My baby is 2 now

Well, Gav turned 2 on Friday. He is getting so big. He is such a little snuggle bug. He loves to give hugs and snuggle with me. I love it. He is in the "mommy can 't get out of my sight" stage. Sometimes it is a little much, but I know it won't last forever, so I need to cherish it. We had one of his bday parties on Sat. with many family and friends. It was fun. He got some great things. His cake was Thomas the train and we had Thomas and Backyardigans balloons. He still loves the backyardigans (he calls that cartoon Pablo). Then today we had Aaron's dad, step mom, step brother and sister in law and their girls over. We had a good time with them. We played a game called Buzz with his Dad and step mom. That was alot of fun.

We went to church this morning too. There was a great message. Pastor talked about being Thankful and not complaining. He said that Jesus never complained and he went through way more than we did. And that Christians' language should be Praise and thanksgiving not complaining. Man, that hit home. I do complain and alot of times when I shouldn't. I should just be thankful for the things I have. I am going to really try to just sit and think about all the things I am thankful for when I feel like complaining. Sometimes this is really hard to do. Then he also said that Thanksgiving is not just about the food. It is about the people that are there with you and the things that God has given to us. What a great message!

I am battling a cold. I hate being stuffy. I can't sleep great. I hate breathing through my mouth. And then of course to go along with my cold I have a couple cold sores on my lip. I haven't had one in about a year... yuck!! I hate them. (here I go complaining).

I am so thankful for my new furniture from my neighbors. We needed new so badly. It was so nice of them to just give it to us. And then my mother in law gave us a new box springs and mattress today. Yeah!!

Well, that is all for now. I am getting tired..... night.
