The Lillywhites Blog (Cody and Kiara)

Cody and I got to celebrate our first Christmas together this year! It's kinda crazy to think that next year it won't just be the two of us. But this year was lots of fun and we were both spoiled rotten!  We got matching Christmas Eve PJs  Cody was most excited about his  socks and toothbrush from Santa (I'm not making this up, that's what he said)  I was excited to get an iTunes  gift card and new socks  This was Cody's "big" gift from me. A blanket with pictures of us.  Cody got me a mother wolf with her child I love them! I had to post this picture because  Cody looked hilarious with his gifts (He was wearing his new hat, sweatpants, shoes, with his blanket and 409) We had an amazing time together for Christmas!

We recently went to Texas to visit Cody's family! It was lots of fun!  We enjoyed hanging out and getting to know them better! We got to do many things with them that I sadly didn't get pictures of all of it. But we all went to a place called Moody gardens, where I got a ton of pictures. It was lots of fun!  Here is the whole family in front of one of the  pyramids at Moody gardens. Cody and I in front of the bats inside the rain forest pyramid They also had a place called Ice-Land It was SUPER cold.  Here is a cute pic of our nephews and niece.  Cody went on a Ropes course with his sister, brother, and one of our nephews Here he is on one of the ledges. We really enjoyed our stay with  these amazing people!

So the last 7 months have been amazing! Cody and I found out in August that we were expecting! We are so excited to welcome a little child into our forever family! We are due at the beginning of May!  By the way did I mention we are having a little BOY! We are super excited to  welcome him in May!

When I was younger I thought that people who "fell in love" so fast where crazy. How can you know that you want to be with them after only a few weeks. It's crazy! Right? But I grew up and found that it's not that crazy. When it's right the Lord will let you know. And that's exactly what happened with Cody and I. Cody and I (Kiara) met about a year ago. We both were new freshmen to BYU-I. We dated for about a month and knew that we wanted to spend forever together. On April 17th of this year we decided to make that wish come true. We were sealed for time and all eternity in the Louisville Kentucky Temple. I'm so grateful that we did. These last 7 months have been crazy and amazing! I couldn't imagine spending forever with anyone else. Well that's a little about us! We can't wait to see what the future holds!
