Happy Thanksgiving!!!

So, I've finally caught up with most (ok...some) of the events of the last week or two. SO...its time to live in the present. We had a wonderful first Thanksgiving. All of our family was here to celebrate. We were able to have Crystal's mom and dad here as well. Bethany and Joanna hosted a total of 12 here at Pecan View for Caitlyn's First Turkey Day. It was a wonderful time. Additionally, Caitlyn finally met her Aunt Joanna who is in from Michigan for a week, her Uncle Steve who was up from Austin, and Crystal's mom and dad, GREAT AUNT Sara and UNCLE Rod! A great time was had by all, and we even found a little time to start planning for the future with Caitlyn and Sam's Holiday pictures (Thanks for the awesome dress Crystal!!)

Here are pictures from all of the fun:

Caitlyn looks to see what all the fuss is aboutCaitlyn and Aunt Jo
Caitlyn and Uncle Steve watch football (and sleep a bit, but don't tell)
CR and Aunt Jo share a laugh in front of Aunt Jo's awesome art.
A super CUTE Thanksgiving outfit--Thanks Aunt JO!!Sam and Caitlyn get acquainted. He is growing SO big, SO FAST.

Nice to meet you, Mr. and Mrs. Wiggins!
I know Caitlyn grows every day, but I didn't really see what everyone meant about how much she is growing until I was gone from Sunday to Tuesday night. She looked like a totally different girl from when I left!!! Its excited to see all of the new things that she does. She hasn't yet hit her stride and routine (Bethany has been AWESOME about taking care of her 24/7!!!) but she does have so much more strength and control in her head and neck. Her eyes are getting clearer, and she is already starting to turn over and reallly kick those legs! I'm afraid that I'll wake up tomorrow and she'll be asking for my car keys.

Well, tomorrow brings Christmas lights and a Christmas tree. Pretty excited stuff! Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family.

Here's to looking forward to Christmas:
