Packing

Just because it is cute.... Here's our girl helping mommy pack.

Chanukkah

Last week was Emma's first festival of lights. Grandma was here celebrating with us for the first few nights. Emma kept trying to grab candles and she was not feeling the latkes. She liked playing with the wrapping paper and she is learning to get on the move with her new walker.

Mommy's Helper

When I am cooking in the kitchen, Emma often crawls in and gets into the cupboards. She thinks that she is helping, but she is usually just making a mess (a really cute mess)! Here she is caught in action.

1st Thanksgiving

Patrick's mother came to visit for Thanksgiving and we had a blast. She and Patrick attending a Pickling Class and they loved it! (I know its weird, but it was the only class being given this week and I decided they would have fun AND I was right.)

We went to my parents' for dinner and I milled up the turkey so Emma could eat some too. She loved smearing the feast around he tray and dropping it on the floor.


We saw three movies and played Yuker. Emma went to a Gymboree class and enjoyed her first, early morning, Black Friday shopping trip.
