Gobble it Up!


We spent Thanksgiving at Mimi and Papa's house in Tewksbury this year.  Paige, Auntie Heather, Uncle Mark and Great-Grandma were there to celebrate with us.  The original plan was to have Mimi and Papa take Connor and Paige to the playground, but everything was still wet from the rain, so we went to plan B:  playing on a ladder!  Papa has one of those ladders that folds and can be put in many positions.  So it was used as a ladder and as monkey bars!  Connor did have fun climbing on it, and I think Papa had just as much fun.  Although watching him balance on top of the ladder was a littler nerve-racking!

Thanksgiving dinner was very nice, and it was even better when Connor decided he liked the squash and stuffing (see, he's been a bit of a picky eater lately, so this was good news for Mom!).  He just about ate his weight in squash, and even had a bit of pie for dessert (granted he smeared it all over his face and he looked like the Joker from Batman, but still...). 

We had a very nice time with everyone and pretty much had to roll ourselves home because we ate so much.  We hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!

Such cute pictures of him on that red couch! I am so jealous that your two year old actually sits still and LOOKS at you as you take a picture. Ben also discovered that he is a big fan of squash. Mairead, not so much. Hope you guys had a great turkey day- Happy Thanksgiving!
