Thanksgiving

This one is late it coming, but better late than never.  We had Thanksgiving at out house with both our families and the Gorsts.  Unfortunately my dad had to work, so he couldn’t make it up.  We cooked a really yummy meal with only the minor of problems.  Somehow, everyone managed to fit around the table.  Nora of course, thouroghly enjoyed herself. She tried turkey and had some sweet potato.  She had lots of fun playing with the big kids.

The next day, we opted out of Black Friday shopping and decided to decorate for Christmas.  We got our tree and put up our decoration.  We also had a nice visit with Aunt Linda, Uncle Bill, Melissa, Eric, and Brian.

Kimberly is home at last from her time in Bolivia.  She is staying at my parents until she has reentry training in January.  Nora was excited to see her Aunt Kim again.  Here’s our pictures from the holiday.

Breakfast, Nora style..

Nora has definitely started to exert her independence these last few weeks. She likes to brush her hair and her “teeth.” I put teeth in quotations because she still doesn’t have any. She loves eating and like her parents, there’s not much she doesn’t like. She insists on feeding herself. Here was breakfast this morning. Needless to say, she needed a bath afterward. I’ve also included a bonus picture of Nora this morning in front of the tree.
