Many Reasons to Be Thankful

While we have many things to be thankful for, I think Matt and I both agree that this little man is what we are most thankful for this year.  I never imagined that I could love someone so much.  Matt and I will catch ourselves just staring at him when he is playing on the floor. When he cries, I want to do everything in my power to make him feel better.  He is becoming more and more active and adventerous.  Today, he scooted backwards from our kitchen table to the fridge. Caleb was nine months old on Friday.  I think the days of him sitting in the chair with his sign are officially over.  This little man is on the move!

Besides Caleb, we are very blessed with a wonderful support system of family and friends.  Our Thanksgiving Break was spent with many of these important people.  We spent Thanksgiving with my family, Friday with my mom and grandma, Friday evening with my college friends, Saturday evening with Matt's family and friends, and Sunday with our families as we celebrated Caleb's baptism.  I can't think of a better way to spend 4 days. 

Here are some pics from Caleb's Baptism at St. John's (the same church where Matt and I got married).  Pastor Manning was wonderufl!    It was a very special day for us and our families.  Caleb was great during the whole thing.  He loves bathtime, so the water didn't bother him at all.  Now that the baptism party is over, I guess I better start planning his first birthday!
