Thanksgiving - Alan's First

First of all I need to say that I am the worst mother this was my child's first Thanksgiving and I did not take the 1st picture, so for that I am sorry (to Ms. Betty and to all of our faithful readers at Mando/aka Daddy's work), but I could not let Thanksgiving get past us without doing a post. I just want to say during this Thanksgiving season how Thankful Jack and I are this year for the birth of a beautiful baby boy, he brings both of us so much joy and happiness and we both love him more than we will ever be able to put into words, and we are so glad that God chose us to be his Mommy and Daddy. We are also thankful for our family/friends, health, church, our home/necesseties, and many other things that I cant think of to name, but we are so blessed.

From our family to yours, we hope you all had a Happy Turkey Day!!!

Playdate

Claire one of Alan's friend's came over to play yesterday. She is 18 months old & Alan is 8 months old but they played wonderful together, he just watched her, and she talked to him so sweet, she would say "pat da baby". Then she would tell him "War Hey" (which means war eagle hey), her parents are starting her out right!!!

We took them outside and they both loved it, the weather was beautiful. Thanks for coming to play with us Claire we hope you come back soon!!!

Alan's New T-Shirt

While we were in Decatur the Decatur High School Students sold t-shirts in honor of Mom and they look different than the shirt Alan is wearing, but I went to the place where they were printed to see if they could make Alan one because I thought he needed one too, and the owner of the shop agreed but he did say that the print would not fit on one of Alan's size shirts, so I went and got him a t-shirt and this is what the NICE man at the t-shirt shop put on this shirt for Alan and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!! He also said it was his treat to us, so anyone in Decatur that needs any t-shirt business please go see the people at Eternities on Central Parkway they are so nice.

Still Here & Our Visit to Decatur

Alan and I went to Decatur for a week and we really missed Daddy but we did lots of things while we there. We went so that I could be there for Mom's surgery and by the way she did great (they got all of the cancer) and she is at home recovering. Maw Maw & Paw Paw helped me so much with Alan and they were lifesavers.

We got to see Aunt Tammy

&

spend LOTS of time with our dog Buddy (he would try to protect Alan)

Alan had his first baby cookie at LeeLee & Bigdaddy's

We went to church with Mama G and she took Alan & I out to eat with her lunch bunch. Alan had so much fun he went to sleep in his highchair after she fed him, but we had a wonderful trip and we already miss everyone (even though we came because Lee Lee was under the weather).
We can't wait to see you all again at Thanksgiving!!!
