Well, we had another good weekend. Friday afternoon Rachel took our annual family Christmas pictures. I can't wait to see them. I bought River some blue jeans for these pictures. He looks so much older in blue jeans! Nick had to work a project clinic in Belton on Saturday and Sunday and I had to work a flu shot clinic Saturday morning. River stayed with Ma Ma while I worked on Saturday morning and then I went to Whitney for Saturday afternoon and night. River and I drove back home after lunch today. Nick stayed in Belton on Saturday night and got home mid afternoon today. Cassie was able to come to Whitney, too to spend time at Ma Ma and Pa Pa's. We really enjoyed getting to all spend time together. So the weekend was good, but would have been perfect if Nick could have been with us! :)
River is sitting up so good. He doesn't need help anymore, but I still have to put pillows around him. When he starts leaning he goes all the way to the floor, so he needs some cushion around him! We fed him applesauce for the first time tonight. We have gone through all the vegetables and now we are starting fruit. Applesauce is his first fruit and he absolutely loved it! He gave me a big grin after the first bite. He thought it was great!
I just want to say how much I love my family. Nick is such a wonderful husband and my best friend. River is such a joy and makes me smile everyday!
Thankful continued
November 8th: I am thankful for my friends. I have been very fortunate to make GREAT friends everywhere I have lived (Whitney, Stephenville, Amarillo, Lubbock, and now Teague). They have truly supported me through good times and bad. Thank you all for loving me and for being such terrific friends!
November 9th: I am thankful for my Church family. Wow, what an awesome group of people. From the very first time Nick and I stepped foot into Teague Church of Christ we have felt love and friendship. We are so thankful for all the people there and for how they have taken us in. It is also awesome to see how much they love River.
November 10th: I am thankful for my job. I am so blessed to be able to work 30 hours a week now that I have River. I work with some great people and I really enjoy them. I am very thankful for my boss, Greg. He is a Christian man and always helps me to remember to put God first in everything.
November 11th: I am thankful for my friend and babysitter, Rachel. I am so thankful that while Nick and I work we can leave him at such a great place. Rachel is so good with River and really takes excellent care of him. I don't have to worry while he is with her. Benjamin, Claira, and Macy are also blessings in our lives and River loves them, too. Rachel is a wonderful friend and I am so thankful for her and her family.
November 12th: I am thankful for my transportation. It is so nice to have a reliable vehicle and to be able to go places when I want to.
November 13th: Continuing from November 11th - I am thankful for all the caregivers that we have for River. My parents, Nick's parents, grandparents, aunts, and cousins have all pitched in to take care of River. I want River to love all his family and we are so blessed that so many of them want to keep him and spend time with him. It is so great that we have such wonderful people to help us raise our son while we are at work.
