much fun.  He trimmed my toe nails and finger nails and then painted my toenails and then massaged lotion on my feet and hands/arms!  What an amazing husband.  I kind of feel bad because I have a foot phobia and I hate feet, he always wants me to rub them but it just gags me.  Our trade last night, I made him dinner and rubbed his back while he painted and massaged my hands/feet!  I love you ty, you are the greatest!

Hair Dresser

So my husband is the greatest!  I have been so exhausted lately and so he has been my own personal hair dresser!! Saturday and Sunday he blew my hair dry and then straightened it.  Although i didn't get any pictures, because he wouldn't let me.  And then I forgot to take a picture of my hair afterward.  It looked good I didn't even need to fix it. :D  I'm thinking I could get used to that!
