thankful

We had a wonderful time visiting my in-laws in Homerville this week. We came home this morning and then had dinner with my family this evening. It feels so good to be home and sleeping in our own beds tonight. The Mayor was so happy to be back in his crib that when we put him down for his nap this afternoon, he laid completely out and let out a huge "ahhhhhhhh". That boy loves his bed.

But it was all worth it. We are so blessed to be so close to both families that we can see them both in the same day for a holiday. And we are so blessed to have such a healthy son, who although he does love his crib, is adaptable enough to deal with sleeping in a pack-n-play for 5 nights. Every morning when he woke up in Homerville, he asked for his MeMe and Big Daddy. Then he would knock on their bedroom door to wake them up. He loved playing with his cousins Trey and Luke (who The Mayor calls "Buke"...we are still working on our L's). It was a fantastic Thanksgiving.

I wish I had kept up with the blog while on vacation, but to be honest, I was so exhausted! Keeping up with a 2 year old while pregnant and not in your own home...wore...me...out. I am so tired, I don't even have the energy to get out my Christmas decorations tonight. It will have to wait until tomorrow. Here are just a few photos from our trip this week. Happy Thanksgiving!

"playing Wii"...he just kept swinging his arm. He also started cutting his 2 year molars,

so he did a lot of chewing on his fingers
