Christmas and New Years Eve with the Davis family

Right after Mom and Charles left, Justin's family (Rick, Kim, Kevin and Cheryl) came for a visit. We got to extend our Christmas holiday and spend New Year's Eve with them. Once again, Cole was the main attraction.

He should love Santa, he got a
lot of presents for only being a
couple weeks old.

Dad got a manly diaper bag


Grandpa Rick and Cole.


Cole does have arms, he is just
wrapped up like a mummy in
his Miracle Blanket


Cole enjoyed his first Michigan
State football game with Mom
and Dad. Unfortunately, they lost
the bowl game.

Cole's cries.

Christmas with my mom and brother

Mom and Charles visited the first week we were home from the hospital and were able to enjoy our first Christmas with Cole. We all agreed, he was the best Christmas present we could have asked for.

Cole's first bath

Cole's first bath was really just a sponge bath, but nonetheless he did NOT enjoy it.














Peacefully sleeping, notice his crossed hands.

After 6 days in the hospital, we could finally go home with our son. This moment was a long time coming and we couldn't wait!

A very proud mom!

About 30 hours after arriving at the hospital, Cole finally arrived via c-section at 2:05am on Dec. 18th. He weighed 6 pounds, 14 ounces and was 20 1/2 inches long. He had a full head of hair and most everyone said he lookes like Justin.
