We stayed at Papa and Nana's house since we just got carpet installed on the 23rd and our house wasn't ready for sleeping in, that and it smelled like new carpet. New carpet smell is nothing like new car smell. We borrowed a Pack-n-Play and the kids slept upstairs and we slept downstairs. Sam woke up at his usual pre-dawn time and got to snuggle in bed for awhile.
Paul was running the Turkey Trot so he had to go to the race and I went home to find some clothes in the mess. Once I got back home I packed up the kids and we headed to the airport to get Aunt Amanda.
Once we got back we spent the rest of the day hanging out and eating, oh and crawling and climbing and playing. Sam decided he does know how to crawl on the 23rd and was perfecting his skills on Thanksgiving. His favorite places to crawl to were where the shoes where and where ever Sadie was.
I failed to get a family picture and we almost forgot our traditional table picture. We fed Sam and Emily a little bit of Thanksgiving food. They had: mashed potatoes, gravy, green beans (the non-pureed variety), rolls, and cranberry sauce. Emily LOVED everything. She yummed with every bite. She kept clapping her hands, which I think is her sign for more, and grabbing for more to eat. Sam wasn't so sure. He was a little more tired because he didn't take a nap with dad on the couch like Emily did.
After eating the girls went on a short walk around the neighborhood. Then we went back and had pie. We took our traditional family table picture then because we almost forgot too. We did forget to get a family picture on our first Thanksgiving...
After pie we went back home and I rested before the big night of shopping. Mom and Amanda picked me up at 11 pm and we stayed out until almost 6 am! Crazy...
