Day 30 - HAPPY THANKSGIVING

To everyone back home. We are missing having Thanksgiving with the family, but for a great reason. We went to Mad Murphy's to have our "Thanksgiving" meal with our adoption buddies. We had chili cheese hamburger, bbq pork sandwich, french fries and tried to imagine it was turkey. Needless to say this didn't work...lol. But we were thankful for a night out with our new friends. The weather turned cold and rainy tonight. Hopefully this is not a sign of snow on the way.

We thought we had seen everything until this morning. Remember the "anybody can be a taxi" entry? Well, this morning we saw a well dressed gentleman standing slightly in the road with his hand out for a ride. The interesting thing was in his other hand he was holding a rope which was attached to his car with the flashers going. So apparently you can not ony be a taxi but also a tow truck if willing. Sure enough someone pulled over and they agreed and he tied the rope to their bumper and off they went. David and I were cracking up.

William was his usual cheery self. We love his laugh. We spoke too soon about the red suit being gone....it reappeared today! Complete with pink, yes I said pink, booties. Apparently they are not fashion concious between boys and girls. I promissed him he would never be in pink again when we get him home. We got to feed him today. They brought in his "Thanksgiving" meal of mashed potatoes with some sort of meat mixed in. Now, I had heard stories of the gigantic "shovels" they use to basically shovel the food in as fast as they can and move on to the next baby, but I didn't believe. Well, it's true. They brought us this huge spoon "shovel", which is bigger than our table spoons (pic below). Thankfully, mama packed a spoon we had brought with us for the trip home that was more his size.

We miss everyone and can't wait to be home. Talk to you later.

On to the pics of the day....

Yes folks, the red outfit is back!

How the heck does this even fit in his mouth?

Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving!
