So much to be Thankful for

So we had a wonderful Thanksgiving...Twice. The weekend before Thanksgiving we went to Idaho and had Thanksgiving with the whole Cobbley family. It was so nice to have everyone together, to spend time just relazing, and catching up. My dad had to work Thanksgiving and the 2 days after and Steve and Shawn had to work the days around Thanksgiving so it just worked out better to do it the weekend before. The day before Thanksgiving Mia got to spend the day with Nana and her cousin Lucy who at the age of 4 was excited to be able to have someone littler than her to look after. I definitely need to get pictures of Mia and her cousins because they are so cute together. Wednesday night Mia and Dad had pie night with the Borrowman clan while I worked. I was kinda sad I missed that but not much I could do. Thanksgiving day, Grandma came down from Idaho and uncle Shawn came over and we had Thanksgiving dinner again. I just sat there thinking how much I have to be thankful for. I have a wonderful family, wonderful in-laws, and now we have a wonderful little family of our own. Little Mia is just amazing and I can't believe how blessed we are to have her in our family. Mia was very tired on Thanksgiving so Monty and Shawn spent about 15 minutes trying to time it just right to get a picture of her yawning.

Mia's enjoying 2 new toys, her little gym and her swing. She hasn't quite gotten the hang of reaching up for the toys hanging down but she enjoys looking at them.

She loves her swing and often takes her afternoon nap there. When she's fussy she calms right down in the swing (well most the time).

Hanging with dad with a full tummy face.

She's starting to smile more and more and while we were in Idaho she started cooing. It's the sweetest sound to hear. She's not doing it a ton but usually at least once a day we can get her talking to us. (She's a little behind what most babies would be doing at 2 1/2 months cuz she was a little early).
