Our Little Turkey!


What a wonderful Thanksgiving... My parents made the trip to Boise for the long weekend and Matt's Dad also joined us for the holiday. We missed Ross and Dannielle, as they couldn't make it due to work and school priorities. Matt's Mom was in Denver with his sister, Keasa-awaiting the birth of her second grandchild (more on that later). There are so many things to be thankful this year... Of course, I am ALWAYS thankful for my family, husband, and friends... This year, I GET to be thankful for something so special... Our son, Maddox... I am thankful that I survived being pregnant (yes, of course it was worth the "weight") and childbirth (what a beautiful experience!). I am thankful Maddox has a wonderful and loving extended family. More people to spoil him with love... I am thankful that my husband is a good father...and... most of all, I am thankful that this boy was sent to us - this perfect sweet little boy who’s smile opens up my heart in places I didn’t know existed. He has taught me how to love on a whole new level. Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
PS- Maddox is doing SOOOOooOOOOooo much better! He is taking naps, sleeping better, smiling, his face has cleared up (mostly), he holds his head up, and he is 10.8 lbs now! Everyone was right... Babies change so fast! I am so happy he is happy.... :)
