Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!  This past weekend was Thanksgiving and Juliet's grandma (my mom) held a Thanksgiving dinner at her house.  Aunt Cathy and Uncle Marcelo were there, as were grandpa and Aunt Shona.  We joked that it was sort of like our version of 'Modern Family' since my parents are divorced but are obviously still able to maintain a friendship and get together on special occasions like Thanksgiving.  It was a great time!

Leo tends to Juliet in the swing as we prepared to start our feast.

Aunt Shona spent quite a bit of time holding Juliet.

Now I'm going to go all Memento and tell you about what Juliet was up to in the week leading up to Thanksgiving.  Leo was away on business most of the week.  As I've mentioned, Juliet doesn't really nap very much during the day, so it makes for a long day and I always look forward to when Leo comes home from work.  So with him gone, I decided to stay with Juliet's grandma so that I could have some help.  Grandma lives in the suburbs, so I had to find some suburban things to do.

Here we are at the Zellers Restaurant.  Now that we're buying a house we have to pinch those pennies!

When Leo got home from his business trip we went for dinner at a local pub.  I think Juliet had one too many, she looks pretty drunk here.  This was taken right after she made a bit of a scene.  (I'm joking - please don't call CAS on us) :)

On Saturday we went to a couple of carpet stores since that is one of the few things we plan on changing before we move into our new house.

Randomly, Juliet is getting pretty good at tummy time.  I keep trying to get her to flip back to her back, but she hasn't done it yet.  I got this cute pic of her doing tummy time a couple of days ago.  Check out the cute shoes.

Also on the weekend, we had brunch at our friends Dave and Eva's house.  They have a 16-month old son, so we've learned a lot from them about things to come.  They live near our new house, so Juliet might even go to the same daycare as their son.

Juliet naps on the donut while we finished brunch.

And finally, I've saved the best for last.  We went to the driving range so that Leo could practise his new golf skills (his mom and I got him private lessons for his birthday).  He did really well and Juliet was impressed!

Juliet loves hanging with her dad.
