I am T H A N K F U L for you
J A X S O N R E E S E!
It has been over year since we found out about your existence in this world.
Back then I didn't know how life would be with you.
Now, I cannot imagine life without you.
You are 4 1/2 months old & full of new tricks.
- Blowing Bubbles
- Rolling Over
- Sitting up with minimal support
- Holding your own bottles
- Eating Oatmeal from a spoon
- Self-soothing yourself to sleep at bedtime
- Giggling up a storm
Over the past few weeks you have become very observant of your surroundings.
You are fascinated with Tooey.
We are teaching you to be gentle and kind to her.
She is a trooper and lets you bonk her upside the head or pull her hair.
We celebrated your first Thanksgiving this week.
Mama had you all decked out.
This year we opted for Bucca Di Beppo's
family style Turkey Dinner.
It was yummy - but does not compare to Gigi's Turkey Dinner she normally prepares. 
Playing a game on the night of Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve is a big deal around here.
It has been a family tradition since I was little.
You actively participated in your first game.
I can't even explain how excited I am to pass down old family holiday traditions
& create new ones with you.
You are the biggest blessing ever given to me.
The holidays have an all new meaning now because of YOU.
I am thankful for that.
