i was looking at "baby's first Christmas" stockings at hobby lobby yesterday and thought we should get you one, when i realized that this won't be your first Christmas. But! this is your first thanksgiving! it is your last major "first" holiday. you definitely enjoyed yourself.
thanksgiving will always be extra-exciting for you and sam, because we end up celebrating your birthdays on thanksgiving as well as
celebrating all the things we are thankful for, like family, health, Jesus, food, etc. i suppose it is perfectly fitting to celebrate your birthdays this day, because your daddy and i are certainly thankful for you and sam. next year, your birthday will actually be on thanksgiving. this year, pappy's birthday is on thanksgiving. it will always be a crazy day for our family.we went to see your grandma and papa, and we ate lots of food and had fun together. you ate
some turkey, and some jello stuff, and also the top part of your cake. daddy helped you blow ou
t the candle and made sure you didn't grab the fire, like sam did on his first birthday. you wanted to. 
we had to strip you down afterwards, since there was pink icing smeared all over your arms and face.you got a unicorn to ride on, and a rocking chair that matched sam's, and also a balloon that you loved. but you let it go outside when we were leaving. you didn't mind, but sam was super sad about it.
tomorrow, we'll go have more thanksgiving and more birthday, with grandma and pappy and your cousins and great grandmas and aunt and uncle and great uncle in oklahoma.
i'm so thankful for you!
love, mom
