Thanksgiving was great for seeing family and having a little time off of work. I forgot how long it had been since I had several days - I've been trying to rebuild my vacation and sick leave for almost 2 years since Kate was born! I'm looking forward to Christmas and New Year's - more holidays!!
James wasn't able to eat anything on Thanksgiving; he had a stomach bug! :( Kate and I went to my parents to visit. Lunch was amazing as always: chicken and dressing casserole, green beans, cream corn, rolls and cranberry sauce.
My mom had a spoon at the table for Kate, which she hasn't gotten the hang of using before. she usually gets frustrated, and we either feed her or we take it away so she can use her hands.
Thanksgiving was different - Dad helped her get food on her spoon, and she ate a ton of cream corn!!
Yummy!!
She finished before we even got started.. typical. She ran to the living room to get my old rocking chair. She brought it to the kitchen so she could rock while we ate. Of course she came back for chocolate cake - the little stinker nearly ate my entire slice! :)
Now Kate is doing really well with her spoon and fork. As I'm learning with everything kid related - you have to wait until they are ready, or it just won't work. I think she's eating baked beans here.
And this was spaghetti.
Penne pasta alfredo! She is good using a fork, too.
Lisa, Mel and Melissa also came to stay with us on the weekend. We watched a lot of football... some of us were happy with the outcome, and some were not. I will say... go dawgs!! :)
Here's Kate showing off her new red coat. Good thing we have it - it's so cold outside now.
Airplane!!
Wow, I am soooo thirsty. Lot's of playing. Good thing my Kai-lan car got me to Mom's bar for some juice!
ah, thank you Ma-ma. Just what I needed.
blah!!!! What?!
this is NOT juice.. it's MILK!!!! whatchyou-talkin-bout, Mommy??
I've had too much juice today? But I LOVE juice.
But you say this is Horizon Organic Whole Milk? 
Wait, i hear my phone ringing..
check out my pony tail!
And my bunny rabbit. I love to hug her.
bye-bye! x0xo
