Holy Bananas! I can't believe we made it through the week unscathed! It was awesome, but busy. It started out with a reunion/playdate with some high school buds on Tuesday night. You know, the Florida 7 gals. This time it was just 4 of us (myself, Jenn, Elizabeth, and Philie) and our combined 5 offspring. Here we managed to get a group shot. From left, Cal (18 mos), Fred (3), Sam (15 mos), Noah (3), Morgan (3).
Then the three 3 year olds did a funny pose. I can't believe how big they are getting. They played so well together and sat together at dinner chatting about the foods they liked and disliked. Can't wait to see what next year brings!
Not to be outdone, here's Cal's silly face. How cute is he, even if he does outweigh Sam by 10 lbs (not exaggerating at all there).
Then on Wednesday, Auntie Kimmy came with Nick and Cesca. We had a blast pre-cooking for Thanksgiving and getting some cupcakes baked for the kids.
Seriously Noah, can you NOT look at the camera?!
There was some major cousins vs Uncle Mike wrestling time. This is the hair that resulted. So Rodriguez that coarse hair of his!
On Thursday we got ourselves all spiffed up and hosted about 20 people at our house. It was a lovely day, here are the cousins just before everyone arrived.
Sam got a seat of honor at the "big" table with his hook on chair while the other kids were relegated to the kids table. He thought he was pretty cool.
The inevitable post-Thanksgiving nap featuring Phil Hewes. This was part one, he moved to the couch for part two.
Noah's not a big pie man, unless it's french silk. And apparently Baker's Square doesn't allow you to pre-order french silk for Thanksgiving, a travesty Josh uncovered this year. So Uncle Josh came through with special cake for Noah. If you could hear the picture it would sound like the Thundercats battle cry, but with "CAAAAAKKKEEEEE!"
Don't worry, the little man got some too!
Life is good when you are surrounded by wonderful family and friends and chocolate!
Pants came off and relaxing time commenced with Auntie Faith. She rubbed his belly and he was a happy little buddha.
Now, on to my fav, CHRISTMAS! Do you think we'll have any spoiled boys in this house come December 25th? Methinks perhaps.....
