I was so excited he can sit up like a big boy!

I love him soooo much :)

Children's Christmas Party

Today we took Adam to the squadron Christmas Party. We were also able to get his picture taken with Santa.

Yep that's Uncle Tyler, Santa's Helper

My two handsome men!

Trip to the Park

We took Adam to the park across the street from our house today. I think we might have a future Astronaut on our hands :)

He really seem to like the swing.

Thanksgiving

He was ready to EAT!

He wanted the turkey!

Time for some sweet potatoes

Thanksgiving

With Thanksgiving just a few days away, I started thinking what will I teach Adam about Thanksgiving. So I started to really look into the true meaning of Thanksgiving.

I found that in ancient times, people of many cultures (including the ancient Greeks, Romans, Hebrews, Egyptians and Chinese) gave thanks to their god or gods for a successful harvest, and some of the traditions associated with modern Thanksgiving celebrations have their roots in these ancient festivals.

One aspect of Thanksgiving involves gratitude for having enough food to eat. I hope that as he gets older, we will be able to involve him in the shopping and donating of groceries to a local food bank. I also hope that we can teach him that this is something that we all should be doing all year long.

So I pose this question to you. What does Thanksgiving mean to your family? What do you hope your children learn about this holiday?

Adam's First Veggie

We started Adam with green beans today. I have choosen to make our own baby food. Not too sure what he thinks. :)
