Tomorrow will be Cohen's first Thanksgiving, and we've had a great day prepping for it. This morning, we took Cohen to ImaginOn to play with his girl, Lillian. After he got his wiggles out, we headed to Harris Teeter to pick up our turkey and other ingredients for our dinner tomorrow. Cohen loved riding around in the grocery cart, looking around at all the craziness this holiday brings. During Cohen's nap, I made two peanut butter pies, pumpkin bread and prepped the stuffing. Cohen then enjoyed a boys trip to Home Depot. We finished off the day by pushing Cohen's fire truck down the street, eating dinner and story time.
It is hard to believe a year ago, my belly was about to pop. I went to the hospital late Thanksgiving night because I couldn't feel Cohen moving. I knew the nurses had to be laughing at me, thinking, "Here's another first-time mom who ate too much on Thanksgiving." Sure enough, while we were there, I started having contractions, three minutes apart. Luckily, they stopped after a couple of hours, and Cohen held off another week in my belly. I'm so happy that this time of year will always remind me of the joys and excitement of being pregnant with my sweet, sweet boy.
