Thanksgiving

We had a great time in The Homeland for Thanksgiving!  

Here is a recap in pictures:

We ate pie.

We opened Thanksmas presents at Great Grandma's house.

Isaac was a big fan of presents.  

He helped Great Grandma open hers too.

We bothered Scout the Hamster.

We read books.

 We thought about stuff.

We Skyped with the Jersey Collective.

(Tho you can't really see them in this picture.)

We helped Grandma open her presents too.

A box!  

(And then moved on.  

Isaac was unencumbered with wonderings of what may be in the box.)

We surprised Grandpa with a new tv!

We all got new pretty quilts from Grandma.

We played Marble Works.  Lots of fun!

We blew bubbles.

We watched the new tv under our snuggly new quilts.

A great time was had by all.  

We should really go to the Homeland more often.

Happy Thanksgiving!

How great is your goodness, which you have stored up for those who fear you, which you bestow in the sight of men on those who take refuge in you.  Psalm 31:19

I wish you much thankfulness this day and every day.

2 Minute Time

Isaac Reads his Favorite Book

Buzz-Year!

My Little Buddy is too cute!

(No bias here.)

And he got some awesome new "Buzz-Year" jammies!

They are so cool.  :)

Too Hot To Handle

Last week at this time, Isaac had a temp just a bit shy of 103.

He was very snuggly that way.  And very hot.

He is much better by now.  

(I am just slow about posting pictures.)

Mewzit

The Boy has this thing about smell lately.

"Mewzit, Mommy," he says.  

He smells everything.  

Food, clothes (both dirty and clean), diapers (both used and unused), shoes, toys, books, you name it.  

One day he even laid face-down in a store and started sniffing the floor.  

The first few weeks I had my new car, when he first got in, he would say 

"Mewzit, Mommy.  Nose owie."  

I guess "New Car Smell" is not his favorite scent.  

Maybe I should try "Wet diaper" or "Store Floor" next time.
