We had an enjoyable weekend. We loved having Michael home from work for a few day with us! Turkey day was spent with Michael's mom's side of the family. The food was really good! I think the best part of the day was that Kayleigh took a 2 hour nap at Michael's parent's house. I was amazed! She needed it though, and was so happy the rest of the night.
Friday we did not do any shopping, much to my dismay. I really would love to get up early and go shopping, but I'd want someone to go with and I'm not sure who would go with me. Plus, I'd want some money to spend so without that it's pretty pointless to go I guess. Funny thing is, I found out later on Friday that my parents went out at 4:30 in the morning! I totally would have gone with them if I'd known! Maybe next year we can plan it and I can go.
We did get all of our Christmas decorations out though. This has gotten me in the Christmas mood a little more now. I'm excited for the busy month ahead of us. I think our tree looks cute this year and we even put some garland outside on our front rail. Michael also got to go golfing, he played pretty good and had fun. That night we went to Wingers for dinner and finished the night off with some grocery shopping.
At Wingers Michael got their all you can eat sticky finger meal. Kayleigh wanted to try some of his chicken so he gave her a little piece. She chewed for a few seconds and then made the funniest face and said "Picy!" We are pretty sure she meant "Spicy" and the funny thing is we didn't even know she knew what that word meant! The sticky fingers are pretty spicy I think, we got a good laugh out of her!
On Saturday I worked in the morning while Michael watched Kayleigh and wrapped our tree trunk outside so it won't get damaged with the cold weather ahead. Michael ran some errands in the afternoon and I stayed home with Kayleigh. I had put her in her high chair for some lunch and she quickly fell asleep in her chair. I guess that's what happens when you won't take a nap when Mommy says it's time. It was pretty cute! I transported her to her room and she stayed asleep.
That evening we went to my parent's house for some soup and rolls. After dinner we tagged along as my parents and sister's family went to pick out Christmas trees.
There's a tree lot that our family has gone to over the years and liked the style of trees they have. We have a fake tree, but it was still fun to go and smell that wonderful pine smell! After two trees were picked out we had some hot chocolate and cream puffs. It was yummy!
As you all know from past posts on this blog, Kayleigh loves treats! Well, she now knows how to open the pantry door and get into the treat bowl. Today Michael and I were busy and when we hadn't heard Kayleigh we went searching. She was in our extra room in the corner opening a Hershey's Kiss. We both about died, it was so funny! Needless to say, the treat bowl has been moved, it's now on the top shelf where she cannot reach it. :-)
