Gobble till you Wobble!

We had a nice relaxing, but filling Thanksgiving at my mom's. She worked hard cooking and preparing a wonderful evening! Lawrence (our good friend and neighbor) joined us and took some fun family shots after dinner. It is so rare to get a recorded memory of all of us together!

The table is ready to DIG in!

Drue started off NOT wanting to be in the pictures!

The Streak of the BOYS continue!

We found out on Monday, October 19th that we will be welcoming yet another boy into the Johnson/Dean/Grim family! It has been 21 years and 16 straight boys since we have had a baby girl in the Grim family. 23 years since my cousin Sara (the last girl) was born in the Dean family. It is the 4th boy between Si and his brother. It is also the 8th boy (no girls) born in the neighborhood since we moved in. I tried to ask the doctor where the 50/50 odds are in this equation. He said that some other family is having 16 straight girls :)

We are just thrilled to be expecting another healthy baby! He will arrive into a family so ready to love and care for him. Both his big brothers knew it was going to be a boy long before we found out and they are *ready* to share their toys with him.

No names yet! If you ask Lucas he is convinced that his name is going to be Tyler. I think he has Si pretty convinced at this point as well. We have NO idea where Tyler came from and why he is SO insistent. It is cute!

As far as another baby...... Si and always thought we would stop at two kids together. We are still leaning toward our family being complete in March, but I have to say that I would really LOVE to have a girl someday. So....we might have to try one more time!

I absolutely LOVE baby feet!

Yep! There is NO DOUBT he is a boy!

Trick or Treat!!! Happy Halloween!

This year Lucas was really excited about Halloween! The night before Halloween, we went to his future preschool (he starts in January) for some indoor treats, games, and shows! On Halloween we hosted a neighborhood party of appetizers and then Trick or Treating in the "hood". The boys ate "mummy" hot dogs and lots of treats! It was a perfect night (except for the rain).

My Dad and Cindy got Lucas an adorable astronaut costume at Kennedy Space Center!
