Happy Thanksgiving!

As the busy holiday season approaches, just wanted to wish everyone a healthy and happy Thanksgiving! We are staying in town this year. I am making Apple Pie, Pumpkin Pie and Sweet Potato Casserole and we'll be going to my sister-in-law's house for a yummy meal.

Carson is doing great! She's talking up a storm (still only a few REAL words) but she's got a lot to say. She loves music, dancing, and being a busy body. She absolutely loves the Wiggles! We have an almost daily dance session with those guys. She has her favorite purses (they used to be mine) and some of them are our lunch bags... she doesn't care.. She props it up on her shoulder, grabs her cell phone and goes to town. :)

So this year, we are very Thankful for CARSON!!! She's happy, healthy and so much fun. We are also very thankful for supportive family and friends. Hope you all have a wonderful holiday!

November already?

anyone out there? I've been running around like a maniac the last few weeks, so sorry for the lack of posting. sooo... Carson is walking all over the place now, even running a bit too. She tested out of early intervention, so no more physical therapy on Fridays. She is doing wonderful, so happy. Her vocabulary is starting to explode (favorite word of the month - APPLE). I had a business trip to New Orleans, and after a two day rest at home, Carson and I took a trip to North Carolina to watch my nephews while my sister and niece are in St. Louis for a procedure. That was fun (and exhausting- I don't know how Robin does it!) We made it home just in time for my company's annual Halloween party... where Carson got her first dose of trick-or-treating. She caught on really fast and had a blast both at the party and for actual Halloween Trick-or-Treating. Carson was a butterfly.... and she pulled it off beautifully!

We live in a great neighborhood. We probably had 75+ kids come by. Carson had so much fun... she wanted to stay outside all night and visit the creepy Halloween scene across the street, interact with the other little kids, and of course... trick-or-treat!

phew... so now we're home and trying to get over the colds that we picked up, and resting up for the next big adventures... VOTING on Tuesday!!, my mom (Bebe) is coming to visit next weekend, and then more travel for me and then the holidays are right around the corner!
