We had a wonderful low key Thanksgiving. We went to my parents house on Wednesday afternoon and stayed until Friday afternoon. We loved spending time with my parents and my sister Sara. We were missing my sister Anna and all of her family :(, they had to spend it with her husbands family this year. So without Anna's crew being there, Jack was the only baby and got all of the attention. I have to say, he loved it!!!

Jack also got a fun early christmas present from The Howells, a little people nativity. He had fun playing with it. He loves to find baby Jesus!!
Jack really enjoyed spending time with his MaeMae, Papa & Aunt Sasee

On a different note, my baby turned 14 months old Nov. 27th! My baby is growing up so fast and he is so much fun. I don't want to forget all the things he is doing at this age.
- We have a walker, that's right Jack is WALKING!! I can't believe it. He doesn't do it all the time, just when he feels like it. It won't be too long before he is everywhere!
- He can say bye bye, mama, dada, hey, thank you, night night and his favorite word is uh oh. Whenever I say certain things he will watch my mouth to see how I am saying it.
- So far in the food dept everything he has tried, he has liked.
- He is wearing size 4 diapers and 12-18m clothes.
- He knows where his nose, head and feet are!
-He has 6 teeth. Two on the bottom and four on the top. I think we have some more coming in but I do not dare stick my finger in his mouth to try and feel because he will bite you and it hurts!!
- He is absolutely in love/obsessed with Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. When it comes on in the mornings he gets so excited. His favorite part is the Hotdog Song. Rob and I made the mistake one day of playing the hotdog song on our phones and now he will find our phones and just point at it wanting us to play the song. And he doesn't want it played just once, he wants it played multiple times!!
My mom had this little football at her house with Mickey's face on it and I would ask Jack where Mickey Mouse was and he would turn the football and point to Mickey.
- He is definitely understanding a lot more things we are saying these days.
- He is still a great sleeper. He takes 2 great naps a day and sleeps from about 6:15pm-6:30am. We are very lucky in this deptarment. He likes his sleep as much as his mama does ;)!!
He started a new daycare this month and I was really nervous about it. Jack loved his teachers at his other daycare. They are all he knew. I think moving him will be what's best for him in the long run. Like I said I was so nervous on Monday, I mean how would you feel if someone left you in a strange place where you knew no one. I mean yes I know we are adults, but still. I have to say, he had a good first day. They said he did wonderful. They said he had an excellent second day. At this daycare they only take one nap a day. Jack is used to taking a 2hr nap in the morning and in the afternoon. He has done great only having one nap but is super tired when we get home in the evenings. I think it will take him a week or two to get used to that. So this mama feels so much better and I know this was a good move.
Jack you bring so much joy to our lives!! We are beyond blessed to be your parents!!

| Looking at this sweet boy makes me realize everyday what I am thankful for. I am so incredibly thankful that God chose Rob and I to be this wonderful little boys parents. I absolutely love my precious little family and I realize how truly blessed I am!! |
