The month of November is certainly an unforgettable one for us. Of course Leah's birthday will be one of the most special days this month, but we sure had a lot of other firsts as well.
Cleaning up the final fall leaves from the yard. The kids had fun "helping" by running, jumping in, and throwing the leaves around. Thank goodness we only have one tree in our yard....
After school snuggles on mommy's belly bump :)
A beautiful day to play at the park with my #1 little boy :)
Sporting his new haircut and snuggles with Mommy while Hannah is at school
Then our beautiful baby girl Leah arrived! Such a whirlwind of events which brought her into our lives.
Here's a funny picture Grandma took while Hannah and Noah spent the night with them while we were at the hospital.
Our first day home as a family of 5!
A visit from Uncle Paul and Aunt Megan on that first day. They picked up some jersey Giant subs for dinner! (Uncle Paul refused to hold Leah- she was too tiny!)

Hannah lost her FIRST tooth!!! It was so loose but she just wouldn't pull it out. She ended up biting down hard on a Laffy Taffy and pulling it out. But she didn't realize she had pulled it out on the first tug so she put the candy back in her mouth and yanked again. Then she looked at the candy and saw it was stuck to it. Silly girl! She was so brave and didn't cry!
All ready for the tooth fairy now! That very generous tooth fairy left her one golden dollar!
November was good to us in so many ways!! We are so thankful for all the special blessings we have been given!
