My parents and aunt joined us for Thanksgiving this year. This was my first Thanksgiving to host and it went off with out a hitch. My aunt said it was because "we are all pretty laid back." I thought Sweet Hubby was going to pass out right then and there. If any of you know my mom (or me), you know that there is not a laid back bone in our body. We had a laugh and she rephrased. She meant to say, we all get along and know how to deal with each others' personalities. We had a great visit and I am so thankful they were able to join us.
I found myself missing my sister at times. Like the time that my mom spent the entire 4th quarter of the Texas vs Texas A&M game yelling at the TV and never taking a breath. Kelly and I would have loved to make fun of her then. Especially since she was cheering on Texas for the first time. Ever. In her life. I think I remember her threatening me not to tell a soul...hmm? Wonder what she meant by soul? I think the secret is safe with us, right?
Babbling Brook came out of her shell and let her true ham-self shine. She made silly faces, fake belly-laughed to get attention, danced and babbled words that not even I could understand. Of course, with us in the kitchen preparing "the meal" she was always "hu-mee pease" (hungry please). She eats more than I do - definitely her Daddy's girl!
We had a sonogram Monday and the baby is growing (approx 2 inches) and is a wiggle worm. The heartrate is a steady 164bpm. We should find out the sex sometime in January. So exciting!
How was your Thanksgiving?
