So much to continue to be thankful for this year. In a year where we have been tested as parents, at the end of the day we have a happy, healthy, loving boy and that's all that matters. This past week has actually been difficult - a dear coworker lost her husband to his 3 year battle with colon cancer, and a neighbor kid we have seen a few times passed away from a brain tumor. It's easy to get caught up in life's tiny daily challenges, but really we are pretty blessed and fortunate when it comes down to it....
On a lighter note... our actual Thanksgiving day was pretty low key. I made a turkey and dinner like usual, we watched the Macy's parade (Adam liked the balloon/floats), and we watched some great football games. We hung out, relaxed, and ate (and did a little online shopping) ;)
One of our purchases was a much needed new vacuum, which Adam was happy to test out the box and *assist* with any vacuuming needs. We also took Adam to get his second haircut, dang that baby's hair grows fast! He did great, again, until we had to leave and he freaked out because he couldn't stay and play with all of the *new* toys.
Adam's coloring hobby also took off this weekend. He mostly liked pounding the crayons on the paper but eventually he got into scribbling. So far it's looking like he has my art skills but I'm hoping somehow he was blessed with some of my cousin Sarah (his Godmother's) skills!!!
