Elf Yourselves
It is that time of year and you again can make yourselves into elves. The kids especially might think this is funny. I can think of little else that could make me laugh harder than Brett as a Disco elf. Hope this helps to get everyone into the spirit of the season.
Here is our dance:

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!
Just wanted to take a second and wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving. Our dinner reservations are at 5:00 this evening at Lawry's, and you can all imagine how excited we are. It's the meal Joe and I look forward to all year. Andy and Sarah and my brother are joining us, and then we're headed to Jeremy's apartment after dinner for dessert.
The rest of our weekend is pretty packed. We have Nadia's last gymnastics class tomorrow morning. I say last because it's the last one that I will get to join her in. She's a big girl now, and will go to class without me. It's sort of bittersweet because I'm excited for her to be able to be independent, but a little sad that she's really no longer my baby. Tomorrow night we will hit the zoo for the opening of Zoo Lights. Luckily it won't be nearly as cold this year as it was last. On Saturday, the kids have pictures at the mall, and then on Sunday, Isaac gets to go to his first class! We signed him up for Gymboree, and now that he's so mobile, I think he's going to have a lot of fun. He's really into other kids, much more than Nadia ever was, so the social aspect of the class is going to be even more important for him. Finally, on Sunday afternoon, Nadia is going to her first "tea" party. She gets to bring a "friend." She chose T-Rex. I can't wait to see pics of the two of them dressed up and enjoying their tea together!
Oh, and because I can't resist the chance to share a few pics, here's what else we've been up to recently.
This is Nadia teaching Joe how to hop like a frog. She loves the game. Joe, not so much, but he's a good sport anyway.
This was taken this morning at the park. It's an absolutely beautiful day today, and we tried to take advantage of it by going on a walk and playing a little at the park. Joe would have preferred hanging out in the house, but I drug him out anyway.
Last weekend we went downtown to see the the windows at Macy's and to check out the toy store. It was really cold and surprisingly crowded, but Nadia enjoyed herself. We didn't dine in the Walnut Room because the wait was nearly an hour and a half, but maybe someday we'll get to experience lunch under the big tree. I did have the most delicious sandwich and ice cream pie in the Frango mint cafe, though.
Here are Joe and Nadia on the brown line to downtown last weekend. It's always such a treat for Nadia to get to ride the train. She loves it!
Just a random picture of Nadia playing dress up at playgroup a couple of weeks ago. She thought she looked like a "movie star!"

Ugly Holiday Sweaters
So, I was wondering...
Does anyone have an ugly Christmas sweater that Callie and I can borrow? because we were going to make cheesy picture for Christmas. If anyone has a sweater that we can borrow that would be great! just let me know!!!!

Twilight- Literary Crack
So we are within 48 hours of being able to see the film version of the extremely popular book "Twilight". In case you are not as fortunate as Katherine and I are to have already discovered this book to put all other books to shame, you should probably start reading. Forget about everything else, hire babysitters and call-in sick to work. It is completely possible to read this book by Friday. Be warned that once you pick the book up, you will not be able to put it down until you have finished the entire series. You can all thank me later.

More Halloween- More Tiny Pinskys
Just thought we would share our own little Wonder Pet (Tuck the Turtle) and our little Chicken. The kids and I ventured out with some friends to some shops in downtown Ann Arbor for some early trick-or-treating. Then I wrestled them down for naps so that I could re-dress them later and send them to strangers houses to ask for candy. Does anyone else find this to be a strange tradition? Well, strange, but delicious!
