More What?!

Today I am thankful for phones with video. As much as I despise Kevin's phone at times it does come in handy every now and then. He was able to get a video of Landon asking for more. It sounds like Landon is asking for more...well you be the judge!

Bedtime Thanks

Today I am thankful for Chick-fil-a and their peppermint milkshakes. Those things are amazing! It tastes like you are biting into a candy cane. Another thanks is for bed times. Landon's bed time to be precise. I love spending every waking moment with Landon, but I also look forward to his bedtime. I love snuggling up with him and reading bedtime stories. I love how silly he gets and all of the kisses he gives me in an effort to stay awake. Most of all I love the Mommy time that comes after bed time. I know everyone can relate to that. Landon's bedtime use to be a time that I dreaded. It meant that I was now all alone for the evening and completely bored. Now I am beginning to like the alone time. I catch up on some reading and do things that I don't have time to do other wise like painting my nails! I know I should use his early bed time to my advantage and get some cleaning done, but I'd rather use my "Mommy" time for selfish things. So thank you Landon for being such a good boy and going to bed on time. Mommy loves you!

Family Thanks

Today I am thankful for family. Both old and new, near and far. I am currently surrounded by most of my family and it's been a great evening. The random get togethers are what I love most. When we're just sitting around acting silly and enjoying one another's company. I'm thankful that Landon has so much family around on a regular basis. He loves everyone and adores wrestling with his uncles like he is currently doing. I don't know what we'd do without family. Unlike friends who can walk out of your life at any given time because of something stupid, family is always there. Family loves unconditionally and takes the good with the bad. They accept your faults and don't run away when the going gets tough...at least not my family. For that I am thankful.

Thankful for Smiles

I woke up in an amazingly good mood this morning. You know, one of those moods where nothing can bring you down. It made me think how thankful I am for what I do have. So up until Thanksgiving I will post a quick little something about what I am thankful for. Today it is easy- I am thankful for Landon. I am thankful for the way he wakes me up with kisses and tickles. I am thankful for his early morning smiles and his contagious laughter. I am thankful for every morning that starts with all of those things.

I am thankful for every morning that begins with this smile!

Full of Thanks

We may not have had a traditional Thanksgiving, but my mom made sure that we still had a traditional Thanksgiving dinner...just a few days late! Even though things aren't perfect right now I still have a lot to be thankful for. First and foremost, I am thankful for Landon. He makes each and every day worth waking up for (even if it is before the sun on most days)! I am also thankful for Kevin. He is, afterall, half of the reason that Landon is here today. I am also thankful for my family. They have been here for me when I needed them the most and for that I will forever be grateful. Last but not least, I am thankful for turkey! Afterall, we can't have Thanksgiving without turkey. My mom prepared an amazing dinner for all of us. She even made sure that everything was completely milk free. The only thing that Landon couldn't eat was the macaroni and cheese. Landon loved chowing down on his food. He especially loved the stuffing.

Landon was even able to enjoy some apple pie.

Landon loved every last bite of his food. Here is the aftermath!
