This has definitely been an interesting week...I have been going back and forth from feeling ill to feeling well, in no time at all....currently, feeling well.

Hayden has been taking some new fun risks lately. Particularly with the stairs. He is probably 80% efficient going up AND down....and unfortunately has bit it one and a half times. Currently searching for the balance between letting him learn the hard way and keeping him safe. Hmmm..
About gives me a heart attack each time!

Speaking of heart attacks.....what on earth is with this new 'recommendation' for mammograms only after your 50?! I guess I thought cancer research had 'come so far', but this is ridiculous! And it's easy to say, well...I'll still get checked out and have a mammogram when I'm 40 or whatever, but the catch to that becoming, if it's not recommended, insurance won't cover it.
Can you say, population control?

Next weekend we will be celebrating Thanksmas.
What?! You've never heard of it?
What?! You've never heard of it?
My husband's family made it up. It really is a fun holiday defined by lots of family, food, Black Friday shopping, Thanksgiving and Christmas all jammed into one. It's the biggest family event I have ever been to in my whole life.

For the gift exchange next week.....we're buying T-Shirts {a themed gift exchange} for cousins and kid cousins. I am at a loss for t-shirt ideas....Would something like this work? Nebraska fans....AND they have sleeves?? I wonder...........

Thanksmas--I love it!
And sometime you're gonna have to make potato cookies for me -- because I think they sound gross but they must not be :)
Awesome! I didn't know they had Husker Snuggies - maybe I'll have to get one of those :)
We celebrated Christmas at Thanksgiving on year, but we called it "Harvest Time Christmas" :)
I just might have to try out that recipe too!
I should probably invest in a defibrillator (for myself) if my third son is as daring with the stairs as my first two were. I too struggle with the same balance of over-protectiveness and appropriate caution. It doesn't help that my middle child is so "brave" that his grandpa announced that the X-Games had to have been created with Eli in mind. ... Yeah, I think a defibrillator will be in order :)
Ooh you linked!
Hopefully you're getting great shopping done... In the next few days when I have time, I'm planning to blog about our day and what I got at Tanger Outlet!
Thanks again for hanging out with us- we had a great time!
Oh Happy Thanksmas! It sounds like a lot of fun. Food, family, shopping...what could be better?
