...when Marie & Alice's nap schedules occur at the same time. This way I can have a few hours to myself to
get organized and relax and blog so my millions of fans can finally see Thanksgiving Day pictures four days after the actual holiday.
....that my millions of fans realize I have a 3 week old and a chatty toddler to tend to throughout the day and cannot blog daily.
...that Marie is feeling better so these sweet sisters can snuggle up close and not get each other sick. On this same note, I am thankful for antibiotics that are bubble gum flavored :)
...that Alice can sleep through anything, including when Marie yells "There's Drew Carey!!" every time she watches The Price Is Right...see video below:
...for Thanksgiving Dinner at Meemaw's house, leftovers from the O'Toole Thanksgiving, dinner brought to us by Paw Paw, Grammy & GG and the Kiser Crew stopping by for a visit. We are so fortunate to have both families in St. Louis!

finally being Christmas-time, my favorite time of year! Bring on the 24/7 Christmas music and decorating! Now to figure out how to get a toddler not to take ornaments off the tree...
