100 Days to Go!

Okay so this post was started a few days ago but I am finally getting around to finishing this entry! Crazy week :-) We are at 97 days now! OMG

Wow! Our baby counter says it all today-- 100 days to go!!! We are getting more excited everyday to meet our little guy! My favorite thing these days are feeling the baby kick! For so long, I did not feel him moving but now, we have a kicker :-) YAY! It is just an amazing feeling. I have to admit, I like to give a little push back on my stomach just to feel him give a kick back at me :-)

So, as promised, Thanksgiving updates are here!

We had a fabulous Thanksgiving! We have so much to be thankful for this year words cannot describe it! I think about all the challenges we were up against last year this time and I feel so lucky to be where I am today! It was great to host Thanksgiving.....not only for the first time at our new house but our first time ever as a married couple! There were eight of us including Bill and I to celebrate and give thanks. Dad, Cheryl, Max, Annie, Hubbell, and Gary! Sadly, I think we had a enough food for 20!!! But, the food was delicious!!!! So, that just meant yummy leftovers for all!

Bill did a great job on the turkey. Take a look!

And the apple cake that mom and I made for dessert was a hit! Bill and I still have one piece left for dessert tonight!

We used our China for the first time and to our surprise, our dinning room table came in two days before the holiday so we go to use it too! We don't have the other pieces yet but we were still thrilled to use the table! It's the small things I tell ya :-)

Take a look...I think it looks better in person :-)

This week is jammed packed leading up to a very busy weekend. Isn't that what the holiday season is all about! We have our second baby class Saturday morning. It's called baby essentials...it helps you learn and feel more comfortable with the "basics" of taking care of your baby from what I am told. Bathing, changing diapers, nail clipping, etc.....

Saturday night I am helping host a couples shower for my co-worker and friend Sarah and her fiance Eric! They are having a destination wedding in Jamaica in January so we are giving them a Caribbean celebration. I am so excited to celebrate with them but to also see all my co-workers from the my old clinic. Even though it has only been two weeks since I have changed clinics, it feels like forever!

On Sunday, we are having our Chavurah group over for our annual Hanukkah celebration. A week early for Hanukkah but who says we can't start early :-)

So, lots going on these days! I almost wish I could slow things down a bit because time is just flying by and I have lots more to do :-)

Just a few more days and we will be heading to Maryland to see our families for a baby shower that my sister is hosting for us there!! We are so excited. We have not been home to MD in over a year and even though we will have a short visit it is totally worth it!!!!

Hope everyone is having a great start to the holiday season!
