Thanksgiving Part I

We started out with Jake's school's Fall Program. What does a class of 11-18 month-olds do for a school program you ask? Parade around in their stroller of course! (No, he is not in a class of all boys! There are 2 girls in his class that are in a different stroller.) It was very "edge of your seat" exciting.

Making their grand entrance

On Saturday, our friends Trip & Amanda hosted everyone over at their house for a Thanksgiving of friends. So much fun & so many babies! It seemed crazy that last year when we were there for the Thanksgiving get-together, so many of us were pregnant. It was weird to be there this year with all of our kids. It was a wonderful time though and we are so thankful to have such wonderful friends here.

Jake & me

How cute is Connor?!?!

Amanda L. & David

Jake & Breiten holding hands

Jake being a gentleman & pushing his lady friend around. (Funny story: Jake LOVES to push kids on riding toys. In his classroom at school, they have one of these riding toys. Jake pushes all of the kids around. The funny thing is, Jake is the youngest kid in the class! But he is one of the biggest & strongest (& aggressive!) so he likes to push the other kids. His teachers tell us that it is so funny to watch the kids take turns while Jake pushes them around the room!)
Jake not being a gentleman. He is trying to block Breiten from playing with her own toy. (Evidently he only likes pushing kids on toys, but not sharing them!)
Back to playing again nicely. Breiten was very sweet to share her toy with Jake.
Connor getting into the action as well
The kids racing up the stairs. I didn't get a picture of Jake, but he was climbing them as well. I guess their stairs are easier to climb then ours!
Amber & Breiten
Sweet Addie!
Us trying to get a good picture of all of the kids
As close as good was going to get!
Breiten (1 year), Dru (5 months), Addie (3 months), Jake (11 months) & Connor (almost 1 year!). Missing from photo: David (5 months)
