Same ol' same ol'

I realized I haven't updated you all in a week or so, so I figured I should say hello. But in reality there isn't much going on around here. It's pretty much status quo until next week. We're working hard and trying to get Jensen to crawl...although I know it will be a case of "be careful what you wish for"! However, last night she was getting a lot further than she has before. She's really trying to get those legs under her and was moving herself in circles. As Judy says, she just needs a little motivation...like a bright shiny Christmas Tree! ha ha!

And speaking of Christmas, have I told you how excited I am? For those of you who know me well, you know that Christmas is my favorite time of year. I'm trying very hard to respect the Turkey this year and wait for Christmas to get here....but to be honest I feel like we're getting cheated! Thanksgiving is SO late this year, so I am making a few exceptions and bumping up a few things. Like Christmas music is allowed in the house starting next week, and I got some peppermint mocha creamer. Ha ha!Take that you Turkey!

We are hosting Thanksgiving this year and we're so excited to have the family here. Marc's parents, the Vigufusson's, and the Cooney's will all be here. Jensen and Abi get to spend their first Thanksgiving together! yeah! I'm on a hunt for the perfect Thanksgiving outfit...we'll see what I find.

Jensen went to her first birthday party last weekend for Brody, our day care provider's son. He turned three and was so excited that Jensen was there. Jensen also got to spend some more time with her buddy Charlie who just turned 1. They are so freaking cute together. Charlie is into hugs and head butts and Jensen just takes it like a champ. She's our little brute that's for sure. I think she gets it from her Auntie Ashley :)
