Giving Thanks

As usual, we do more relaxing than taking pictures at the cabin.  Therefore the following is everything we captured during Thanksgiving break!  I'll have to check to see if Kalin took any others...

Bapa and Claire perfected their stare downs.

Da da, da da da da - GO PACK GO!  (When I read that aloud to make sure I had the right number of "dah"s, Claire started clapping her hands.  Needless to say we then did the Packer cheer.)

 Claire was oddly obsessed with her magna doodle that weekend.  Minutes of fun!  It was wonderful.

She has also recently really gotten into drawing - or "dwah".

We actually did a lot of other fun activities...like eating...playing connect 4, taking naps.  Oh, and the most exciting was that we got to see a movie (The Muppets).  I thought we could try to take Claire along but Ryan and Kalin thought wisely and decided she should stay home.  Thanks Kalin for letting mom and dad have a date out (with the fam)!

During Thanksgiving Claire also learned to say Kalin (or Taylin).  Here is a video Kalin captured.  I laugh every time I watch it, for several reasons:
1) she says "you hoo...monny, daddy..." 
2) how quickly she can be distracted (from being sad)
3) How excited she is to have learned to say TAYLIN!
