Thanksgiving #2

I had this blog all ready to go Wednesday night and my computer ate it when I clicked "publish"! I guess it needed some food for its own Thanksgiving. ;-) I had to restart the computer, so I went to bed early (at 8:30pm!!) instead of waiting for the computer to reboot.

******************
We just finished Thanksgiving #2 and I am stuffed!!! My mom and younger brother came over for Thanksgiving dinner tonight. James has to work all night and had to finish getting ready for work right after dinner, so it was just easier to do it here. My younger brother, Kenny, is attending college in Kansas and had not yet seen our new apartment, so it worked out well.

Here's a picture of the table with some of the food.

Nana, Kenny (the youngest of us four siblings), and Ian. (The stuff for everyone from my Pampered Chef party had just arrived - hence all the boxes in the background.)

Uncle Kenny and Ian playing in the mirror.

Now Ian was being a bit fussy, so I didn't take very many pictures. However, I do have a few others to share. Ian's new favorite toy, as of Monday night, is a full bottle of baby lotion! He discovered it while James was helping him sit up on his changing table (which is really a dresser and has some extra room for things like baby lotion). At first, he could barely pick it up. For some reason, he loved that though. It was a good new challenge for him, I guess! Now he can move that bottle of lotion around any old way he wants to.

Going for the kill!

Got it!

And dropped it back on the tray. So much fun!

We hope everyone is gearing up for a great Thanksgiving!
