Lydia's 1st Thanksgiving

I remember last year on Thanksgiving being so thankful for the healthy little baby growing inside of me and I couldn't wait until that first Holiday season with him or her (we didn't know yet what the baby was) and holy crap where did that year go?!?! We now have that healthy little baby here in our arms and she has brought us so much joy!

Our first Thanksgiving was our year to stay home so we had 2 Thanksgiving dinners to go to. We go to Matt's family at noon and eat meal #1 then we head over to my Grandma's for meal #2 around 4 or so. (yes i ate like a pig and the scale showed it this morning, yikes)

Although I was thankful for no long car rides and a new place for Lydia to get used to I did not take into consideration that she might not fall asleep and go down for a nap. Well she did go down for about 20 min and was up the rest of the time, she was a trooper. She sat at the table with us at my Grandma's and ate her babyfood and whatever else my dad happened to sneak to her to try.

It was so fun to watch our families love on her, not all of them to get to see her on a regular basis so for them to see her turning into the little girl with such a personality is really fun. They better watch out I have a feeling she will be crawling by Christmas and she will be coming after their presents!!

Here are some fun pictures from the day (please don't pay attention to my hair, it was pouring ALL DAY long)
