Thanksgiving and more...

I know it was over a week ago, but I just got around to downloading our pictures from our time spent back at home. So be patient...there's a lot of them.

Acadia took her first plane ride and all things considered did amazingly well. The trip to Chicago she barely made a peep. The way home was another story. We had a ton of turbulence and I think I learned that flying in the morning is better than the afternoon when a baby is involved. Luckily we had a bunch of nice companions that didn't mind her crying.



The first couple of days were crazy with traveling and catching up and Acadia missed her usual bath time. So we freshened her up on Thanksgiving morning. She's a little too big for the sink now but obviously too small for the regular tub. But we found this bucket at grandma's house that was too fun not too use.


Unfortunately Acadia kept sliding down in it so even though she looked really cute, her next bath we had to try another method. We ended up laying a few towels down in the tub and that seemed to work just fine.


And her she is snug as a bug after it...


Starting with Thanksgiving, Acadia met so many new people. Here she is with Aunt Pat.



She also met a few of mommy's friends...

Aunt Lacey

Auntie Brynna

A trip home isn't complete without a visit to Cooper's Hawk. We had a family lunch with Scott's friends, John, Paula, Gianna and Kylar. Kye's been teething so she wasn't the happiest of campers, but she pulled through.

After lunch it was off to visit Great Gramma McEnery. Notice Acadia's in a new outfit. She started off in a dress that Gramma gave her, but after eating it didn't seem to last. Good thing we had a change of clothes!



We also spent a few days with Tim and Dana. Here's all the girls...


And the kids all getting to know each other...


My friend Becky also stopped by with her daughter, Lia. Lia and Acadia are 10 days apart. From the looks of it they're going to be good friends.




And I couldn't blog without a picture of Scott. He's always taking the pictures but I was able to get him hanging out with his little lady.


We had a great time seeing everyone and can't wait to come back in a couple of weeks!!
