Happy Thanksgiving

We hope that everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Ours was quiet and uneventful which with a newborn and 2 year old in the house, is just like we like it! Greg did all of the cooking which of course was fabulous! I made a pumpkin pie which is completely gone today. It was a beautiful day outside. Greg took Jack out on the golf cart for a bit even! And other than that, we vegged around the house. Here are some pics i took during the day...





On tuesday of this week Jack had his "Feast" at school. His class was in charge of making the trailmix. They also had pizza, cookies, fruit and other goodies. Jack was so excited about it! Each class came dressed up. The 2 year old class were turkeys.
Here are some other pictures from the day including 2 videos... one they were singing the blessing. Jack at least using his praying hands... but he was too busy chewing up the fruit he already ate to sing!

New Photos

I'm a slacker, i'll admit it. I have some new photos to post and Gabe had his 8 week check up so i have some stats for you!

First we had a visit from Auntie Muff (my dad's sister). She was visiting her daughter and family down in Georgia and passes right by on her way home. So we met her at chic fil a for lunch. Of course she came bearing gifts for the boys (which she totally didnt have to!) Jack LOVES his dinosaur and has even slept with it! Jack didnt stand still long enough at Chic-fil-a to get a picture with Muff. He was off to play in the jungle gym.

Jack still loves to hold his baby brother. He likes him to watch cartoons with him. I'm not sure Gabe is always so thrilled, but he does spend an awful lot of time looking at Jack trying to figure out what he's doing!

And Gabe had his 8 week check up a week ago (i know i should have posted this then!)
He was 14 lbs and 12 oz! Isnt that crazy! It's the 98% for weight but he's also 25 inches tall which is 97% for height so all around, he's just a big boy! My linebacker!

And in honor of my little linebacker... i took this photo of him this morning (at my mom's request, she said she needed a new photo) in his colts sleeper that my dad (of course) bought him! I love the picture because he's smiling! He's starting to babble quite a bit and will sometimes smile back at you if you smile at him. Other times he just looks at you like you're an idiot. :) like here....
haha.

And not to leave Jack out of the post! Yesterday at school they had their gingerbread man party. This month they have been studying the Gingerbread Man story (they do a different story each month). Jack likes to run around yelling "run run as fast as you can, you cant catch me i'm the gingerbread man!" Its very funny, until he runs into something.

Here's a picture of jack putting his part of the story on the board. The kids seemed pretty good at knowing their part of the story so this must have rehearsed for the mommies!

Tomorrow we have jack's little girlfriends birthday party. I'll be sure to take pictures and hopefully not take weeks to post them! :)
