Thanksgiving 2011 - A Year of True Blessings
We have a lot to be thankful for this year. Having a healthy baby boy this year was the answer to our prayers. I try to remind myself of how blessed we are when I get upset with my weight or start complaining over a lack of sleep. I keep trying trying to remind myself to not sweat the small stuff! It is definitely a lesson both Josh and myself need to constantly remind ourselves of as we both have a tendency to get stressed easily.

Lucas - 1 Month Old
1 Month Old:
1 Month, 1 week:
We are almost at the 6 week mark. I go to the doctor next week for the standard post-birth 6 week check up. I feel like I am finally starting to get the hang of the parenthood thing. Well, maybe not getting the hang of it, but each day feels a little more comfortable than the last. Lucas spent the first 3-4 weeks sleeping all day and staying UP ALL NIGHT. He is finally staying awake during the day and getting up about 3 times during the night. This makes me very happy! Those first few weeks were so exhausting that words really can't describe it. I was a zombie. I seriously don't know how I was functioning. Nobody really prepares you on quite how hard those first few weeks are. Oh well, we are surviving. We were blessed with a beautiful baby boy and that is all the matters.

Annie's 30th
Annie & I have been friends since we met when she was 4 and I was 3. Crazy to think we have been friends for so long! She started school a year early and I was held back a year so we were always 2 grades apart. Despite an age difference in school and going to different colleges, we have always remained the best of friends!
Annie turned 30th on the 5th and her hubby, Mike, threw her a party to celebrate at their house. We took Lucas on his first outing to the party. I didn't get any photos of the little guy but here are a few of us from the party.
We had a great time! Love ya, Annie! :-)

Cody's Buddy
Cody has done really well with welcoming Lucas to our family. He is completely fascinated by him and always want to give him kisses. On Saturday, Cody put his tennis ball on top of Lucas' bouncer seat to share with him. It was very sweet.
