If you came to this post expecting a gushing out pour of all that I'm thankful for...you are in for a surprise!
I hate Thanksgiving and all of the stupid "Day #: I'm thankful for...." crap that everyone and their brother is doing. It's like they go through their list of family members and if that list is short, then they move on to their pets, their neighbors pets, and who knows what else after that.
If you want to be legit, be thankful all year long and SHOW your appreciation through small acts of kindness towards those you love.
And the Thanksgiving dinner?!?! Of course I like food...but why spend days preparing for one ahort meal of engorgement followed by hours of cleanup? Order in pizza and call it a day.
Call me the grinch of Thanksgiving. The only part I like out of all of it is the wine and box stuffing with gravy from a jar.
Enough said. I'm retreating back into my grinch mountain cave.

Dear Daddy
Mommy and I enjoyed relaxing today. I fell asleep in Mommy's arms while we were watching MASH together.
We can't wait to see you soon. It's hard for Mommy with all the unknowns, but we are doing pretty good otherwise.
Our favorite thing to do is sleep in and then I eat and talk to Mommy for a little while. Pretty soon I will be talking to you too Daddy!
Hugs and milky kisses

Mommy and I ran all around town today with Nana. We went to the post office, grocery store, baby store, clothes store, and had lunch with Aunt M! I grossed Aunt M out by puking down the side of her nice black dress pants and shoes.
I was pretty fussy again today, but finally fell asleep around 5pm and slept for 3 whole hours. Mommy couldn't believe it and kept checking on me.
Tomorrow Mommy and I are doing nothing but laundry, work out, watch tv, and snuggle and sleep a lot! Oh, and I might get a bath. Yeah me!!!
Love you Daddy. Miss you lots.

Dear Daddy
My happy phase came to an abrupt end yesterday. Mommy is at her wits end trying to figure out what happened and why the turn of events. I've been crying for the past 4 hours, not to mention all the crying that I did today. I got so worked up that Mommy ended up having to put on headphones on the ride back from SAFB.
On a good note, I'm eating a ton and continuing to do a lot of baby talking (during the good moments). Mommy says I'm either talking, screaming, or snoring. Today Mommy got in the shower twice just to chill out and try and mentally relax. She tries so hard to be calm and happy around me, but I know my fussing is putting her patience to the test.
Both Mommy and I can't wait to be with you!
Hugs and kisses.

I'm growing so fast...Mommy can hardly believe that I'm now at 12 lbs and 23 inches long.
I'm holding my head up now and even trying to lean forward on my own. Here I come Grandpa W! You said you'd watch me when I can hold my head up!
I like standing up (Mommy keeps me from not falling over). I really don't like tummy time unless I'm laying on Mommy's chest, and today I started sleeping a full three hours at a time. When I'm awake in between naps, I like to lay on my play mat with a few toys to entertain me above my head, watch TV with Mommy - sitting up like a big girl in Mommy's arms, or sit in my bouncy seat watching Mommy.
If people are talking to each other and not paying attention to me...I get fussy. I love attention but loud noises and loud voices or yelling scares me and I cry. Mommy can't yell at Teddy (dog) anymore because I get upset. It's my sneaky way of letting Teddy do whatever he wants. We made a pact back when he was my protector while I was still in Mommy's belly.
I can't wait to be with you again Daddy. We are going to have so much fun together! Love you.

Mommy and I watched Despicable Me and we loved it! I watched the whole thing on Mommy's lap and tried to talk with the little minions. Mommy thought I was hilarious.
I had a great day today. Only fussed a few times, ate lots of yummy formula milk, and napped like a champ.
I loved seeing you on FaceTime!!!
Mommy got her camo Cardinals shirt in the mail today. She was so excited and can't wait to wear it tomorrow. We'll take a picture and send it to you!
Yesterday at Nana's birthday party, Mommy gave me the tiniest bit of cake frosting and ice cream. I loved it and kept smacking my lips for more. Don't worry Daddy! I promise not to eat a lot of sweet stuff and junk food! Mommy just wanted to see how I would react to anything other than milk.
So we tried a teaspoon of watery baby cereal this morning, but I didn't like it as much. I wanted my milk instead!
We love you and miss you soooo much. Get better soon!
