We celebrated Thanksgiving with a wonderful meal - my mom outdid herself with a fabulous turkey this year. Also on the menu - green beans, mushrooms, two types of potatoes, cranberry sauce and sprouts, for Stace. Pumpkin pie and apple crisp for dessert. Yum! Cora enjoyed a bit of turkey, some green beans and rice krispies. She likes picking them up.
While the women got the dinner finished up, Cora got up close and personal with Luke. Luke is aging and calm, and therefore is a perfect dog for Cora to get to know.
After dinner the adults played Cranium, and Cora played with some plastic cookie cutters,and Aunt Melly's phone.
Here, Cora is dropping her bowl of cookie cutters on her aunt's face.
We have so much to be thankful for this year. For Cora of course, and for Stacey's Nan
returning to her home after a few weeks of medical treatment.
Stace also was thankful he could eat the roast dinner. He was able to get his broken tooth filed down Wednesday morning as a temporary fix. He'll need surgery to implant a post, so that he can have a crown put in, as this was a tooth he previously had a root canal on.
Can everyone say, "cha-ching!"

On Friday, we had a nice lazy morning at home, allowing Cora to get a good nap in. We're concentrating on her getting decent naps in hopes of her sleeping better at night. Thursday night she slept all night, so that was good, but lately I'd say she's been waking up maybe 1/3 of the time. Later Friday we hit a few shops, including Home Depot for some babyproofing gear and a look at new toilets. We have a couple of rebate vouchers from the water district allowing us to get $75 for each new (low-flow) toilet we install. In the evening, we took a walk, and I wore Cora in her wrap. She was adorable, dressed in her fuzzy brown bear coat (complete with ears on the hood) that Andy and Jen bought her while they were here. She spent much of the walk chattering. "Memmm Memmm Memmm" was the main refrain (which sounds a bit like Mama!), with a few "ble ble ble"s for good measure.
