I'm totally bummed that I didn't finish my month of Thankful posts. I still have a lot that are in the "draft" stage and may post them later. It's never too late to be Thankful, right? You may be asking yourself why I couldn't keep up with such a small task. I have asked myself that same question time and time again. Maybe I've been having too much fun with the freedom afforded me by a second car? Oh yeah, the car! What a wonderful creation! I'll just show you some of my favorite things about this car. First, as you can see it is immaculate! I always worry that buying a used car means that it'll be all gross and stained. Not so. We've lucked out twice with both of our cars and I am sooo soo happy with this one!
It's got all of the standard amenities of an Odyssey. It even has the little flip up cup holder in-between the two front seats. Love that.
All the knobs and dials work and again, they are so clean!
But my all-time favorite feature on this baby is the sliding doors! I'm sure you think I'm a bit of a geek for loving these so much, but I really do!
I mean, how great is it that you can be walking with your arms full and press a button and by the time you get there it's open and waiting for you?
See what I mean? Look ma' no hands!
Oh, uh, oops.... I forgot that was in there.....
You sure you want to know?
This folks, is a baby. OUR baby. And he is most definitely the reason I didn't keep up on my Thankful posts this last month. ;) Can you forgive me?
Because once I saw this face I was a goner.
We still have until 5pm December 4th until he's definitely ours. (they've already signed, it's just an additional waiting period)
We are waiting (definitely waiting, I'm stuck in Tennessee forever) and praying. If you'd like to add your prayers to ours I know it couldn't hurt. ;)
Samuel 11/17
We had the best Thanksgiving ever, with so much to be greatful for and will be forever Thankful for Sam and his loving Birthparents.
