Thanksgiving

It was a different Thanksgiving this year, but it was a good one. Heather's husband is gone as well, so Jack, Aurora and I went to her house for Thanksgiving lunch. We all brought our favorites and had quite the spread. Of course we ate too much, but it was a wonderful day wrapped up with a nice walk and pumpkin pie for dinner! We really missed Newman and the rest of our family, but it was a nice day with delicious food and wonderful friends!

Five Months Old

Jack is Five Months Old!

He's getting so big and he's so fun! Some of his favorite things to do are play peek-a-boo, bounce in his jump-a-roo, and talk to his stuffed monkey. We went to the doctor last week for a cough and cold so we got a current weight and our little monkey is 17 pounds! He's feeling better with the help of an antibiotic. When I give him his medicine he smacks his lips and looks up for more:). He loves eating from a spoon and sitting in his high chair for dinner. I've started making his food and his favorite so far is green beans. We're loving spending extra time together and can't wait for Christmas so we can spend more time with daddy and the rest of the family!

Happy Birthday, Marines!

Today is the 235 th birthday of the Marine Corps, so Jack had a photo shoot this morning so he could send his daddy a birthday picture. He especially loved it when I put Newman's cover on him. Anyway, Happy Birthday to Marines everywhere and thank you for what you do!
