Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was smaller than normal this year (only 18 people, including Cashel and Josie), but it was a lot of fun. Josie got to spend time with her aunt, uncles, cousins and even her great-great uncle. She was just happily passed from person to person, very curious about what was going on but completely content.

New Friend

We had a great time in LA. Thanksgiving was a lot of fun (pictures to follow) and Josie got to meet lots more family. She had a great time with her first cousin Cashel.I didn't expect it, but they were actually quite fascinated with each other. I didn't catch the really good staring contests on video, but here's a fun one...

1st Class

we took our first flight yesterday from Chicago to LA. Lucky me I had some upgrades and we were able to snag a seat in 1st class. As Nick said, it took him 30 years to get in 1st class (and me nearly as long) but Josie manages after 12 short weeks.

I tried to get a better picture, but was probably still distracted from the poo explosion that detonated shortly after take off. Thank goodness the air sick bags are designed to hold in wet, stinky messes. If the outfit weren't so cute, I probably would have thrown them out. They were that gross. The rest of the flight went really well. What a relief. Here's hoping the return flight (most likely in coach *sigh*) goes as smooth.
