Give Thanks

We have a lot to be thankful for this holiday season: our families for their immense support this Fall during a very difficult time and for Evie's health.

We took a road trip to Raleigh, NC for Thanksgiving to celebrate with Aunt Jen, Uncle Matt, Grandmom, and Great Uncle Mike. Aunt Jen is 1 month away from her due date, so going to NC made sense this year.

Evie was a gem both ways in the car. She slept for 4 of the 5 hours and traffic wasn't too bad around DC. We arrived at our destinations happy :)

Visiting Aunt Jen and Uncle Matt was a sweet deal this year. Due to expecting a little one in the next month, they have a full stocked house of baby stuff and no baby yet. We basically brought Evie and her clothes. Evie adjusted to her new setting immediately (their dog helped). She slept through the night all 3 nights in an unfamiliar bed. I like to think all her hospital stays have created a flexible baby when it comes to caregivers and beds.

We enjoyed the beautiful 70 degree weather in the south by doing some Black Friday shopping, dart throwing in the garage, and putzing around downtown Raleigh. It was a great first long road trip for Evie. No complaints here!
