November Challenge: Day 29

On the 29th of November, I was thankful for sweet moments with the Tater as we made brownies or bundies as he called them, together.  It's moments like these that I want to store up in my memory.  I want to remember his little self, standing in the chair at the counter, helping me stir the brownie mix, his deep toddler voice as he repeated what we were doing. 
While infertility is not fun, it definitely has helped me not take moments like these for granted.  :) 

November Challenge: Day 28

On the 28th of November, I was thankful for a night spent with my boys decorating our house for Christmas.  While it's still not December, it feels nice to have our tree up and the stockings hanging on the mantel.  There's just something magical about sitting and relaxing with the only light coming from the Christmas tree.

Time on the Farm

A few weekends ago, Tater went and spent the weekend on the farm with Nana and Papa.  I'd completely forgotten to share these pics that I got on my phone while he was there. 

Napping on the way to their house. 



Spending time with his cousin Ayla. 



Thanskgiving Nanny Week


Last week, I only had the girls for two days and since it was a holiday week, we had free week! 
It was full of holiday activities, fun, and imagination.  We all loved it! 

We love our morning walks. 

 Talking about pumpkins and scarecrows. 
 Homemade tents are awesome. 

 Turkey!
 Rain, rain, go away!
 Jumping rope inside the house is fun!
 J was being the teacher and Tater was her student.  Do you like his "backpack"? 
 B owned a beauty shop. 
 Reviewing our shapes. 
 Playing with the magnadoodle. 
 Reviewing our mommy and baby animal names, like cat and kitten. 
 An even bigger tent!
 Turkeys! 

November Challenge: Day 27

On November 27, I was thankful for Tater sleeping in until 8:30.  That rarely happens! 

November Challenge: Day 26

On November 26, I was thankful for a lazy day.  On this day, Tater and I didn't even get in the car to go anywhere, which is amazing for us.  We did take a walk, but besides that, it was nice to just relax some, to spend some time just snuggling and playing.

November Challenge: Day 25

On the 25th of November, I was thankful for Tater's birthmom.  It was her birthday that day.  Her selfless decision made us some of the happiest people in the world.  We are forever thankful that she picked us to be Tater's parents.
