Our Thanksgiving started off quite busy. Jim and I got up before the kids and started working on the appetizer for our dinner and getting a french toast breakfast together. I didn't feel like I even slowed down enough to eat - we had a lot to do by 10am.
Once we were all up and fed, we packed the car headed for the Grandma's house in Indiana. We got there about 11:30am and hung out all day. Reagan did really well. She played and played and played. She spent tons of time with Grandma's dogs. Jordan played games on my phone most of the time and Jim chatted with everyone (and played with the dogs too).
Reagan actually ate a full bowl of mac and cheese for the first time and even had a bite of clam dip. Yep - clam dip. I freaked out. Papa Thomas had Reagan on his lap and was feeding her mac and cheese when he just, out of the blue, took a spoonful of dip and popped it in her mouth. I put my hands over my face and said "that has clams in it!" Ohhhh. I had to breathe. She was fine. Of course. Papa didn't know not to do that... oh well. I've given her strawberries, so I guess I can't say anything :).
Anyway, she read books and played a lot with Papa. He even taught her how to do the wheelbarrow game - he picked up her feet and taught her how to walk with her hands. So darn cute.
Aunt Wanda gave her a music book that played some cool classical music. Every time Reagan would hit a button, she'd dance where she was the whole time that it played.
We left about 5pm and Reagan promptly fell asleep in the car. She was zonked! The thing that cracks me up now - she in bed and talking up a storm. No nap - extremely tired but talking. Hmmm.
