Thanksgiving and Other pictures

I'm having some issues with blogger and how they place pictures now - they changed the order that the pictures appear so I am a little confused and you will be too - either way - cute pictures - bad order!

Beautiful piggy toes!

Our litle lady with her gown up around her waist - so cute!


Thanksgiving day - Uncle Bob and his beautiful goddaughter.



Bob, Patrick and the babies!

Daddy and Lizzie hanging out.
Lizzie is sleeping less rather than more and Bob and I are serioiusly dragging. Annie is ear infection free and sleeps through Lizzie's crying with no problem but woke up twice this week with teething issues - of course, when she wakes up it is usually the only time of night that Lizzie is sound asleep so it feels like we never sleep. Luckily Bob took pity on me this morning and sent me off to bed for an hour or so while he finished putting the food back in our new cabinets. Molly proceeded to ask why I always sleep so much - if only she knew! Tomorrow we have a lazy Sunday planned - grocery shopping, pedicures for Molly and I (we have a gift card from a friend) and than snacks and a Patriots game by the fire in the late afternoon - what a life huh? I'll post pictures of craft night with Auntie Ann tomorrow.
GNM - ILY!

A few pictures!

Molly holding Lizzie - AGAIN!


Papa and Annie bonding.






The big kids went out with KK for a while this afternoon - gotta love the auntie who realizes how important TLC is for the big kids now that the baby is here. They went on a mystery ride and were very excited to get out of the house - they saw Madagascar II in 3-D and according to Peter it was "awesome". We made it to church yesterday - score one for us! Other than that one of the best weekends ever - I got out of my pajamas at 3 p.m. yesterday and never got out of them today. We just hung out at the house getting the kitchen ready for the new cabinets and hanging with the kids in front of the fire. We had lots of visitors today - Meg and Tim, Grammy and Papa, Auntie Eileen and Jeff are on their way, KK, Auntie Karla and Abby - everyone coming to hang out with us in our pajamas and me feeling better than I have in 3 months but not embarrassed at all to be so lazy and happy - how long do I get to do this because it could be habit forming?
The kids had a concert at school for Puerto Rico Discovery Day - sang songs in Spanish and recited poems - I got a cute video of Molly singing the Buenas Dias song but can't get it to upload to blogger - bummer. It was Lizzie's debut at Noah Webster and the kids loved showing her off. The teachers were wonderful about letting us interupt their afternoon to bring the babies in to see the kids. They both held the baby and introduced her to their class. It was l9ts of fun.



Lizzie in her new baby hat - how cute are those cheeks? Ready to go see the big kids at school.

Annie Bananie regressing and sitting in Lizzie's bouncy seat.



Molly - girl was so excited to see us at school for her concert - okay - she was really excited to see Annie and Lizzie!



Pete was hamming it up with his class as usual.

Julia was not cooperating with the camera but did a great job with her lines at the beginning of the program - Auntie Jane and I were worried that once she got the microphone she would start singing a Hannah song but she did great and was very proud of herself - she gets her reading skills from her godmother!





Molly with her class singing.


My girl loves putting on a show - Mrs. Sutcliff - the music teacher is one of her favorite teachers!

Pete with his friend Nathan - he was avoiding contact with his annoying mother.


Lizzie was laying on the counter getting ready for her tubby and we saw little pieces of personality coming out as she smiled and cooed for us.

Lizzie in a state of half undress but being so cute I couldn't resist - she started shivering shortly after this picture and did not enjoy her bath as much as we had hoped she would but boy does she smell good.

Daddy and Lizzie

Auntie Meg and Tim hanging with Elizabeth!


Auntie Meg bonding with her goddaughter - I love the tiny little smile on her face - so happy to be with her godmother!
So that's it for tonight - sorry for the boring narrative - feel free to skip it!

GNM - ILY!
