Happy Thanksgiving!

So much has been going on this month... For starters Ms. Sophia Bair drove me and her poor mother crazy this month. My bestie Melissa was due on November 19th. With her first she went early and she started with contractions really early this time around. Everyone figured we would have our little bundle way before Thanksgiving... But while she came early she decided to hold out and show up on the 18th - after induction!

Regardless of how much I (and I am sure her mom and dad) wanted her here earlier she is a blessing that we can certainly be thankful for this year.

Happy Birthday Sophia!



Secondly - so glad that are friends and family don't hate us! My sister finally came for a visit (with her work schedule and mine it doesn't happen very often). While my sister was visiting, our friend Jason came over to kindly help Brian re-roof our kitchen (not easy or fun work!). Meanwhile Jimmy decided to get a very contagious - food posioning like - flu... Only he'd had a flu shot. I didn't realize how bad it was going to be and let all these people in my home. Every single one of us got sick... A lot.

We are real sorry and are really glad you still like us.

Getting ready for the Thanksgiving Day throw down! Jimmy ate about 2 bites of food and then ditched us. But don't worry - I represented at the table for the two of us.

My first cherry pie... Turned out pretty well! My first pumpkin... well, it was edible if just a little burnt. My mom took a look at this pie and says - I thought the top pieces were supposed to be weaved in and out... Yes they are. In the picture on the box. I didn't make the pie that's in the picture on the box. I am going to assume the person who made the pie in the picture on the box got paid... Until then - this is how I roll.

The family Thanksgiving evening hanging out. Thankful for my boys!
After Thanksgiving we came back into town so we could make Lockland's 3rd birthday bash. Much fun was had!

Jimmy shows off his 2nd cool dino tattoo. He quit playing musical chairs to get the tattoo. Definitely a fan.
Our gamer... We don't really have any video games in the house and whenever Jims gets the chance its like he would take kids OUT to get to the DS or Wi or computer or what have you. Obviously the coolest thing he has EVER done.

Thanks to our awesome families (by blood and by choice) for taking such great care of us. We love you!
