Thanksgiving and Megan


This is Megan on Thanksgiving day. She worked pretty hard getting ready and was just exhausted! Even though I don't have pictures of all the kids, we had a great day. The girls spent the night at grandma's the night before and helped her get ready, which gave Nate and I some time to work on some Christmas surprises. Dinner was great and I loved having a couple of days off of work and school. And it was, of course, an opportunity to reflect on everything I'm thankful for. This year especially I've realized I have A LOT to be thankful for. The first of which is family, but if you want to know more you'll have to read my journal (which I haven't written yet, but I will... soon).

So, I think the flower is still a little too big for Megan, but I love the smile! Megan is so smiley. (Is that a real word?) If you give her just two seconds of your time, her little face lights up. Whenever she smiles at me, I melt first of all, and then I feel bad that I don't spend more time smiling at her. She is already trying to sit up and has started to roll onto her side. And until a couple weeks ago, was sleeping through the night--for twelve hours!! But, just like with my others, I've somehow managed to mess that up. I have to admit though that I don't mind waking up with her. During the day I'm so distracted, but in the middle of the night it's just the two of us, even if I am half asleep. We are enjoying Megan so much. She is such a sweetheart.
