Kids, kids and more kids!

BOOM, BOOM AIN'T IT GREAT TO BE CRAZY?

T-Day

Happy Thanksgiving! The boys came down with strep throat earlier this week so we weren't able to go to Abby's Aunt Pam's house as planned. Since we enjoy atypical holiday meals (last year it was Turkey Enchiladas) we decided to go with Cornish Game Hen with Cornbread Stuffing. They were dee-lish! The boys had a few rounds of antibiotics in them already so they were feeling well enough to eat plenty of "hen". In the pictures of them above they are enjoying a little dessert as well. Alita had a lovely meal of homeade applesauce =}. It was a bit tart as you can see in the picture.

Sacramento Car Show

Now that we have unpacked the essentials in our house we actually got OUT OF THE HOUSE and had a little family outing last Saturday. We went to the Sacramento Auto Expo. The boys LOVED seeing their "pocket cars" life size! Jesse said his favorite was the puple one with flames (see 3rd photo from the bottom). Josh's favorite was "every car" he said. Abby enjoyed the "Art Cars", one was shaped like a shoe! John enjoyed the classic muscle cars that give him ideas of what to do with his 72 Olds. Alita seemed to have a good time viewing everything from the baby backpack on Daddy's back.

Alita is 6 Months Old!

Here she is! Alita is 6 months old now and doing well. On her last doc appointment she was 17 lbs and 27 inches long. She has her bottom two teeth already (see middle photo) and her top two have broken through also! Alita LOVES to eat solid food, she especially loves sweet potatoes and bananas. She babbles quite a bit, especially in the car. The boys have been making her laugh which is loads of fun for them. I keep thinking they will get tired of her but they still love to spend lots of time with her each day. Jesse and Joshua are great big brothers!
