Thanksgiving and other fun things

It has been awhile since I updated our blog. Since then we started our holiday season with Thanksgiving! Austin spent his first Thanksgiving pretty much sleeping. That was good though, because we sure had a busy weekend. Thursday we ate at Ryan's grandma's house. There are so many people there and it can get a little crazy! The food and conversation was great as always. That night we went to my sister in law's parent's home for a little pie and conversation. We got to spend time with Grandpa and Grandpa Streit, my brother, sister in law, niece and my sister in law's family.

We do love Black Friday sales, but we decided to sleep in this year. Austin is pretty good at sleeping through the night so we didn't want to wake him up for no reason. We spent the time at home, it was just one of those days.

On Saturday we went to my parent's house. Two of my aunts and uncles, my grandma, her sister and then my family was there. Austin did a good job at entertaining everybody!

Now we are getting ready for Christmas. The garland has been hung, but that is all for now. I'm so excited to start celebrating special holidays with my new family. I swear it just makes this time of season ever more special!

In camo, like Daddy!



Always so alert!

Tummy time!

Austin hates tummy time, but gosh darnet I'm going to take a million pictures of him. He is pretty much the cutest kid ever and I only say that because I am totally unbiased. I'm so excited so next week, it will be our first Thanksgiving and I'm excited about showing him off to people that haven't met him yet. Until then, here is my cutie pie honey bun.

Two months old. Where did the time go?

On Friday Austin celebrated his two month birthday! The day didn't start out great, as it was spent at the doctor's office getting his shots. Thankfully (maybe), he was so hungry and crying from that I'm not too sure he even noticed the shots. Mommy had a bottle ready for him right afterward and he seemed pretty satisfied. Not surprising, he's a big boy. Weight was 15 lbs, height was 26 inches. He ranked in the 98 and 99 percentile respectively. I've been told to stop feeding him fertilizer. :-)



For fun, we put him in his coming home outfit. We knew he was going to be big, so it was a 0-3 month outfit. I can't believe how much he has changed. Even his face and everything.

Austin just a couple days old.

I love him soooooooooooooo much!

Happy Halloween

Austin had his first Halloween last Sunday! He dressed up as a skeleton and even had his own pumpkin with his footprints on it. We didn't do trick or treating this year, maybe next year if he is walking. Instead we just stayed at home and passed out candy to the kids in the neighborhood.
