A Lot to be Thankful For

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! Here's a photo of our sweetie literally SURROUNDED by admirers. Wow- what a lot we have to be thankful for this year. Peter and I have been absolutely bursting with happiness this whole year. Not only do we have the most adorable, smart, energetic, fun,- shall I go on?- baby in the world, but we also have had such an amazing welcome home for our sweet baby from family and friends over the last couple of months. We have literally been swamped with well wishers and, of course, our little guy just soaks up all of the attention. Who wouldn't? We have had family member after family member come to spend time with our little one but this week was the first time we have taken him on a road trip. He was, of course, adored by all. We had turkey dinner with GParents Pete and Nancy and their whole clan and he had tons of fun being cute for them. And Nancy opened up her store (children's clothing) and we got the most adorable outfits for him to wear. He's so spoiled! And then GParents G and Mar had a welcome party for him and it was just so wonderful to see all of those people who followed along on our journey to Kaz actually get to meet our little guy. Literally, people who I didn't even think knew told me they were checking our blog multiple times a day to see the updates. And, after finally meeting him, they adored him almost as much as we do! And, as usual, I am in awe of my son and how well he is able to adapt. He was passed from person to person day after day this past week and complained not a bit- even though he yet again has a full body rash. As a matter of fact, I think he's a little sad that it's just us again. He's back to being stuck into the jumper when mom has to empty the dishwasher or take the laundry upstairs. Oh well, Christmas is right around the corner offering the opportunity to be fawned over yet again. I hope everyone's Thanksgiving was as wonderful as this one. Love to all at the start of this glorious holiday season. -m
BTW- people keep asking what I want for Christmas, and all I can say is "a girl". But in the meantime, here are the two most wonderful boys in my world wishing for you all to have a great week :-)
