We just returned from a fun filled and family packed Thanksgiving in Illinois. This marked the second big airplane trip for Jack and he handled it very well. We were really blessed with such a well behaved child. Thanksgiving trip highlights:
1. I am thankful that we get to see so much of Lee’s family when we go home to Johnsonville.
2. Why do random people think it’s okay to touch my baby at the airport? NOT OKAY!
3. I love waking up at the Hargraves to the Today Show, a cup of coffee and looking at catalogs with Lee’s mom.
4. Breast feeding during the holidays is awesome. I get to eat a little extra and it’s acceptable.
5. Jack will have extreme diaper blowouts at the worst possible times. ie: on the plane ride home, Jack had an explosion that went all the way up his back and we had to do a complete wardrobe change.
6. I am extremely proud of Jack and so happy to be his mommy.
7. My sister-in-law, Jo Ann, makes the best cake balls in the world.
8. My other sister-in-law, Lindsay, had her house decorated for Christmas already and it was gorgeous.
9. Lee’s family is terrible about keeping Christmas gifts a secret and it’s actually quite funny.
10. Lee had his first Black Friday experience at Wal-mart whilst I stayed home with Jack and had a heart to heart with Lee’s dad <3.
Those are just a few of the many highlights from the trip. To see pictures from the trip, click here.
Also, because rarely am I right and Lee is wrong, I have to share this story. We were singing Frosty the Snowman to Jack on the flight home. Lee sang, “There must have been some magic in that old TOP hat they found.” I laughed a little and told him that it was a SILK hat that they found. He didn’t believe me, so we made a bet. Sure enough, I was right and he has to change all of Jack’s diapers tomorrow while we are home at the same time. Winning is fun.
About 3 weeks until Christmas! Our first tree is ordered and on it’s way!
