Thankful

We just got back from Knoxville and had a wonderful time celebrating Thanksgiving with the Cox Family. I took 400 pictures while we were there (literally) so I will work on loading and organizing those, but in the mean time I didn't want to put off officially announcing that, come April, Nate will have a ...

BROTHER!!

I have had boy vibes my whole pregnancy (ask anyone who tried to convince me it might be a girl) but to find out we were really having another boy last week was still a little surprising! I think I still had, in the back of my head, the thought that the odds might be in my favor this time for a girl. But no, my house will be filled with boys - which is kinda strange for a girl who grew up in a house with all girls! But we are thrilled and, most importantly, he is healthy and wiggly so we are absolutely blessed. We are 20 weeks already so time is moving quickly!

So, until I get caught up from this weekend, here are some pics from Nate's Thanksgiving lunch at school last week....


Modeling his Pilgrim Suit (Yep, that is Thomas and Percy in his hands...they came along for Show & Tell that day)

All of the boys lined up and said the blessing together...I was amazed...

Before all of the food was even on the plates, Nate went straight for the cookie...I clearly didn't put that there!
