I was wrong

I was wrong, I thought Daniel didn't notice the stares that people give, but he does. Saturday we went shopping to get Beau some new clothes. While walking through the store I was pushing Daniel, we were wandering around just killing time, trying to keep up with Emma and Nate while Beau was in the dressing room. Suddenly Daniel asked if we could please go home now, he was ready to leave. I asked why and he replied with a I'm tired of people staring at me. I said honey no one is staring and without missing a beat he said she is just as a 2 year old in a cart rolled past. I said she little she stares at everyone. He then told me about the people who had stared. I guess, he does notice it, I just didn't know. Now I'm even more self conscious because I now realize he is aware and it bothers him.

27- Medical devices

Daniel just got a medical ID bracelet, and I am thankful they make these, that there is a way in an emergency and I am not there they can see he has a medical condition and pull out the ID information.

26- my sewing skills

I am thankful I can sew. Not only can I sew I can read a pattern. I am thankful I get to Make Emma cute clothes, my kids blankets, and anything else I want.

25-"Uncle" Dan

I am thankful Beau has a friend, that is basically family, down here. Having Dan here has been such a blessing. My kids call him Uncle, and it's nice to know I have someone I can call in an emergency that will come give blessings or drive Beau three hours to pick up a new car cause I'm too sick, or babysit, the list is endless. I don't think it is a coincidence that we ended up in Austin within a month of each other, by total chance. There definitely was a bigger plan there. The kids love him and he is good at eating leftovers so I let him come over when ever he wants.

This is the kids telling spooky stories with him, one night before bed. Emma ended up doing such a good job she scared herself and woke him up in the middle of the night. haha.

24- Beaus Car

I am thankful for Beaus new car. It's fun to drive and it is nice to be a two car family and have 2 reliable cars.It also saves us gas money. plus Daniels walker fits in the trunk so we can take it when we run errands as a family, if we want to.

Oh and we can't forget Beau looks good driving it.

Black Friday

So for the first time in four years I did not go Black Friday shopping, I stayed home a slept. The only place I went was to CVS to get butterfly band aids and liquid band aid. Because Nathan smacked Emma in the head with the neighbors car door. He wasn't supposed to be playing in the car. Poor girl, however she didn't need stitches and is healing up nicely.

It looks alot better now, this picture was right after.

Tika LOVES Emma, she wanted to love on her. I swear dogs can just sense when you need them.

22- Thanksgiving

This should be a thankful post, But instead it's about Thanksgiving dinner. For thanksgiving we went over to a friends house just right around the corner, she is my best friend here in Round Rock. I was really lucky to have found someone so fast who lived right down the street, who has kids similar ages as mine and who has similar interests as me. We split Dinner duties, I did the turkey and stuffing, she did the rest. I was awesome, and we all had a good time. I did miss family, but it's nice to know we have friends, and than in a few short weeks we can go home and see family.
