35 days...

5 weeks from right now we'll be fighting over who gets to hold the latest Turner Baby. Hard to believe, huh? I'm down to one week appointments now - holy smokes! Had a great weekend this past weekend, Shawn didn't have to work -yipee! We had family weekend - as Shawn put it - "I'm not letting any of you out of my sight all weekend." And we did it! We started out on Saturday morning with a trip to Science City - the kids' absolute favorite place. We have a great time there - and Saturday mornings rock - no one is there but the Turners! We played all morning into the afternoon and then finally came home. Shawn and the kids got the yard cleaned up, leaves raked and grass mowed. Shawn has put a ton of work into the yard this year and it is looking awesome. I'm kind of sad to see everything dying off with winter starting here. After church on Sunday we headed out to the Legends to the coolest McD's for breakfast and playing on the playground. I got some Christmas shopping done and picked out fabric with my mom for all new family stockings!! Very excited about this project...I'm sure mom is home stitching away as I type. Shawn and I's favorite show is 24 - and they had a 2 hour movie/episode last night - so cool. The new season doesn't start til January - this got us pretty excited for it! Now we are gearing up for Thanksgiving - we are headed to the farm on Thursday for some turkey and then the in-laws are keeping all the kids so Shawn and I can SHOP all day Friday!! YIPEE! Black Friday might be my favorite day of the year - not counting Christmas Eve, my b-day and the day I got married, and of course the days my kids were born...but anyway - I love Black Friday - I love getting up at 3:30 in the morning to head out to shop! I love the excitement and I love the crazy mean people throwing elbows in the aisles. Can you think of anything more fun?!?!? And the bestest part is that I get to spend the whole day with my husband. I am sooo looking forward to it - so in advance, thanks so much Ed and Norma!! We love you!!
I think that's about all I have to report for now - well, last week was a bit rough - Austin was having some...uhhh...discipline "issues"? Not sure how to state that. Anyway, had to go back and do some reading - read some love and logic books and some other parenting books and seem to have him back on track - well, as much on track as a 4 year old boy can be!
Hope you are having the time of your life!

ps - eat up some good home cooked turkey this week!
