Thankful Thursday #121: happy Thanksgiving!

Happy thanksgiving! I hope you’re enjoying your holiday with family and/or friends and that there’s lots of delicious food in your future.

Since time is scarce these days, I have a short and sweet Thankful Thursday today.  Something special happened on Tuesday – all my Moms showed up at our house at the same time without even planning it!  Phyllis came to spend a couple days with us and help around the house, bless her, Momma Donna stopped in on her way to work to meet her newest “grand-baby”, and my own mother, who just arrived in Wichita on Saturday and just in time to meet baby Joshua, came over to spend some more time with him (she also came to the hospital.  And for the record, the excitement finally kicked in – she is so in love with him! So happy for that. :) )And the craziest thing is, even my foodie Mama joined us from California without knowing it, calling me to congratulate me on Joshua’s birth.  I’ve said it before, but God has such great timing.  How wonderful for him to orchestrate this special day. :)

I know you’d have rather seen Joshua than the nursing cover over my chest, but I wasn’t about to break his latch when we’ve been working on it so hard.  And you’re welcome for me not flashing my boob! lol

Happy thanksgiving! May you find many things to be thankful for this year.

  6. So so so happy for you, V. Enjoy him….they grow up so darn fast. And best wishes with the nursing. It’s not always easy, but it is SO worth it. Lansinoh is a wonderful product, btw…in case you end up needing a little TLC for yourself and you don’t have to wash it off prior to nursing. =)

  10. CONGRATULATIONS, Veronica!!! I’ve had some crazy days at home (we have around 50 for Thanksgiving) and haven’t caught up on all of my blogger friends. Getting ready and then cleaning up has wiped me out.

    Wow! I kind of missed a LOT with you, Veronica. What a beautiful baby! I am just so happy for you! Congrats to you and your hubby!

    My “baby” turned 21 on Saturday (11/30). I had my daughter, Rachel, on the Monday after Thanksgiving in 1992. I can’t believe she is 21! I remember what a special time it is to bring a baby into this world right around Thanksgiving and the Christmas season. It is just awesome!

    I am just so very happy for you! What a difference a few days can make, huh? And what a difference the birth of a baby can make (the baby, Jesus, AND the baby, Joshua)!

    Enjoy every minute! So happy for you and your family!
