This Thanksgiving was so pleasant, if I do say so myself. We started the morning off with a little jog around our little town we live in. That is, Mommy ran the Turkey Trot while you and Daddy and Sister watched and then your sister did her first race. She won, of course (at least in Mommy and Daddy's eyes) and you got to enjoy it all from your stroller!
After the race, we headed straight home and rushed around to get ready and jump in the car and head to Mimi's house. We were trying to get you in the car so you could nap, and while we did succeed, you didn't nap very long. No biggie though, you were fine and you took a little nap before everyone arrived for the big feast. It was SOOOO nice to pull up into Mimi's house and basically do nothing! Mimi had it all set up and everyone else was making food since we had to make the drive, so we just got ourselves prettied up, took a few pics and were ready to eat!
And what a meal it was! All the usual including multiple potatoes and the green stuff. You faves were mashed potatoes and green beans and of course a roll! Oh, and of course, the cupcake I caught Lynnie hand feeding you, on the table nonetheless!!!
You both were caught red handed!! That's okay, I snuck a few too many sweets myself. And you did sleep rather well that night, so no complaints. The next day was even more relaxing for you (and me, too). We just hung out at Mimi's house, got the girls back over to play and then went to the movies while you stayed home with Mimi and napped - I think Mimi needed it more than you!! Friday night was a different story. You have SOOO reached that stage where you do not want to sit in a high chair, especially at a noisy Mexican restaurant when there are 20 of us at a table. Goodness gracious child, I was exhausted after leaving that place, which was a smidge earlier than I had planned. This soon will pass, I know - that's what I keep telling myself at least!
On Saturday, Mommy and Daddy headed with Sarah to a fun tailgate while you hung out with Mimi all day. You ran errands with her and helped her get her fall things put away. Again, another nice relaxing day.
Sunday morning we headed home and got back to our schedule and getting ready for all the Christmas fun!!!
Sweet turkey, you had a great Thanksgiving with the family!! Love you!
