Happy Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving this year was at our house and was WONDERFUL! We had a house filled with people ready to spoil Maddie once someone else had finished spoiling her. It was a line of people ready to do anything and everything Miss Maddie wanted. She LOVED it! :)

Everyone arrived on Wednesday night. We ate pizza and went to bed. The next morning, Maddie woke up and hung out watching Sesame Street with her Teddy and Uncle Manish. Maddie stayed in her Panda PJs for most of the morning.


(what a face!)

Nanny made Maddie her own turkey (out of pie crust) ...

... Daddy helped her eat it all up!Uncle Manish ran out of energy and found someone to snuggle.
Amy, Maddie, Little Man and Manish hung out on the sofa and were super silly.

... then she moved on to Teddy. She just moved from one person to another all weekend!She gave Teddy a big kiss ... he just melted.
Amy took a little nap with the Dih Duh Mon ...
The next morning, Maddie woke up and found her Uncle Manish to read to again.
Little Man wanted to read as well. He is very smart!
Maddie and Teddy watched some more Sesame Street.
Then we got all bundled up and had some fun drawing on the front porch.




(beautiful baby!)

The next day we went to the butterfly house. Maddie had a great time looking at all the beautiful butterflies.
Maddie's favorite part of the trip, though, was feeding the geese. Grandparents be warned: in the video, Maddie walks over to the geese but was never in danger ... I was right behind her - you just can't see me on the video.






The next morning, Maddie followed her regular routine ... reading books in bed with Manish.

Then ... again ... chalk art with Teddy on the front porch.
After we took Amy and Manish to the airport, Nanny, Teddy and I took Maddie to Forest Park to play in the leaves and on the playground. She had a great time!











I taught Maddie how to roll down the hill. We had lots of fun doing this!
