Day 5

This is my 2nd year to participate in the Tiny Tim Holiday Fantasy.  This event is truly amazing.  All the proceeds go to the Leann Britain Center where my nephew goes to school.  The school helps kids like Bo get an education even if you can't afford to go there.  All the money raised last night goes directly to the Britain Center.  I'm thankful to be apart of such an amazing event. 

Day 4

Today I'm thankful for my little man who just started counting in Spanish out of the blue.  He counted all the way to 7!  Phillip and I both looked at each other in shock!!

Day 3

I'm thankful for Saturday mornings just Brody and I!  Nothing better then cuddling on the couch!

And why am I taking a pic?

WHEN I SHOULD BE TELLING HIM TO GET DOWN!!!!!!  :)  Little Monkey! 



Day 2

Day two....I'm thankful for my day care lady who takes care of my son Monday through Friday!  Cheryl has taught Brody so much.  He can count to 20.  He can say all of his colors.  He can say all of his shapes.  He can tell you what animal is what and what sound they make.  He can sing songs.  He can say please and thank you at all the appropiate times.  He can play well with other and share most days!  Brody brings a project home everyday.  It could be a painting, flash cards, letters, animals made out of construction paper.  I can't wait to get home everyday just to see what Brody has made.  I also love that Brody loves it too.  He told Phillip yesterday that he made him a painting at Cheryl's!  Today I'm thankful for Cheryl.  I never could imagine Brody with anyone other then family and now look how far we've come! 

Day one of giving thanks!

I feel like I can take a few minutes of everyday to say what I am thankful for.  Day one is about being thankful for The Peck's!  For the 3rd year in a row we have gone to their house for Halloween and every year it gets bigger and bigger.  This year they went above and beyond with the amount of food and treats.  Becky always tries her best to make sure everyone has everything they want or ask for.   She also made all the kids their own individual sack of candy and of course a toothbrush.  The house was decorated to the max and all the kids loved it.  There was a face painting party in the kitchen for all the kids that needed something on their face which was almost all of them!  We all headed out for a fantastic night of Trick-or-Treating.  The kids ran and ran and ran.  They couldn't wait to get to the next house.  Brody was usually the last one to the house.  His space boots wouldn't allow him to run as fast plus his 2 1/2 year old legs!! :)   Brody would say... "Wait for me guys" or "I'm coming friends"  Brody and most of the kids went through the haunted house.  Yes, I took my 2 1/2 year old through a haunted house.  He loved it.  He kept saying, "Mommy this is scary, or oh that's creepy."  So, on this first day of giving thanks I would like to THANK the Peck's for always taking my family in and treating us as if we are part of their own family! 

Happy Halloween 2012
