Thanksgiving Week





This Thanksgiving Jason and I will be making our last trip home as two instead of three. We leave Wednesday around 11am and get in to SC after 6pm. This is the busiest travel weekend at DIA (Denver International Airport) and we will be just two of the 1 million that will pass through that airport over the next few days!
Trevor and Sidney have gotten their vaccinations and are all packed for their stay at the kennel while we are away. They'll be excited for the car ride, but probally not too happy to be left. These are the two unexpecting 'big brothers". They can tell that I change is happening in the house - but are unsure what it all means. Mama's lap still belongs to Sid for the time being. (This blog we wanted to share some photos of the other babies in our home.)
Kayce, JWU coworker, loaned me tons of maternity clothes and then passed on some baby items. So I will have lots to choose from to wear this trip home. I have been so blessed by friends loaning and passing items on - the un-nursery is starting to look more nursery than not. Kayce and Lindsay (another JWU co-worker) have also passed on newborn diapers as their newborns have outgrown them so I even have a drawer of diapers ready for our little butter bean!

Now for a note on the father-to-be:
As many of you know this summer Jason changed electrical companies. He had a whirlwind beginning where he was immediately promoted given a phone, truck and gas card. He is now a foreman with them and his main job is an over $1 Million school. He has 1-2 other jobs that he is also managing at the same time. He is handling everything for this school from the ground up. So most nights and weekend are spent pouring over blue prints so that he has the supplies there for his guys to do what needs to be done next. It's been pretty interesting seeing how all the different contractors work together (or don't work together) to get all parts of the job going up at the same time. So maybe by the time the school is completed for next school year he will be able to take a few days of paternity leave. :)
