Sprout is officially quite active and, from what I can tell, happy and willful. Sprout does let me know when I am at an angle that they do not like and definitely gives me quite the little push into getting myself up when they are hungry and have had enough of my lolly-gagging. It is quite adorable and we are very excited to meet this little person with the amazing personality.
We had our first Thanksgiving with Sprout in the belleh. Dave's turkey masterpiece actually had me wanting to try a bite (I HATE fowl normally, in case you didn't know) - and it was amazing. We also had homemade mushroom tarragon gravy, stuffing, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green bean casserole and cranberry sauce - we also had store bought pumpkin pie, sweet potato pie and brownies. The morning and afternoon was filled with the smells of cooking and the afternoon was filled with the sounds of our lovely boys. We are also watching our friend Kim and Matt's beagle Carlin ... so it was also filled with extra dog barks and licks. I can't imagine a better small intimate Thanksgiving dinner. Typically we have a much larger Thanksgiving with Shaena and her family but this year it was good to have it small as one never knows when pregnant ladies need to lay their heads down for a nap. :)
I am so thankful for everything that my life is ... I know that sounds so cliche and pollyanna-ish, but I am. There is nothing I would change.
Dave put together the rocking chair that we ordered and it is really cute! It will be very comfy for the late night feedings! We are going to put up the owl/tree wall decal that we bought on etsy this weekend too. I will put up pictures of both as soon as its done. (EDIT - DONE ... bad camera phone pic sorry!)
Just found out that BOTH Grandma AND Grandpa will be coming for the baby shower! We are so excited to have them out for the weekend! Hopefully I won't be too terribly big to take them around our neighborhood.
This weekend will be fairly low key, errands and such with the boys. We will make sure that we take 30 week pics this weekend.
For now, I still have a bit of the turkey coma inducing stuff in me so I must log off.
Love to you all,
Sandra & Dave
