Thanksgiving









Thanksgiving was great. The fun started on Wednesday when Mom and Danny arrived. On Thursday, Eric and I ran in our first 5K race since the babies were born, and it was so fun. Thanks go my mom and Danny for watching the babies while we raced. It was so great to be out there again. After that, Eric's parents brought over all the Thanksgiving food (thanks so much for that!), and we had a delicious meal. Friday was spent trying out our new BOB stroller at Huntley Meadows park, and doing a little shopping. Over the weekend, Eric and I just caught up on everything.
This year, we have so much to be thankful for...friends, family, and most of all, two beautiful babies. A year ago, we couldn't have imagined being so blessed.
In baby development news, both Piper and Fletcher have discovered their hands, although they are very frustrated with their inability to fit their entire fist into their mouth. Hate to break it to them that no matter how hard they work on that, they may never acheive their goal of eating all their fingers at once.
That's the latest. This week is back to normal.

The Many Faces of Piper




As promised, here are a few more pictures of Piper. She was especially smiley in the crib this morning when she was supposed to be napping. Even as I type this, I can hear her giggling away in there. She's so funny!
We're so glad it's Thanksgiving here. Today, Mom and Danny come into town. Tomorrow, Eric and I are going to run in a turkey trot 5K and then enjoy turkey dinner with everyone. Then, tomorrow night, we'll watch the Pats game (which we'll record, so don't spoil it for us). Should be a good few days!

Fun Times





Sorry I haven't posted new photos in a while. We've been a bit busy. I'm happy to report that the babies are getting much more fun. We're even getting some smiles and giggles out of them. Here are some photos of them having a blast on their activity mat and Fletch sitting in his Bumbo seat. Unfortunately, Piper doesn't quite have the neck control to sit in the seat yet, but we're working on it. Other than having fun, not much new to report. Next week is Thanksgiving, so I'll be sure to post photos of the babies in their holiday attire. I'll also try to get more pictures of Piper, since it seems like many of these are of Fletch.
