On the Twelfth Day of Thanksgiving...

...the cheese stayed in the fridge. Today was a much better day. It's my favorite time of year, the bathrooms are clean again, the kids got to giggle and jump in a giant pile of leaves, and I got to eat cookies. What more could I ask for? A fever-free week? Doesn't look like that's going to happen as Luke seems to be a little under the weather all of a sudden. But it could be worse.

I guess I'm thankful for no major temper tantrums today by anyone living under our roof (including me). I'm also thankful for baked items such as chocolate chip banana bread, which I hope my small group enjoys in the morning. And I am super thankful for meals I don't have to cook, like the chili we enjoyed at Nana's tonight. Chris deserves a little thankful shout-out as well as he spend his entire Saturday helping some friends put a badly needed new roof on an elderly lady's house. What a guy!

I've got nothing but mucho boringness tonight, but there's one more thing I just can't leave out. I'm thankful that little Sam has had such an appetite lately that his belly and cheeks are not in immediate danger of losing their baby chub. His little footy jammies were so tight on his belly tonight. It was just adorable! Gotta get some rest so I can get all my squeezes in tomorrow.
