It's Thanksgiving. We are stuffed. But I am thankful for so much AWESOME food. David said if we add presents to this holiday next year, it will definitely be his favorite day. Todd and Kristi are asleep on our couch. David is watching the Cowboys game. Harrison is napping. I am left to my own devices.
This is the third year we have fried a turkey. This year's came out THE best. A variety of things made it awesome: the pulley system David rigged up, perfect oil temperature this year, the right size bird, perfect blend of seasonings for the injection. It was moist and delish. Harrison liked it too. That's pretty good coming from a harsh baby critic.
I put up our Christmas decorations and tree already. David indulged me this year and let me put them up early. I am so excited. Probably because this is Harrison's first. We aren't going home this year which stinks. Last year was so hard! We flew home, rented a car, drove to Austin, drove to Waco, drove to Frisco, drove back to Houston, drove to Dallas and flew home. Never doing that again. Sometimes I wish David and I were from different states so we could see one family at a time. Because our families live relatively close, but not that close, we can't justify going to see one and not the other. Especially because we don't go to Texas very often anymore. Next year we will have to go home. Many of our family haven't met Harrison. He'll be so big by the time we get there!
He has one teeth poking through his gums. It's adorable.
He crawls all over the place.
He really likes playing with the football. David is very pleased about this.
He says "ba ba ba" all the time, spits with his tongue, and says "da" and "mommmm" sometimes.
Golden and beautiful
Todd and Kristi look comfy
