Thanksgiving fun

The boys thought they were so funny wearing Chris and Stephanie's shoes.
We were so lucky to have Chris and Stephanie come visit us for Thanksgiving.
Stephanie's boots went up to Austins thigh. He was so funny walking around in them.
Papa meets baby Jason for the first time. We were so glad Papa was able to come out with Mama for the holiday.
Mama and Jace taking a nap during Thanksgiving dinner.
Happy little Ella! The Davis family also came down from Michigan and we were so glad to see them.
Swimming in the pool at the Davis' hotel.
The kids had a blast.
Jeff loved swimming with all the kids and Mommy got to relax in the hot tub.
Ethan is becoming quite the little swimmer.

Getting ready to venture out into the 20 degree weather to see the zoo lights.
Mama and Ethan bundling up. Thanks Mama for bringing out Ethan's new Batman boots.
I love that Ethan's spiderman's eye was glowing in this picture.
Here we all are freezing but having a blast. Papa got us some hot chocolate and we even stopped at Jeni's ice cream after. Austin loved the dancing lights.
Ethan just loves Papa and was excited to show him our zoo.

Preschool thanksgiving play

Such a cute song that Ethan is always singing for us. They sing it as a prayer for snack time.

I loved that it took twice through the song for the kids to figure out what they were supposed to be singing.

Ethan's preschool thanksgiving program

Ethan's preschool had a evening program and a thanksgiving feast. There was tons of food from many cultures it was wonderful.
Lining up for their program.
So excited.
He made us a placemat so we could find our seat.
Cutie Austin waiting for the show to start.
So proud of his lightyear belt.
Doing the actions for one of the songs.
The class dressed up like pilgrims.
The turkey class.
Ethan's class were Indians.

Trying to help Austin see the show over all the moms and dads who couldn't understand the many pleas for "down in front".
So proud of his first play.
Excited to eat all the good thanksgiving food.

Go Buckeyes!

Jeff won free tickets to a Buckeye basketball game. He took the boys and they had a blast.
I love Austin in this picture his little belt is so stinking cute. I am glad they had the opportunity to go.
Drooling sprite out of his mouth. Jeff said the "can we go home now?" started about 2 minutes into the game for Ethan. Austin loved the whole game and wasn't ready to leave when it was over.
Super cute!
This is how close their seats are. You can tell they were given to him by an attending.
The boys each got to pick one treat while they were there. Of course they picked sprite and cotton candy.
Such a funny little guy.
Jace and his girlfriend Maci holding hands.
She is a couple months older, but Jace is a tank!

Thanksgiving at the Stansbery's

Ethan loves his brother so much and he helps me all the time.
So asleep he doesn't care if we go or not.
Peter and Megan decorated the tables so stinking cute.
Name cards and everything. Way to go Peter and Megan!
Lots of friends and amazing food! Thanks Stansbery's for hosting Thanksgiving with friends!

Potty training and Cutie Jace!

Jace has decided that his Daddy is really funny and laughs at him all the time.
In fact Jace laughs at everyone. If he hears me laughing from across the room, he just giggles too. He is really a very happy baby. (Except at night!)
Ethan didn't like being left out of the pictures so he put on a goofy hat and got his favorite pup for a picture.
"What?"
He will be just fine then see me and pull this face. It must be time to eat. No wonder my 3 month old weighs 15 pounds 14 1/2 ounces.
He has discovered the birds above him in the swing and will watch them for hours.
He just loves his brothers and thinks they are hilarious.
Austin wanted to show Jace his acorn. Austin has a weird fascination with acorns and has been carrying them around all fall long.
Look at the man boobs on this kid. Not to mention the belly.
Happy to be naked and held by dad.
