An especially thankful Thanksgiving

On Thanksgiving we hit a milestone in the pregnancy; six months! The pictures attached prove that I am in fact pregnant and not just feeling big after an overindulgent meal of lasagna and turkey (yes, lasagna is always on the menu at the McCormick/Vitale functions - no complaints here!).

Update on Little Mack -
This kid has been super active as of late. This morning in yoga I was in a pose most similar to that of a pretzel and as soon as I got out of the pose, the most uncomfortable complete body roll let me know the kid didn't approve of me cramping his/her space. I wish Brian could have been there to feel the baby moving because I'm pretty sure I felt a limb of some sort sticking out of my body. Kind of creepy and definitely reminded me of the movie “Alien”, but nonetheless, exciting to know our baby is healthy and active.

We have so much to be thankful for, especially this Thanksgiving. We have our health, the love of our friends and family, a roof over our heads to shelter us from the cold, abundant healthy food for our bellies, and the excitement of a new member of our family arriving in a few short months. Be thankful for the little things. They are what truly matter. The rest is just gravy…

Happy Thanksgiving to all!!!

Here's a few added pictures taken at six months, one day.
