Ally came to Toledo to meet little Max this weekend, and we had so much fun! She was such a big help...especially when it came to entertaining Sam! We LOVED having her here.
We ate out for Thanksgiving again this year and it was so lovely and stress-free! For some reason doing something so non-traditional makes it a little easier to be away from family!! We were definitely the youngest table of people at the entire place; and we received several parenting tips from the numerous 'grandmothers' eating around us. I just had to giggle at one lady telling me she was worried my baby was going to suffocate in his carseat, and another who suggested that my 2 year old should drink milk and not Sprite. It was Thanksgiving for goodness sake...of course my kid can drink Sprite!!
Instead of bargain hunting on Black Friday we went Christmas tree hunting. The tree farm we found was wonderful! It was a little chilly, but fun nonetheless. Sam just loved being able to run outside.
It didn't take us long to find the perfect tree.
Ally tried to convince us to get this one...
We were THIS close, but we worried that it wasn't big enough.Here's our little tree all decked out. We LOVE it!
And I couldn't help but add this little picture:
I feel like Max is getting so big...especially his cheeks!! We just love this little boy!

Lindsay,
This is Amber Robinson/Wilson, Cari's old roommate and we lived at King Henry together. Anyway, I have been blog stalking you for a while and thought I should "reveal" myself :)
Your family is too adorable. Congrads on your new addition. Email me at amariewilson26@yahoo.com and I'll send you an invite to our blog (if you want of course). We essentially live in Mexico so per my mom's request our blog is private! :)
Linds...CUTEST little family! You do not look like you just had a baby!
cute cute pictures! I'm jealous that I wasn't invited! It looks like you guys had so much fun this weekend. The tree looks cute, but I think you should have gone with the fat one... you could have just cut off the sides to fit it through the door! Love you guys
ps... Ally is so fake sleeping in that picture!
Kels...you totally caught Ally fake sleeping! She has the slightest of smiles on her face.
And FYI...you are ALWAYS invited! It would have been even more fun with YOU! Come to TOLEDO! Please?
How fun to have your sis come and visit and I love your Christmas tree! How fun to have a tree this year.
Dear Lindsay, Eric, Sam and Max. What a memorable Thanksgiving you had. I am so happy that Ally could be with you. I just love your blog. I am so grateful that I can get acquainted with little Max, via the internet. What a darling. I'll write you a letter on the e-mail. I love you all. Always and forever, Grandma VERDA
You may never see this comment down at the very bottom, but I hope you do. I totally forgot your sister was coming out(sorry, I tend to get caught up in me sometimes.) I am glad you had a great visit. I am sorry that I never got in touch with you again on Monday. I am sure we will see you tomorrow. Max is getting big! I need to come see him soon! I hope you are bringing him to enrichment tomorrow.
I don't think I have told you congrats! Little Max is so cute! It sounds like everything is going well with your two little boys. It will be fun for Jordan & Max to meet, being just a few days apart :) Good luck with everything!
