1st Thanksgiving

Hello all! We hope you had a fantastic Thanksgiving, we certainly did! The three of us went up to Atlanta wednesday morning to spend the holiday with Paul's family. It was a very very busy household, but Adelyn LOVED spending time with Nana, PopPop, all of her aunts, uncles, and cousins, Clare and Alix. As everyone cooked their dishes, we put some aside for Adelyn so she could eat everything we did- her favorites were sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, corn casserole and cranberry sauce. I got talked into doing a 5K with Aunt Kati Thursday morning, it took me a total of 2 min into the race to realize I have run a total of about 1.5 miles in a year; I nearly died, but did not feel guilty with everything that I ate all weekend. Aunt Kati won her age group and got a trophy! We spent Friday watching football and enjoying each others company. Saturday Nana wanted to take Alix, Clare and Adelyn to ride the Macy's Pink Pig; we got to the mall and there was Santa. Adelyn was very interested in him, but as soon as we set her on his lap, she started screaming. We will try again down here when I have a camera.... Saturday afternoon we watched some big rivalry games; unfortunately none of our teams won but we still celebrated mine and Clare's birthdays that night. Sunday everyone got decked out in their black and red and watched the Falcons beat the Packers. Adelyn loved it! She thoroughly enjoyed all of the people and the noises and we cant wait to take her back to another game.
We made it back safely and are starting to get back into a normal routine. We are looking forward to getting our Christmas tree up because we brought home a lot of presents to go underneath it. We cant wait to celebrate Adelyn's first Christmas, I can already tell she is getting excited!

I cant believe I forgot to tell you! Adelyn has learned how to stand up in her crib AND she has a new tooth coming in. We peeked in on her when she was supposed to be taking a nap and she was just standing there looking at us; I wish I had my camera with me, but I know we will have many more opportunities to capture that shot now. The tooth hasnt quite broken through the gum yet, but it is right there. She will be a snaggle-toothed wonder very soon!
