Thanksgiving Then and Now

This Thanksgiving is our first with Lucy on the outside of my belly! Last year Thanksgiving day was the second of 2 due dates I had been given. Instead of watching the turkey bake everyone sat around watching my belly hoping I'd go into labor. Alas, Lucy wanted to be a December baby. I am so Thankful this year that she is here. Last year at this time I had no idea if the baby inside me was a boy or a girl let alone what a neat and interesting person she would turn out to be. I was worried about finding daycare for this unknown child and scared that I wouldn't be up to the task of being a Mommy. Little did I know that she would be an amazing Lucy- filling my life with joy I had never known before. Thank you God for the opportunity to be this baby's Mommy, thank you for every precious day we have together. Thank you for my beautiful family. This blog isn't big enough to hold my thanks. The blessings have been enumerable- what a difference a year makes!

Visiting Granny

The main reason we took our trip to Louisiana was for Lucy to meet her Great Granny. It was so important and special to get them together. Unfortunately, Great Granny had a health scare the week before so she was pretty weak, but Lucy did a good job brightening her spirits. Lucy told her jokes and showed her how to play patty-cake. I feel so fortunate to have been able to get Lucy out to meet her Great Granny. It was certainly one of the highlights of the trip. We are all so blessed to have such a wonderful extended family.

High Five

We're enjoying our extended family in Louisiana this week! This is Lucy high fiving her Great Uncle. We had a very long car ride to get here, but we're all taking it in stride and we're all having fun seeing and being seen. More pics are I'm sure soon to follow!
