Happy Holidays!

Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Just a quick update from me to check in and wish everyone a wonderful holiday. Our family has been so blessed this year with the addition of Brody to our family. We are simply in love with our son and are enjoying every minute of being parents. Well, not every minute, of course, but he is completely worth any hard moment we have experienced. It seems like forever since I have updated, so here are some shots of what we have been up to.

The family making silly faces in the mirror.


We all ran/walked the Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving. Chad ran, while I walked with Brody. Chad ran back on the course to finish with us. Here is Brody getting ready to race on Auditorium Shores.


We have been forcing Brody to wear goofy hats. Here he is posing as an elephant.


Here we are in Brody's best brown hat...the one I bribed him with to come into the world.


Brody loves time with his Daddy. Here he is hamming it up for the camera on his Daddy's lap.


Other updates - I will be working full time only until the end of January. Beyond then, I will be a stay-at-home mom. I'm really looking forward to being able to be with Brody full time and am so thankful that Chad and I are going to make it work. Brody's head is misshapen from time in the womb and from being on his back, so he will be in a DOC band starting early January. Look forward to seeing cute pics of him in his 'helmet'. Chad is finishing the biggest work project of his career in the next month. I'm so proud of him for working so hard for himself and us. His first year owning his own company and working for himself has been successful, and I know he has worked very hard to make it so.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
