Thanksgiving revisited

Ya, so I'm a little behind the ball here... but here are some adorable photos from Thanksgiving day. I bought this cute t-shirt that says "little" then has a turkey. Too cute!



First, I'd like to explain Josh has been so gosh darn wiggly that it's been difficult to get a decent pic of him. It also hurts that our daytime lighting has been crap. Here's a fine example:



Then the boy finds the lens cap way too interesting to look at the camera.. I love the "studying" look.


Then he wiggles around the couch some more...


Paparazzi: no more photos, please...


Finally, a clear shot of the adorable shirt and adorable boy (ignore messy house in the background!)


As for the details of our Thanksgiving, we went to Dave's parents house for lunch, where we had the usual turkey feast. Dave and I made mashed potatoes and blueberry pie. Josh did surprising well. In fact, since Thanksgiving, Josh has been a much better all around. Anyway, we ate lots of mashed potatoes, carrots, maybe just a little turkey (by mistake--as an aside, the boy does not like meat. Which is just weird because he is so much like his dad, and his dad would live on meat only if he could.) Someone gave him some cranberry jelly, and that was it, all he wanted. Then when it came to be dessert time, he had some blueberry pie and even though he was wearing a bib, he managed to get blueberry EVERYWHERE! I washed his shirt when we got home, but it was very much stained. So we go home, Josh takes a nap, I think I may have taken a little one too.... Then I go to Thomaston to pick up Gigi and her friend Irene, while Dave says home and waits for Josh to wake up. Amazing, we both arrived and the Madre/Padre's at the same time. There we had a very similar meal, Josh ate most of the same things (I was much more careful about making sure he'd eaten enough "real" food before digging into cranberry jelly....) He also enjoyed pie with Daddy, I believe it was Boston Creme. It was a long day, and I hope Christmas is more relaxing.
