Thankful Time of Year!

This time of year always gets me to stop and realize what all I am thankful for and how much I should realize this all throughout the year, not just now!  I have a great marriage, supportive/humorous spouse, adorable/hilarious baby, wonderful extended family, friends who have become family over the years and new friendships that are growing in the Twin Cities area, beautiful home, challenging career and decent pets ;-)  I helped make Maci's "what I am thankful for box today" and for those that know me I loved this project because I got to color but I also loved it because I am competitive and I want to hear that her box was the best =)  It was so fun covering her box in pictures of family/friends, colors that mean things to us and of course stickers!!!  I just love this time of year and Clint and I say at least once a day how excited we are to celebrate this special time of year with our mobile Maci!!  This great mood I am in was assisted by the Bengals complete domination of Cleveland today.

We are also starting to get fired up for the my parents' visit over Thanksgiving!  They get in Wednesday night and mom is going to help me make a Thanksgiving meal. . . oh who am I kidding, she is going to help Clint, I will supervise!  On Thanksgiving morning we are all doing a 5k together but walking and I hope they are remembering to bundle up =)  Then on Friday I think the girls (mom, Maci and I) are heading out for some crazy day after shopping while Dad and Clint enjoy beers and football.  Saturday is the big OSU vs Michigan game and lots of other fun options that we are debating before they have to head home on Sunday =(  We can't wait to be in Ohio though for a week around Christmas to see all the Ohio family and friends!!  If you are around, you will have to get in touch with us so you can see our walking doll baby.

Ok, about that doll baby - here are some of the best pics from this week!

Well, She LOVES to Eat, no matter where or when!


 Daycare sent this hilarious picture mid week saying "they grow up so fast!"

Thursday we got to have our regular swim lessons, followed by Applebee's dinner with our friends Jaycee, Ryan and Baby Natalie.  I think it is so cute how miss N sucks her thumb =)
Well that is about it folks.  The rest of my day consists of preparing for the week, catching up on some work, folding laundry and all sorts of non exciting activities but again I am getting to do them knowing we had a Bengals W. . . ahhh makes life so grand!!!

Until next time, lots of love from C, K & M
