What are we thankful for?.......

Mandy: "Derek, what are you thankful for?"
Derek: "I'm thankful for my wonderful wife, my daughter, our home, the gospel, our friends, family, and the fact that we live in a state with some of the best gun rights in the country :)"
Mandy: "All right"
What is Mandy thankful for? I am also grateful for my wonderful and most patient husband on the face of this planet. Who loves me regardless of my many weaknesses. I am grateful for my dear sweet daughter who is so pure and innocent and brings the GREATEST joy into my life. I love being a mother and am grateful for my Heavenly Father who trusts me with this great calling in life; to be a wife and mother. I am grateful that Emma is so quick to forgive, and is a great example to me. I love my family. I am grateful for my friends who stand by me and are there for me. MUCH MUCH to be thankful for.

What is Emma thankful for? Well, if we had to guess what Emma's grateful for :) it would be for her Mommy and Daddy (we hope), for all her family and her friends, her minnie mouse, cereal, grapes, ducks, "Super Why" (tv show), her monkey, her boots, her winter hat, etc...and I think the list goes on :)
What is the Frazier family especially grateful for?










For our sweet BOY on the way!!!!
We're thinking the picture gives it away pretty well. hahahhaha. Yes, we just found out on Tuesday and wanted to hold off on the announcement for this special Thanksgiving Day! The ultra sound went great, baby is healthy and growing well. It was funny because the night before I had a dream that we were having a boy. Most of the pregnancy we haven't been quite sure what we're having. For a while I was leaning more toward a girl, naturally :) But this past week I've been leaning toward boy. But when all of was said and done in the ultra sound I still was shocked! We are SO excited.
Now, we just have to get Emma used to the idea that this little one is a boy since she's been saying, "Dirl" =girl the whole time :) hahahhaha. She's going to be such a GREAT big sister.
It's amazing because before we even got pregnant, we felt that a little boy was on his way to our family, sure enough, here he comes!!
