Baby Tanner in 3D!

Last night, for date night, we went to Baby Waves and had a 3D Ultrasound done! It was so fun and we got a lot of great pictures of him! And we found out that he is still a boy! The ultrasound tech kept shaking my belly to get him to move around a little bit and when we were watching the DVD last night, you could totally tell when she was shaking him! SHAKEN BABY SYNDROME! HaHaHa!
We are getting so excited for this little man to get here! We are 32 weeks, so not much longer! We can't wait!

Giving us a cute little smile!

Check out those chubby cheeks! Don't you just want to squeeze them!

He did not like being shaken! I had to throw in one of his sad/mad faces!

This one makes his nose look HUGE and misshapen... but it was a good view straight on of his little face!

Ohio Baby Shower

Our really good friend here in Ohio, Rosemary, planned and threw us a baby shower here, too! She and Tom were working really hard together to keep it a secret... but I ended up finding out! It turned out so fun! Ro and her mom did so much work to throw it together and everyone really enjoyed it! Ro is quite the "party thrower" so I know I shouldn't have been surprised by how much work she had done! She made a really yummy lunch and planned some really fun games! Not that Tanner wasn't already spoiled... he got some more really cute stuff!

These are the invitations she sent out! Aren't they so cute! (She knew we really liked monkeys!)

Rosemary made a cute Diaper Cake

and an adorable Diaper 3 Wheeler! She is so creative!

Opening all the fun gifts that Tanner got! People, again, were so generous! He got a lot of really cute stuff!

Most of the friends that came to the shower!

All the yummy food! We had soup, Chicken Sandwiches and Strawberry Preztel jello, and some yummy punch!

Rosemary even planned some games to involve "Daddy"! We played a game where Tom had answered some questions before everyone got there and later, everyone else was asked the same questions to see "How Well They Knew Daddy"! And she put together a "Daddy Tool Belt" with all the essential things for a new daddy! Super cute idea!

We also played a fun game where we all had a string necklace on, with one safety pin. We weren't allowed to say the word "Baby" and if someone caught us, they took our pin away! Whoever ended up with the most safety pins at the end, won a prize! (of course that was Tom!)

We really had such a fun time at this shower! We have great friends here in Ohio!

Carter Baby Shower

Ok, so I got the pictures from the Baby Shower that my family threw for us while we were in Utah, quite a while ago... I've just been a slacker about updating this blog! Anyway, here goes! This shower was the day after the one Tom's family threw for us and it was so much fun! So many of my family and friends were there and once again... Tanner got SPOILED! We had a yummy lunch, my sister in law, Ashlee, made a whole bunch of cute cookies and cupcakes and my sister JoDee planned some really fun games for everyone to play! And the big snow storm held off, until almost everyone had left and was hopefully home!

These are just some of the people that came to the shower and you can kind of see the cute decorations and the food spread!

My sisters Savana and JoDee, my cousin Kate and my Grandma Mecham!

My Grandma Carter and my aunt Sue! (and part of my good friend, Crystal Howe!)

Tom and I playing one of the two games that JoDee planned for the party. She melted different kinds of candy bars and put them in little diapers, and you had to smell it and guess what candy bar it was! Kind of grossed me out but it was a really fun game!

The second game... she had several different baby items in little brown paper bags and we had to touch and feel them and guess what they were! It was kind of hard!

Opening gifts! We got so many cute things and lot's of money and gift cards! We had to borrow an extra suitcase from my parents just to get all Tanner's gifts back to Ohio!

Some of the cute stuff Aunt Mallori and Aunt Savana gave him!

I put this picture on because it's a good one of my sister in law, Ashlee, standing on the side in the grey sweater! Doesn't she have such a cute bump! She is due with a little girl 2 weeks after us! (and my Mom is sitting next to Ashlee, in the pink shirt!)

And here, Tom is modeling one of the cute hooded bath towels that JoDee made for us! They turned out so cute! (I've since had fun making several more!!!)

Cahoon Baby Shower

A few weeks ago, we were able to go home to Utah for a week and both of our families threw us a baby shower! It was so fun and our sweet little Tanner got SPOILED!
Here are some pictures of the Baby Shower that Tom's family threw for us. The decorations were so cute, the games were fun and we just had a great time!!!

We drank out of cute Mason Jars, decorated all cute!

Yummy flavored waters and a green Slush!

Cute Mustache cupcakes

Green fudge, blue cake pops, and cupcakes

The kitchen all decorated!

More decorations and game prizes!

My mom, nephew Brody, and sisters JoDee, Savana, and Mallori!

Me!

Tom and my dad were hanging out downstairs with the rest of the "boys"! It was such a fun night! We each had to use our "mustache" if we wanted to say anything that had to do with "baby" or "Tanner"! If you got caught without your mustache, you were out of the game. We also played a fun candy bar game, a baby food game, kind of an "I Spy" game and then everyone had to cut a piece of yarn the length they thought I was around the belly! I'm sad to say that my mom's string was nearly as long as I am tall!!! lol! It was pretty funny!!!

We really had a great time! As soon as I get pictures from the shower my family had for us, I'll post them!

We are so excited for this sweet baby boy to come into our lives! We are down to just over 11 weeks left!!!

Our New Year's News!

Well... We went back to the doctor on Dec. 27th for another ultrasound and we found out.....

Our little Tanner Loel Cahoon is on his way!!! We couldn't be more excited! It was another long ultrasound and I thought the tech was going to give up. After about 45 minutes, he finally decided to cooperate. The tech commented that he had really made her work for that and over the next 10 minutes he wasn't shy about showing us at all! She said, "Ok! Now he is just showing off!!!"
We are so excited and we can't wait for the next 4 months to fly by so we can meet this little man!
We love you Tanner!

18 1/2 weeks!

Well, we went to the doctor the other day to find out if we were having a boy or a girl... We got a lot of great pictures of the baby, but he/she was moving around so much the ultrasound tech couldn't get a good shot of you-know-what... so, we still don't know! We'll give the baby a few more weeks to get a little bigger, then we'll try again! Can't wait to know for sure!

Baby Stuff!

So, for Christmas this year, we decided to just get baby furniture. We found a great Black Friday deal at BabiesRus on a very nice set of nursery furniture! We got there at 4:00am, got right up to the desk to make our order, ended up only 6th in line for the big 5:00 sale and got the only set they had in stock! Our friends helped us get it the next day and we got it all set up! We are very pleased with our purchase! Now I just wish we knew if we are having a boy or a girl so we could finish decorating!!!!

Changer Combo

I also found this really cute Pack and Play with a bassinet and changer on it that I really liked! I had to call all over for it and drive nearly 45 minutes to get it.... but I'm very happy that I found that too!!! Things are coming together very nicely! We are having so much fun getting ready for this baby! We can't wait for him/her to get here!!!
