Thanksgiving: Typically, Jill and I separate around this time of the year so she can spend time with her familia and I usually eat an early dinner and work the weekend. This year, it's different. I'm STILL working on Thanksgiving like I have for the last 12 plus years, but in the early morning and we're going to jet over to Madison to eat dinner with my family. Friday, we're heading out to Illinois for the weekend. This is the VERY FIRST year Jill and I are eating Thanksgiving with each other at a house on the actual holiday. Last year, we made an early turkey day mini feast and went on our own separate ways. It's also Mia's first Thanksgiving. Should be interesting. Hopefully she survives the drive down to Illinois.
Today I was off, and it was quite lovely. Spent a little time with my lil bro Andy at his casa. He's doing so much better with Mia. Getting way more comfortable holding her and she's giving him lots of hugs. Maybe it's because we look alike and she sees him as a safe individual to hug? She also pet HIS baby kitten Dex. It was her first time petting a cat. I was slightly nervous at first because I didn't know how Dex would react. The kitten is so docile and didn't mind Mia petting him. Later, I stopped at KT to visit Steph B who baby sat her over the summer while I cut our big yard. She couldn't believe how big Mia has gotten. Neither can I.
Like every Wednesday night, I cooked dinner for Jill and I and we had a very relaxing evening with Mia and got to watch our shows. Mia was uber hyper, but I made her laugh quite a bit and it was super hilarious. You can see those big-ass teeth of hers coming in on top. Very cute.
Before I head off to bed soon, I'd like to give thanks to my fantastic and patient wife Jill, my wonderful and supportive family and friends and my healthy little shark, Mia. It's been a crazy year and I'm thankful every day that we have a healthy little baby.
