Thanksgiving a little early

Today Eli and I went to a Thanksgiving party.I made some 'Pilgrim hat' cookies for the event. (These are SUPER easy to make...just get Fudge Stripe cookies, vanilla icing, & Reese's mini peanut butter cups. Flip the cookies upside down, dip the pb cup in icing (or you can pipe it in like I did...) and then either add a drop of another color, or you can use mini chicklet gum. The hardest part about making these was finding a package of cookies that wasn't broken. I bought 2 pks (60 cookies) and only 20 of them were whole. Pretty frustrating. Okay...that was a very long parenthesis...)

We arrived at 10:30-what I thought was 30 min. late, and no one was there. I called a friend, and she informed me it didn't start until 11...Eli was sleeping in his stroller, so I had 1/2 hour to play tetris on my phone...

Eli had a good time. He enjoyed his turkey and mashed potatoes, but LOVED the cranberry sauce. I think he could have eaten a whole can!
After we finished eating we went over to the park area to play.

This little boy is about 5 months old, and he was SO cute on the swing! He was giggling so hard (not in this picture...) I think he could have hung out in that swing all day.

We got home and Eli took a nap. When he got up we played and read some books together. He loves looking at books. I can put a pile of books next to him and he will 'read' them for a good 30 minutes without complaint.

Below is a little video of where Eli is 'at' in the crawling game. He's workin' on it...

The house is quite, and I have a bunch 'o stuff to do on the computer tonight. I might give Edgar a hair cut too...who knows :)
