Thankful

Happy Belated Thanksgiving to you all!  We've been really busy  in this month of November, enjoying an extended visit from Nana and then a visit from Papa and Aunt "Do-do" as well.  We enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving feast prepared by my mom (and a tiny bit by me) with our good friends Eric, Laura and Katie.  Brie and Katie had the BEST time playing together--they are just too cute!
 Ready for Turkey Dinner!  Brie & Katie sat by themselves at Brie's little table.  They thought they were hot stuff :).

And after getting their fill of turkey, they worked hard to destroy Brie's nice, clean room :).

Caleb turned 8 weeks old on Thanksgiving--I can hardly believe my little man is already 8 weeks old!  He's growing and changing each day--so fun to watch!

I am so thankful we were able to enjoy having my mom here for two weeks before my dad and sister arrived for the week of Thanksgiving.  She was able to spend lots of time cuddling Caleb and playing with Brie.  We packed lots of fun things into those two weeks including family portraits, two trips to the outlet mall, visiting Santa, a trip to the zoo, and lots of trips to the park and bike rides around the block!  I'm so blessed to have a wonderful mom who was so eager and willing to come spend time with us and help me adjust to life with two kiddos.

 I love, love, love this :)


 Even monkey visited Santa :)

 Family of four--wow!


Me and mom :)

After our two weeks with nana, papa and aunt Re arrived.  The weather turned very cold for down here, with a couple of days in the 30s, so we weren't able to get out and do much, but we enjoyed reading, playing play-doh, watching Frosty the Snowman, Skype-ing with Uncle Justin, Aunt Kat, Ella & Olivia, and just hanging out.  Brie also transitioned to her "big-girl" bed and she's done great with it so far!  
We have much to be thankful for this year!  Our families; our health; our beautiful, vibrant, full-of-sass Brie; our adorable, cuddly, changing every day Caleb; and our friends and church community to name a few.  We have been richly blessed this year!!
