November 2012

November was a more mellow month than October was, but we still had lots of fun!

My mom helped us take some family pictures in our backyard.

Ollie was incredibly cooperative.

Tay spent another day at Doba with Sean, and there he invented what is now known in our family as "Mr. TV Head."

The neighbors helped us rake leaves.

Sean hurt his head. Really bad.

Kitty slept a lot.

Sean spoiled me with an iPad Mini.

Then he made a nerdy dock for both of our Minis out of Lego.

Kitty slept with her tongue sticking out.

I made the boys some "bath paint" with shaving cream and food coloring.

We got our first big snow fall of the season.

Kitty helped me with laundry some more.

Ollie and Tay both had croup.

Cinnabon opened at University Mall, which pretty much made my entire year.

Taylor made a creepy bird creature out of Playdoh that reminds me of "The Dark Crystal."

We read books, snuggled, and ate lots of pizza.

Kitty slept in the sun.

 I did my yearly Black Friday shopping and got lots of great deals, including a new pre-lit Martha Stewart Christmas tree.

I also did lots of thrift shopping and got us all stocked up with winter gear.

Taylor had a cute Thanksgiving program at school.

Kitty was awake for a few minutes before going back to sleep.

The last of the leaves fell.

I crocheted this slouch beanie for myself, posted it on FB just to show everyone, and had four orders by the end of that week. I think I could make these in my sleep  now.

 We put up our Christmas decorations and put lights up for the first time outside.

We finished our Christmas shopping online.

The boys refused to wear clothes.

I scrambled to finish out the semester strong.

 And Sean started wearing a funny hat to bed.

Thanksgiving was great as well, but for some reason we didn't take any pictures at all that day. I guess we were just enjoying family time and didn't think about it. I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!
