Leavin' On a Jet Plane

We are getting ready to head to Florida to meet my family for Thanksgiving. So, we had a few things to prepare for: Now that it is winter, Clayton has fallen in love with his sunglasses (guess its good that we're going to FL). And, in leur of Thanksgiving, Clayton has become impatient in waiting for a meal, and has decided to be self sufficient in feeding himself.

We walked in one morning to our little 'toddler' sitting at the table-my how time flies. "When you're hungry, your hungry". I guess I need to be quicker to feed Clayton or watch what I leave on the table. What a resourceful little guy!

Happy Veterans Day!

Happy Veterans Day to all of the faithful service men.

Clayton and I got to spend the day in Dallas enjoying the festivities. Chris's cousin is part of the Liberty Spirit (Natalie is the one in the middle) that tour the country from NYC. Their show was 60 minutes of love, laughter and tears. It was awesome and the patriotic songs didn't leave a dry eye in the audience.

Clayton LOVED the singing and dancing. Infact, he trying to become an honorary Liberty Spirit by showing off his moves and costume charm.

He finally got his wish to get on stage, and on his way down.... well, lets just say we spent the rest of the afternoon in the Children's ER (PS: if there has to be an accident, I highly suggest it happen in Texas-their hospitals are awesome)!

This time we just got glued. But, he now has matching scars. I told lolli that he is going to look like Frankenstein before he is 2 years old. There is never a dull moment with Clayton. He was even climbing on the tables at the ER. The Doc walked in and said, "I can see why you're here". I have a feeling we're not done yet.

Rock

I can't remember the root of "The Rock" but one day, a couple weeks ago, Clayton started doing the rock...and hasn't stopped since. If you get him started, he's liable never to stop until everyone in a mile radius has experienced the rock.

Yabba-Dabba-Doo!

Happy Halloween!

Bam Bam seemed to fit Clayton perfectly. So, we all dressed accordingly and had a blaste at the ward's Trunk or Treat.Clayton loved following all the kids around to all the trunks, and the rest of us loved the candy he got.

PS. Someone gave him a sucker (that he wouldn't let go of and ate most of the paper to get inside) and the other sucker...well I'm not sure where that came from. I think it was somewhere on the ground. He was diggin' this sucker festival!

Chris is going to miss Thanksgiving this year due to his dental boards, so his whole family came to Oklahoma, this weekend, to surprise him with a big holiday shebang!!

We spent Friday at the Science Museum (always a crowd pleaser) and cooked Saturday morning while Chris studied. He walked in, after studying, and said "looks like a fancy lunch". He didn't really get it until his mom had him get the dressing out of the oven. It was so good! I could have Thanksgiving once a month! Thanks everyone. It was one great weekend!
