First Thanksgiving, the American version

For Thomas's first American Thanksgiving, we decided to take him on his first long car trip. He was a gem (well, mostly) sleeping much of the time while stopping in to see Grandma Leslie and Grandpa Yves in Kingston, then to see Curtis, Karen & Max in Toronto before making his way (asleep) to Buffalo.

Thanksgiving was lots of fun. Though Thomas won't remember it, André and I will know that Grandma Patti's traditional Thanksgiving question "what are you thankful for this year?" led to a very moving set of answers after a pretty tough year for lots of people.

Here's Thomas meeting some of his Harbison relatives...

"Hiya Grandma"

"Hey, Aunt Sara, can I interrupt?"

Nick knows what's what.

CJ prefers parallel play.

Aunt Kim & cousin Cassidy came for a surprise visit. Cassidy who is very nearly 4 years old, was a lot of fun to play with and she was very good with Thomas.

She even fed him a bottle...

and learned that feeding a baby is not always as easy as it looks!









And here are some very fun pictures of Thomas getting ready for the holidays.
