Our little turkey just loved his first Thanksgiving! There were many firsts...first trip to Grandma's in Tryon NC, first turkey, first major road trip. Camden was an angel for both drives. The way up he slept most of the way and quietly nukked on his pacie the way back.

Grandma had a crib at the base of our bed all ready for her little man. (Incidentally this was Aunt Katie's crib and Mom's been itching to get a youngin' in it again!) Almost everyone was there: Aunt Katie, Uncle Brian, Uncle Bill and his new girlfriend Becca, Grandma, Grandpa and crazy Aunt Laura. We feasted on a fabulous dinner of turkey, dressing, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, mac & cheese, salad and wedding soup. And Cam ate sweet potatoes and turkey (catered by Beechnut). He liked it! He was a little fussy the first day--we think he was sick.

Things cleared up by Friday, though, and Camden joined a few of us shoppers as Grandpa treated us to lunch at Fuddruckers. By Saturday, Cam had lost his cold and passed it on to Mommy. So we stayed home with Daddy to watch the FSU/UF game. Our Noles didn't win but they played much better than we expected them too. It's nice to have a baby you can play with after the game to take your mind off it! That night Grandma babysat and we all went out to see a Christmas play. She gave him a bath and then was crazy enough to volunteer to keep him through the night while Daddy and Mommy caught up on our sleeping. She did great with him.

We left Sundy morning and pulled in around 6:30 pm. And we're still doing laundry! Mommy's feeling better, but Daddy is now sick--it's his turn. But we had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
We tried feeding our sweet pea just that tonight--sweet peas. It was rejected. We may have actually found something Camden doesn't like! We'll give it another shot again sometime.
