Thanksgiving

On the Wednesday before Thanksgiving we left for our second trip to "the Valley" when Jonathan got off work. Jon David did great. He slept the whole way and transitioned smoothly to the pack and play when we arrived.
On Thursday we woke up and had a great time with Jonathan's parents. They hadn't seen him since the first weekend in October so he got some much needed lovin!
I found this adorable shirt at Wal-mart for $3, and he had to have it!
Jonathan's momma loves him so much. It is always so great to have an extra set of hands. I was pretty spoiled over the weekend. If he made a peep someone was right there to get him. That's what grandparents are for.
Jonathan's nana and grandaddy and Adie Rose giving him smooches. She adores him.
Jonathan's Aunt Rita (above) and Aunt Jane (below) came in from Flordia and got to see our sweet boy. We loved that everyone was there this year. It was so special.
Jonathan's cousin Justin and his wife Kim with Jon David. Justin broke out old home videos of the family. It was so funny to see Jonathan. He reminded me so much of Lil' Art.
Jon David having a blast at his grandparents house.
He was the best boy. He napped great while we were gone and did pretty well through the night. On Friday Jonathan and his Dad watched Jon David while all the girls did a little shopping. We were home by 2 for the Auburn Alabama game, and thank goodness Auburn won! It didn't look to good the first half, but what a come back!
On Saturday we went shopping ALL DAY. It was Jon Davids first all day outing. We took his first nap on the way to Newnan (about 45 minutes away), his second nap in the Baby Bijorn, and his third nap on the way home. He was perfect! After we got home Jonathan's brother Brad, his wife Amy, and their son Brandon came over and grilled steaks. We love getting to spend time with them. We are hoping they can come visit us this summer!
On our way home we stopped to visit some of my favorite people, the Ohs. I used to babysit Harrison when I was in middle school and high school. I can't believe he will start High School next year. We took our time on the way home. We let the baby take his second nap, then stopped to shop in Atlanta, and then he took his third nap on our way to their house. He ate his dinner and had a bath there. He slept the whole way home. We were pretty exhausted from a long day of travel, but it was so worth not hearing him scream half way home like he did last time. He was a few months older this trip, and he did so much better! He has had the best week this week, it didn't even phase him!
He found his toes and his ears while we were gone! I could watch him grab his toes all day...so adorable!
