Happy Thanksgiving to all of our family and friends! We love you all and miss those that can't be near us today!

Manny & i enjoyed a nice dinner of turkey, gravy, mashed 'tatos, deviled eggs, corn, green beans, rolls, yams w/marshmellows, & cake! Now comes the horrible cleaning part ;)

I made Toby his own special meal again this year, he loved it of course! And there's plenty leftover for him to enjoy it tomorrow too. But i think we got him used to people food, he didn't devour it as quickly as he did last year - last year he attacked it!
I think Lexy enjoyed the meal - she started a kickoff as soon as i was finished :D

Now that thanksgiving is over, i'm so ready to decorate for christmas! I can't believe this year has gone by SO fast! It still feels like it's last year at this time. I'm sure time is just going to keep flying by with christmas coming up and then Lexy's arrival!

I'm getting a little anxious - but i think it's because im not sure what to expect. All i can do is take it as it comes and hope for the best.

Here's week 35 belly shot!
I can't believe i'm this far along, i remember in the first weeks i would dream of being this pregnant, not wanting to wait until the day, and now it's actually here! The last small stretch!

Only 33 days to go...

About being thankful and giving.
We may all have hard times but there is always someone out there that has it worse.
I have SO much to be thankful for this season. I have my amazingly wonderful husband who will do anything in the world for me. I have my beautiful daughter that will be making her arrival soon. I have my good health & the health of everyone around me. I have family far and near that love us dearly. I have my 2 furbabies, who can make me smile at least once a day, even on the roughest day. I have a few cherished friends. I have a nice house to come home to, a car that takes me where i need to go, the means to provide for ourselves. I have more food than manny & i need.

I really couldn't ask for more!

So this season - i want to think of others.
I just gave another marine wife (i don't know her, but what she's doing it really amazing) all these groceries to donate to families in need.

And manny & i will be giving toys to the marines for Toys For Tots.



Now, i challenge all of you to do the same. Even when we think we have nothing to give, we always have something. And the people on the recieving end are going to be so thankful for you and your kindess!

Swing, Swing.

Lexy got a swing tonight :)

I got it from a very nice thrift shop close to here.

It's the Starlight Papasan Cradle Swing - it's in great condition and a really good price. We payed $64 for it and it goes for about $150 in stores.

It's really cool b/c it has nature sounds and music, a mobile, and reflects stars on the walls. And bonus, it can plug right into the wall so i never have to worry about batteries! Batteries always fail me so this is a big PLUS for me. We turned it on and cut down the lights, it's VERY peaceful! Even manny and i wanted to go to sleep to it LOL.

Im sure Lexy is going to LOVE this swing!

And so far, Toby seems to *for the most part* ignore the swinging motion of it :)

Lexy is 100% a confirmed GIRL! Now i can finally wash the rest of her clothes! She's healthy, happy, a big mover/kicker, and weighs 5 lbs 4 oz. And has cute chubby cheeks that everyone is going to want to eat up!


And i guess my NST looked good enough today that the doc who overlooks them says i can cut back down to once a week! That means this Thursday is all mine - no work, no doc appts, just me/house time! And i got to cancel another appt i had made for next week :)

I'm 34 weeks today!

Only 42 days to go...
