Thankful

Thanksgiving this year was a whirlwind! Unfortunately, Colin got sick on Wednesday, so Hank and I had to go to Rogers without him to see my mom's family. Uncle Mark hosted a great Thanksgiving dinner for a big bunch of us. Here he is with my mom.
Hank was such a trooper! He was passed from person to person, slept in his pack and play, and slept for both 3 hour drives. He was a big hit.
My great aunt Pauline and Grandma Betty were both especially excited to see Hank. They have each only met him one other time, and he has changed so much since March! He crawled, pulled up, grinned, and gave high fives all around. 
Colin was feeling better by Friday when we headed to his parents' house for Thanksgiving dinner with his family. Grandpa Stan has slot cars that were a lot of fun for boys and girls of all ages. Hank just watched and watched!
Colin's cousins know how crazy for baseball Colin is, so they made Hank a Build a Bear Pujols. Hank and Colin seemed to be equally excited. The two younger cousins were so sweet to think up so a great idea. Here they are posing with Hank and Grandma Nae Nae.
Hugs for Build-a-Pujols!

Couldn't help but notice Hank was eating in the garage - a perfect place for the kiddies to eat!
