HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!! WHAT ARE EVERYONE'S PLANS??

So what are everyone's plans for Thanksgiving????

We are just doing it w/ just us.  And we are letting Luby's do all the work this year.  I decided I wasn't even going to attempt it w/ a new baby.  I can hardly find the time to make mac n cheese for the kids, much less make an entire Thanksgiving dinner by myself so nothing really big here.  But still looking forward to just relaxing, if that's what you want to call it.  LOL!

I hope everyone has a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving!!!

Wow thanksgiving wasn't too crazy this year, thank god!  On the 26 we celibrated with my grandparent at their house after I got off of work, which was nice, Owen was a very good baby, he slept almost the whole time we were there, excpet during his feedings.  OMG my cousin who is 5 and has down syndrom LOVE's Owen, he couldn't keep his hands off of him, which was a bit stressfull for myself, because he kept climbing on top of me when I was trying to feed him.  Oh and when he would cry he would get all serous and scared... it was cute, and it defintally makes me want to have more kids.  

Then Friday after DH got off from work we headed up north to have "family time" with my inlaws, that was a big mestake... sorry that was terrible to say but we had a good three hour car ride with my son and dog in the back seat.  Well we made it there fine, only stoping to feed him once.  Any who... we decied to take premade fromula with us and that seemed to irriate Owen's belly so he was super fussy in the evenings, but we made it through that, also because he's becoming more awear of his surroundings, I think he didn't understand where he was, even though we brough his pack n' play from home, but we made it and it truned out to be fun.  DH and his father spent most of the two days hunting, but didn't turn up anything, which sux.  But there's always next year.

Well I have been busy as a bee with Thanksgiving.  Since DH and I have been married we have hosted Thanksgiving at our home for both of our families.  I do all the cooking, but let anyone bring anything they want.  Amazingly it went very well.  I was more organized and neat than any year before.  I guess being a mom has gotten me in a better mode of organization.  DH was also around to entertain DS so that helped.  Everyone had a really good time! And of course Cash was the hit of the party!

My mother in law is staying with us for a week so she was on hand to hold the baby. IT was a big crazy event. She goes home tomorrow thank god.

Well this year thanksgiving is at my house.  We also do a pot luck to, i have to bring a green salad, sherbert and ginerale, and every family houshold contributes 7 dollars towards the meats. I expect to have35 family memebers over, and mayb 5 friends. My ex fiance mother and brother are also staying with me until the 30th, they wanted to come and see the baby, what an awkard situation being we are no longer 2gether.  I am ready to eat, thats all i can say.

Well, we are going to my inlaws for Thanksgiving dinner.  DH's grandmother is 88, and she still loves to cook, and MIL helps as well.  Then, we'll drive to NJ on Thanksgiving night for the long weekend.  It's the first time that we have been home since my baby shower in June! I have already been told that there will be many people stopping by to see the little one, who will be 3 months on Friday!  I can't wait, but trying to pack things for Matthew and plan ahead is a little harder than I thought.  Plus, it will be the first time that we have the baby and the dog in the car together!  Should be very interesting!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
