Exciting Week Coming Up

Thanksgiving day I will progress to pureed foods. I am very excited about that. I am preparing some dishes that I can freeze in 3 oz quntities. Will make it easier during the week whe I go to work. This coming week I only work Monday and will be off the rest of the week. My brother lives in NY while I live in PA. Tuesday I will pack up and stay with his family for the week.

I was trying to work on a menu for myself for the week.

Well today my sister in law called to tell me she spent a few hours on the net yesterday looking up blogs from sleevers to get ideas of what I will be able to eat. She told me she went shopping and picked up SF pudding, greek yogurt, tuna, canned chicken and is making a pot of fat free refried Beans. She also has squash, carrots, and green beans. She was so excited shopping for this stage of my diet for me. She even picked up SF ice pops. She said, just bring your shakes if you need them and your Vitamins, we are all set here for you!

I cant express how much I love her. She is such a caring and wonderful person and my brother made a phenomenal choice in his life partner. This thanksgiving is going to be so exciting because for the first time in forever, i will not stuff myself like the turkey! It will be about family and enjoying company more than anything. My brother then told me when dessert is served, that he will go for a walk with me so the temptation wont pose a problem.

I am really blessed. Truly truly blessed.

So excited for this next phase!!

That is great!! You have people who care for you, and supports you. What a way to bring in Thanksgiving for 2013, enjoy yourself..:)

What a great family. Will you adopt me???????

Wow - your sister-in-law gets a Gold Star! How thoughtful to spend the time and energy.

Enjoy your stay there...I would suggest moving in for good! :-)

What a wonderful family you have! You really, truly are blessed.

Your thread made me so happy! I agree with everyone they sound like amazing people. But I have to believe that you have done things right with them to earn their love and support, so don't forget to take a little credit for it :)

I hope you and your son have a wonderful holiday.

Thank you all, I do have an amazing brother and SIL. My bro and I are 4 yrs apart but are super close. We speak numerous times throughout the day , think alike and pretty much have the same reaction to things. We have been this close all our lives.

We also see each other at least every other week.

They have 2 boys whom I am crazy about and he is the same with my son.

I am very lucky indeed!

Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!

To read a story about a nice sister on law is refreshing! And wow yours sounds awesome!

Same with your brother. It truly just put a smile on my face and tears to my eyes reading this...

Have a wonderful week.
