Thanksgiving Recap

We hope everyone has recovered from their Turkey Comas! We had so much fun and were so busy. Here is a quick recap of what we did this weekend.

Wed night we went to Nana and Grandad's house, we got there at 9 and everyone was already asleep. Mommy and Daddy attempted to get us to join the club but that just didn't happen. We were so excited about Thanksgiving that we were practically up the whole night, Mommy and Daddy must have been so excited as well cause they stayed up with us. Thanksgiving morning we hung out with Nana, Grandad, Great Uncles Greg and Chris, their daughters and Kerri while Mommy. Aunt CoCo, Uncle Todd and Uncle Steve went to run a 5k..... Daddy was supposed to join them but he had SO much fun the night before he went back to bed once Nana woke up. We were bored with our entertainment... and a little tired from our all-nighter, so we took an early nap.

After we woke up we spent the day playing with everyone. Miss Sara and Mr. Justin brought Mason over for dinner so we all got to play together. There were 6 kids under the age of 5 there. (1 almost 5 year old, 3 2 year olds, 1 1 year old and a 5 month old) We had so much fun chasing after each other.
Here is Mason contemplating what to do to Kerri


While we played upstairs the grown ups worked on dinner and setting the table.

Finally we all got to sit down and enjoy the yummy food!

So after about 15 minutes of eating the adults were still talking and eating so Mommy put Elmo's World on and we were confined to a mini-baby jail.

The next day we went over the river and through the woods..... and over a mountain... and through some snow... and stuck in traffic.... and had an emergency of the upchuck variety..... anyways... we were on our way to Grandma and Grandpap's house for the remainder of the weekend.

SNOW!

We got to Grandma and Grandpap's house fairly late, but the next morning we were up and moving and running around every where. We put our big jackets on and went outside and met their neighbors puppy "Chloe". She was so excited to see us.

However some of us weren't that excited about Chloe

Aunt Heidi came to visit as well and we all had lunch together. The weekend went by so fast and before we knew it we were back in the car heading home. Luckily there was no snow, or traffic or emergency of the upchuck variety.


So tired!

OMG

Holy Cranberry Sauce Batman! Thanksgiving is THE BEST HOLIDAY EVER!!!!!!! Of course we have yet to sample the fare of ALL the holidays yet (27 days till Christmas!!) We spent the day playing with Mommy, Daddy, Nana, Grandad, Uncle Stephen, Great Uncles Greg and Chris and their daughters Megan and Rachel and Pop-Pop. We then took a nap and got ready for the big feast, we had turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, green beans, bread, gravy, cranberry sauce and for dessert we got our very first taste of dessert.... some cherry pie. Can we tell you how AWESOME cherry pie is. We kept signing for "more" and we did get some more. Mommy took some pictures of the table and a really great photo of Daddy and us.... but then she got so excited she dropped the camera and broke it. So until we get home and she can put the camera on the computer through the printer... here are some photos she made Grandad take towards the end of eating our fabulous dinner.

Hope everyone had a fabulous Thanksgiving!

Goings Ons

While we would like to say that both of us a fabulous weekend visiting Grandma and Grandpap while they were here.... Nate unfortunately can't say that. He has had the worlds worst diaper rash since Thursday or Friday. It got really bad over the weekend. Everyone was giving him baking soda baths and putting so much stuff on his butt. He didn't want to poop so he has been prolonging it from healing.

Today however Alex had an eye appointment to check on how his eye is doing post-surgery. Dr W was so excited with how well everything looks, however his right eye is still stronger than his left so on weekends Alex has to go back to getting drops put into his right eye to help strengthen up his left. While we were there we ran into Dr L (our pediatrician) who was taking her kids to see Dr W. She chatted with Mommy who went into detail about Nate's butt and Dr L suggested giving him prune stuff and some oil to help move things along and make him poop so everything could heal. Since then some poop has come out but Mommy is convinced that there will be more coming out soon.

Tomorrow we are off to Nana and Grandad's for Thanksgiving. We are going down ahead of Daddy so Mommy can visit with Uncle Stephen, and Great Uncles Greg and Chris and her cousins Megan and Rachel. Rachel is about our age and Megan is almost 4, so it should be fun to play with them. Plus tomorrow Aunt Courtney and Uncle Todd are stopping by for an over night visit before they go visit Uncle Todd's family. We hope they bring their dog Felix with them.

If we don't get to update before Thursday. HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!!!!!!
