Happy Thanksgiving!

These are all in the wrong order.. but oh well. Today I cooked a turkey for my parents, derek and joey. After dinner we went outside in the snow!

Joey only ate the cranberries and jello. For some reason he's just not into turkey, stuffing or mashed potatoes. the kid doesn't know what he's missing.

This is only the 2nd time i've made a turkey. the first time was in AZ with our Canadian friends the Doberstein's. So actually this is the first turkey i've made in MN.

Joey was very patient while mommy tried to cook. he even checked it out while it was cooking. it was definately a quieter thanksgiving than most, but nice to just be at home. we are looking forward to seeing auntie binzer and uncle brian in a few weeks, and going to the skubics for our holiday weekend. hope everyone had a great day!

"Treadmill"

I was in the bathroom with JOey, he grabbed his monster jammy bottoms and his swimtrunks, sat down and was trying to put them on. He kept saying "mill." He asked for help, so i put the pants on, then the shorts too, and he headed downstairs! The treadmill is in the basement with some of his toys, and i suppose he has seen me change into shorts to go on it... I am thankful for toddlers... he sure makes us laugh.

wearing daddy's hat...
It's been a crazy week. We had the funeral for my Grandma yesterday, and everything went fine with little family drama. On Thursday I took JOey to the doctor, and found out we both had strep. Then friday morning, before the funeral, Joey woke up with a swollen, gunky right eye. So we brought him back in to the MD for eye drops. We are all a little sleep deprived... I'm craving my boring routine.....

Some sad news

My dad just called and said Grandma Aysta passed away this morning. I think the funeral may be on Friday.

I want blue

Jo-jo and C.C.

We went to Thompson's last night for delicious spaghetti. We got to see E.T., Jeff and Celia too.

Trying to "share" the trains with two toddlers....these two are so entertaining. See you in a month Skubics!

"Talking" on the phone to Grandma

Joey decided he wanted to talk on the phone tonight. Although he didn't talk much, just pushed a lot of buttons.. ask Grandma B!

My baby boy is growing up so fast.

Lining up my tractors...

Should I be worried???
It has gotten a little bit easier getting ready for work in the mornings, Joey is pretty good about entertaining himself. This is what he was doing when I was trying to fix my hair.
