Thanksgiving Gratitude

Happy Thanksgiving!  We woke up to another dusting of snow so it looks like it may be a "white" Thanksgiving which is fine by us, as we'll be bundled up inside enjoying watching the snow fall and eating way too much turkey.

We really do have so much to be thankful for, above all our family and friends and the amazing little girl still currently in my tummy.  Little one: we can't tell you how much we love you and how often we think about you.  You will add so much fulfillment to our lives and we can't wait to finally meet you in a short few weeks.  You truly are a blessing.

Enjoy this beautiful day!

34 weeks and lots to celebrate

At 34 weeks, we are nearing the home stretch with 4 - 6 weeks to go...that is if our little Christmas Miracle decides she wants to arrive on time.  It's been a wonderful week for us all and we were blessed to hear her heartbeat and get confirmation she is cozy in my tummy and doing just fine.  We were also honored with two showers this weekend to help us prepare for her arrival where great advice and inside tips were shared from family and friends and little baby Skurski was certainly spoiled with some very special gifts.

Thank you to everyone for making this experience such an incredible and memorable one.  We are very lucky to have you all in our lives and for all of the love and support you have shown us.

Couple's Shower:
A festive evening filled with good food, baby trivia and laughs and such thoughtful gifts, but above all, a memorable time with our nearest and dearest friends.  Thank you: Jenn, Jamie, Hillary and Nate for hosting an unforgettable evening.


Family Shower:
The perfect afternoon paired with homemade cupcakes and candy, famous mothers, cuddly blankets and darling little outfits, and an all-around good time with family.  A big thank you to: Rita, Christy and my amazing nieces Katie and Megan for your thoughtfulness and creativity and for a wonderful day honoring baby Skurski.
