Happy Thanksgiving!

Whew, what a Thanksgiving! To start the day Nana got the stomach flu so we were a little worried about Thanksgiving dinner. But Mommy and Papa came to the rescue and made a pretty decent meal (actually it was really good thanks to everyone helping). The kitchen was a little hectic but all in all they had fun!

I had a blast with my cousins Hailey and Sebastian. We played in the snow and pretty much went non-stop all day long. The Hale house was far from quiet and peaceful. We opened our Christmas presents since we won't get to see everybody at Christmas and I got a huge dump truck, a Home Depot tool set, and an ABC book with CD. Molly got a birthday outfit which will be seen at a later date and her very first purse!! Thanks guys for the great gifts!

On Friday we tried to get our pictures taken. I heard someone say it was like herding a bunch of cats. Whatever that's suppose to mean. Maybe in a few years we'll be able to get a good picture.

This was the best we could do

Fun of a Kind

To get us out of the house Mommy, Daddy and Aunt Mysti took us to Fun of a Kind. It was more for older kids but we had fun in the little kid section!

This train is hard! You have to use your hands.
See-Saw!!

TTU Basketball Game

Cousin Sebastian is a huge BBall fan so we all went to watch the Red Raiders beat Stephen F. Austin last weekend. I had fun but slept through the end of the game. I guess you could say I'm just not into sports yet.

Go Red Raiders!!!

Week Without Daddy

Daddy had to go to Midland for a whole week and left us all alone. Fortunately we all survived. Mommy just made sure that the week was cram packed full of stuff to do so we wouldn't even notice he was gone. One night we had girls night out with me being the exception of course. We enjoyed some yummy Mexican food at Lujans. I ate my grilled cheese sandwich and showed off my big muscles!

One Sick Child is Better than Two!

We had our first sick weekend this weekend. I got the crud in my nose and Gage got the stomach bug. Mommy and Daddy are very tired today. Even so, Mommy took me to get my 5 month pictures taken today since I wasn't too snotty. It's hard to believe I'm almost half a year old. My favorite things to do right now are blow raspberries and babble. I have even said Mama on several occasions. I am almost sitting up. I just get too darn distracted by my feet. They are so yummy to chew on!
