Thanksgiving

Colin was 6 weeks old this past Thursday. As of 2 weeks ago, he weighed 10 lbs 6 oz. Thanksgiving was busy for all of us. Colin made his first trip out of town on Wendesday that week to see my family and to enjoy the holiday. Friday we came back to stay in Des Moines and went to visit Brad's family on Saturday. Sunday we had a his mom's side Christmas. Coming home on Sunday was crazy. A normal 3 hour drive turned in to 5 hours due to weather. We definitely would have stayed in Lawler one more night if we had known the roads would be so bad as we averaged about 40 miles/hour coming home on highway and the interstate. Needless to say Brad was extremely nervous driving with Colin in the car. Kyle (Brad's brother) was also driving home with his 7 month pregnant wife so the boys were both pretty stressed. On Monday Brad ended up staying home with us so we put up the Christmas tree and decorated the house for Christmas.
