A very Uncooperative 9 month Check up :)

A little late, but we finally had Hayden's 9 month check up at 9.5 months.....drum roll...........

20.15 pounds

28.5 inches long

50th percentile in all areas

But one thing that was for sure, Hayden didn't want to cooperate :), but he sure was cute!

A Christmas tree... Before Thanksgiving :)

We had some free time the Sunday before Thanksgiving, sooooo we went for an early start to our Christmas by putting up our tree. The boys both loved it!

Look Hayden, a tree, IN THE HOUSE!

This is funny!

Oooo, a TREE!

Thanksgiving with Friends

 It's a tradition, the Saturday before Thanksgiving, I host a Pre-Thanksgiving Thanksgiving. It started in college (With Angela!!!) when all of us would go home for the holidays and never get to spend a holiday together. Each year the guest list has changed. Back them it was all 8 roommates who each could bring 2 guests (24 people). Then when I graduated it was other friends, and when i met Steve it was half his friends, half mine. Now, for the past three years, its been friends and friends with kids. Yesterday we had 6 families, 10 kids, lots of sides and one big Butterball (oh and a turkey too).

I'm thankful for my friends, new and old, and I'm thankful for my beautiful boys who have given me so much including these new friends!

Happy Almost Thanksgiving!

In September, I became the chair of the Parent Advisory Council (same as a PTA) at Logan's Preschool, and since September we have been working on our Big Fundraiser, the 30th Birthday Bash: Dinner and Auction.


It all came together last night with a mix of delicious food, great company, tons of great items for auction and just a lot of fun!
