A Time of Thanksgiving

We are so thankful for our little guy. He is continuing to grow and develop. It's amazing to see what he is going to do each day. The other day he just started laughing! Adam and I just cracked up with him. It was so funny hearing him laugh! He is much more animated now. He is able to sit by himself for short periods of time while playing. He is also using his stomach muscles to pull himself into a sitting position. He often wakes himself up at night because he rolls so much. He is making lots of sweet baby sounds and grunting noises. My favorite thing is his sweet little smile. He can be crying...then when given some extra attention, can put on a smile in seconds. He also smiles really big when he is held into a standing position. He loves it! He also tries to put everything in his mouth, including my nose or any part of my face he can get close enough to.

Isaac has been struggling with a double ear infection. He has tried 5 different antibiotics and nothing seems to be doing the job. This is our prayer request.

Just wanted to put some pics on the blog from Thanksgiving. We had a wonderful time with our family! We enjoyed the beautiful music that Uncle Eric, Eric's dad (Ron), and Joe provided (the cello and piano). We enjoyed everyone eating at the same table at the Wallace's...and that's a lot of people at one table. It really was so nice having family togetherness. We also had fun spending time with the Coats' side of the family (thanks Ronnie for your generosity). We missed little Amy this year...she was sick with the stomach virus (yuck) and John..who had to work (yuck also).

We are blessed to have such a great family and friends. We have so much to be thankful for, and to God be the glory!
