...with a few pictures from Thanksgiving. For some reason, we didn't have our camera with us when we went to Thanksgiving at Grandma and Grandpa Clopton's house. So I ended up using my phone for these pictures. Not the best quality and when the girls start to run and play, they can get pretty fuzzy............ So anyway, we celebrated Turkey Day at the Clopton's house and while the adults enjoyed a big meal, Amelia and Penelope dined on the rolls. :) I'm pretty sure they like turkey and green beans and will often eat mashed potatoes from our plates at home, but when we get in a big family setting like that, I think they are way too distracted to eat. I feel a little bit bad for them, but figure if they are hungry enough, they will eat! Here are a few of my favorite shots...
Penelope modeling one of the adorable jumpers that Grandma Reinke made
And Amelia modeling hers (sorry for the blurriness)
Coloring Time (look at that nice mark on her cheek...glad the crayons wash off so easily!)
Play Time with Aunt Sarah
Taking a rest
Amelia ready for Black Friday!
Somebody (not real sure who) found a better use for the shopping bag
Crashed!
Because we spent the afternoon eating and playing, the girls didn't have their normal nap. It was dark by the time we headed home and I think both of them were asleep within a minute or two of leaving. When we got home, I carried Penelope in and set her in her chair and went back out to the car to get Amelia. Penelope was awake by the time I got back in the house, so I put Amelia in the chair. And she didn't wake up, even with Penelope talking and playing nearby, which is so not Amelia! At least 5 - 10 minutes passed and she was still sleeping, so Paul snapped this picture. Shortly after, Penelope started placing toys on and around her, which I guess was Penelope's way of trying to wake her sister up to play!
Looking forward to my next post - a picture with Santa (so-so) and a couple pictures in front of our tree (really cute)!
