Since we just got back from Alabama days before the Thanksgiving holiday we shopped for all the traditional meal necessities, tried to catch up on our sleep and throw a little relaxation all in our Thanksgiving week/weekend. I know Brooke was glad to be home, but she was mostly glad to see her Daddy. Anytime he is home she follows him and is pretty demanding of his attention, well this week.....it was so much more intense. She would throw FITS if her Daddy wasn't in the room with her. I know he is ready to get cotton stripping over with, but for Brooke's sake I am quite glad they had a few days with weather not allowing so she could get her fix in. ;o)
Daddy was dressed to go to the farm, but Miss Brooke did not want him to leave so he sat down and cuddled while watching the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving with her.
On Thanksgiving Day Steven's parents drove from Plainview to spend the day with us. It was just the five of us (not counting two dogs), so Brooke enjoyed getting to monopolize all of the adults attention. Nana will hate me for the picture, but hey....I already made my own Momma mad. ;o) The picture is of Nana with her neck brace sitting on Brooke's bed. Brooke managed to talk other adults into getting every single stuffed animal out of her wall net for her. The scene reminded me a lot of E.T. As a side note, Nana is doing really well after her surgery and even behaving!
After everyone left Brooke decided to find out what was at the bottom of her toy box, as you can tell by the stacks of thrown toys behind her on the floor.
Every morning since we got home Brooke has been wanting to wake her Daddy up. The morning after Thanksgiving she suckered him into going back to bed with her so she could wake him up over and over.....AND over.
The fact that this is December 1st has really made me realize the holidays are upon us! I have not done any Christmas shopping, and still have a scarecrow from Halloween in our front yard. I do believe I will attempt to use this week to catch up at least a little!
