Photo update and Thanksgiving

I guess it is time for a photo update.  Here I am on Thanksgiving Day.  Can't wait to get my hands on the turkey!  We had a wonderful day.  My family was visiting from Indiana and Bobby's family joined us at our house to celebrate.  Some people thought I was nuts to host the dinner, being 6 months pregnant and with a house torn up with construction.  It worked out well though and everyone pitched in with food.

The renovations are coming along.  My dad was out 2 weeks ago to get it all started and he and my brother-in-law Andrew and Bobby worked during most of this trip as well.  The nursery has a coat of paint up and is really starting to look legit.  I will post more photos soon of all of the work being done.  A big thanks to dad, Andrew, Cara and mom for sacrificing their holiday time to drive 14 hours to work, work, work!  I promise it was their idea, not mine!

This Thanksgiving I felt especially thankful.  1 year ago at this time we had a couple of failed fertility cycles behind us and I wasn't feeling very thankful for much of anything.  Look at us now!  What a difference a year makes.  I am thankful for family and friends who have been so valuable during this time - both mentally and physically.  I am thankful for a loving husband who is giddy with excitement about being a dad.  I am thankful for the 3 precious lives I have been so blessed to carry!
