Happy Thanksgiving and being thankful

My computer is being repaired because a certain little someone got it all wet. But thankfully I had bought a warranty to cover accidents such as this, so it is being repaired for free.:) They say it can take up to 4 weeks though....UGH!

Still waiting for a court date and still shopping for our little peanut.:) Today we go and pick up his dresser and then we will decide on a crib! I am so excited to bring him home! Kris, I ordered his Rockin' Puppy yesterday:):).

I pray that everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving and a wonderful weekend! I am thankful for my family and friends and for all of my online friends, especially my Reece's Rainbow friends! I'm also thankful for warranties and insurance since Ben lost his cell phone in the same week as the computer accident! Boys, Gotta LOVE 'Em!!!!!:):)

Spaghetti...and some green stuff

Caleb loves almost everything especially spaghetti! Here he is showing how happy he is with tonight's dinner.:) He loves salads too but that took a little while. I remember one time when I put some salad on his plate and he shook his head and said "No Leaf!" LOL! Now he loves the stuff. He doesn't care for broccoli though. One night after I put some on his plate, I caught him picking it up from his plate and putting it back into the bowl. Too funny! He's my sweet boy!
Still waiting for a travel date for my second trip. There's another little sweet boy I can't wait to hold in my arms again!!!

7 random things about me.........

1. I love the smell of horses.

2. My all-time favorite cartoon is Winnie the Pooh.

Jimmy is 22!

This is the cake he chose to share with his class on Friday.:)






Jimmy is 22 years old today. He gets so excited about his birthdays and it makes them that much more fun to celebrate! Caleb says that Jimmy is "Two Two." On Friday, Jimmy's class celebrated his birthday early by going to see Madagascar 2 and then coming back to school to have cake.:) Today we had grandparents come over for cake. Then we went out to eat. Jimmy loves to be sang to in the restaurants so he chose Joe's Crabshack. I can't believe I walked out of the house and had forgot my camera.:( Jimmy looked so cute with the silly hat on they gave him to wear. They introduced him and he waved and grinned from ear to ear.:) I have to say this kid of mine makes my heart smile, especially on days like this. He truly is a gift from God!
Happy Birthday Jimmy, I love you!!!!

Happy Halloween

Caleb chose his own Halloween costume this year. I think it was because Ben and I were deciding what we would like Caleb to be. I wanted him to be a Hotdog and Ben wanted him to be a Banana. I think Caleb heard us and panicked because he started pointing and yelling "Doctor, Doctor!" LOL! I was so excited that Caleb chose his costume by himself.:) I have to say that Caleb loves our pediatrician too. When I ask him what he is going to be for Halloween, he would say "Dr. Singh". So here is Caleb as a Doctor and Ben as a Pirate and Jimmy as Davey Jones from the Pirates of the Caribbean.

Thank You!!

These are just some of the gifts that my friend Jody sent for Elijah and Caleb. She made these Thomas the Tank Engine blankets. Aren't they beautiful? They are so soft too! Caleb loves the puppy and I know Elijah will too.:) She even sent Caleb a Thomas Bingo. Caleb loves Thomas! He picked it up right away to check it out.:)
Thank you Jody for being so thoughtful and generous!

Home

I got home last night around 1:00am. I didn't go to sleep until 3:00am and then back up at 7:00 so I could go pick up Jimmy and Caleb at 9:00am. I didn't have to pick them up that early but I have missed them so much, I wanted to. Ben was already home since he picked me up from the airport. I figured out I have only slept 4 hours since Friday at 7:00 pm. Europe is 11 hours ahead and I had been up since 6:00am their time. I'm beat but it feels so good to be home with my boys. I had to do some grocery shopping and I also excitedly picked up some diapers size 3, some long underwear (size 12 months, probably a little big:))and a really nice diaper bag.:) Poor little Caleb is not feeling very good but of course he gave me a huge smile for the camera anyway. Jimmy was so excited that I flew in to NY. I'm glad I brought him a Statue of Liberty. Here are some pics of today.:)
