Nana & Grampa Jim Visit Oct, 2011 Thanksgiving!!

October 8 - 10, 2011 - Nana and Grampa Jim return for another visit! Nana & Lily look at some of the many many fabulous birthday cards Lily received for her 2nd birthday. She likes to read them and name the pictures on the cards.


Nana & Lily review the most important sections of the newspaper - stocks, entertainment and fashion :)



Lily talks Uncle Matt into playing Play Doh with her. She even lets him sit on her little black chair. She can be very convincing sometimes.


"Here Uncle Matt, can you make something with the pink dough?" How can he say no? How can anybody?



Thanksgiving Monday - Family portrait!


While Thanksgiving dinner is cooking, Lily makes herself busy. She finds a creative way to get up and into Amelia's crib so that she can retrieve Amelia's butterfly baby doll for her.


She likes the fact that her bicycle has multiple functions. Here, as a stepping stool. The training wheels make it very stable.


...and she's up!! Way to think outside the box, little one! Also - love the sagging butt! Someone needs a diaper change, methinks.


Auntie Jill snuggles the bug. And Eeyore. We can't forget Eeyore!


Lily shows Amelia how she can drink her milk through a straw.


The family hangs out, waiting for the turkey to finish cooking. Clearly, everyone is more than a little pekish.

Amelia finds a really nice place to have a nap. She is very good at scoping out the prime real estate.


Sitting down to dinner...


...not wanting to be left out, Amelia *asks* for something to drink while everyone else is eating.


If she had had turkey, Amelia would be sleeping right now. But she didn't. She had milk. That probably contained at least some caffeine from all the Diet Pepsi Mommy was drinking in order to make it through the weekend. So she is awake. Very awake!



Mommy tries to feed her into a milk coma with an after dinner *snack*! Amelia has inherited her Mommy's and Daddy's good appetites, so were hoping she conks out after 6 full ounces!
