Gobble, gobble

We enjoyed a delicious Thanksgiving dinner at Mimi's tonight, although a certain jive-turkey refused to eat the previously anticipated t-day dinner once he saw the dessert buffet. He knows he must take four bites ove everything before getting dessert and boy did he take those four bites quickly! Emily, as usual, enjoyed the meal with gusto. She tried everything, exclaiming "MMM! I like this!" after each bite. Her favorite was the mashed potatoes, corn, turkey and dinner rolls. At one point during dessert, she switched back to her dinner plate and we laughed about how only Milly would have two kinds of pie AND ice-cream on her plate but choose the dinner roll and mashed potatoes instead:) Callie just enjoyed eating her hands and feet while sitting at the table with us. It was a pretty low-key evening(until the sugar-high kicked in for the Gruesome Twosome!) but very enjoyable!

The Mini Gourmand

The Grinch Who Stole Turkey-Day. Homeboy had to be excused from the table for bad behavior when he found out he couldn't have dessert until we ALL finished. His exact response? "WhatEVER. I'm leavin the table". Sigh...he's already 14 apparently!



Me, with my Mini-Me



Sisters, enjoying some conversation at the dinner table:)


The by-product of a meal consisting of four bites of marshmallow yams, three different kinds of pie, some ice-cream and a mini Sierra Mist: sugar-rush from hell!

Emmie much prefered to take care of her baby instead. She's burping her, here!

As you can see, Callie is not yet a fan of the Exersaucer:( I think it had more to do with the two very, VERY enthusiastic demonstrators she had showing her just how to play with it.


And who doesn't enjoy a nice pipe after a delicious holiday meal? Before you judge me, it came in a birthday gift(bubble set) and he loves it. He calls it a Mo(as in Mo Sizlack from the Simpsons. If you want to judge me for something, judge me for letting him watch that!) and doesn't realize it's a tobacco accessory. Meh...whatever. I played with far worse as a child...just ask my mom;)
