Happy Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving at the beach this year. It was a great long weekend. The boys fried Turkey and mom and I made the sides. The weather was beautiful. Aidan enjoyed his first Thanksgiving meal, turkey and all. Enjoy the pictures!

Thanksgiving morning!



Yummy!

Raleigh Christmas Parade

James, Mom, Grandma, and I took Aidan to the Raleigh Christmas Parade. It was a really chilly morning so we brought hot drinks and blankets. We got there really early to get good seats and grabbed a coffee while we waited for the Parade to start!

Downtown Raleigh



Waiting for the Parade to start!


There were some great floats!

And saw Santa for the first time!


We had a great time!

Aidan loves to visit with his Great Grandparents.


Last year James and I bought our first "family" Christmas tree. We had just moved to Raleigh and got a great deal with the after Christmas sale! Before that we used a tree that I bought in college. It was so sad. It looked like the tree from Charlie Brown's Christmas. It would hardly hold up an ornament. It became a family joke. We are so excited about our new tree. It is prelit and I think 7 1/2 feet tall. We put up our tree really early this year. After the parade we couldn't wait. Here is James reading the directions on our new tree. We are starting our family tradition this year and getting out our decorations the week of Thanksgiving. James is like a little kid, and seriously has been talking about decorating for weeks now!

Long day! Is it time to open presents yet???

Just being a boy

Hey everyone! I am getting so big! I have 3 bottom teeth on the bottom and working on my top 2. Mommy can see them coming in. I love to play on the floor and roll and scoot all over the place. I laugh all the time and like to make funny noises and faces! I look like my daddy more and more each day.

Mommy had to work so me and daddy had a boys day! He took these great pictures of me!



After daddy went to work one morning, mommy let me play with his tooth brush. It felt so good on my gums.


Mom can I get one of these?


We all went to Carolina Ale House to celebrate Uncle Corey's birthday! It was tons of fun!


This is me haning out with the big people!!


Uncle Corey loves to hold me!


I love the plaid jammies that Grammy got me. I look like a big boy!


Taking a nap with daddy. I am finally getting over being sick.


I got sick for the first time and it was not fun! My temperature got over 103!! Everyone took really good care of me, but I missed all my friends from playgroup! Here I am in daddy's chair. Mommy spoiled me all week long!
