Ah, I did it! I made my very first ever Thanksgiving Day feast! Ya!
I don't want to toot my own horn, ok, I will... it turned out great! I was unsure about making my first turkey but after several calls to my Mom and one call to my mother in law I finally got it in order and the turkey turned out perfect!
My Dad, Step-Mom Joni and Grandma came to town from Illinois, they say they are here for the holiday weekend but I really think they are here to see Lola! She was very excited to share her first Thanksgiving with everyone. As we feasted on turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, asparagus, butternut squash, steamed green beans & stuffed cranberry sauce Lola was less than thrilled to eat her oatmeal & bananas.
Bruce had a great day today. I cooked all those goodies that come in the pouch in the middle of the turkey for him! That boy was by my side all day long. He's curretnly fast asleep on the couch, I think he ate too much.
In other fantastic Lola news she has slept through the night 3 days in a row now! Ya! We've got our fingers crossed that this is a new trend that's here to stay! Way to go Lola!
The staff here at Lola's blog wishes you all a great hoiday season!

Happy 1st Thanksgiving Lola!!! I'm surprised your table could hold all the food your mom had on it ... WOW! She's amazing, isn't she??! Great job on sleeping through the night. You're such a big girl! We love you and can't wait to see you in Dec.
Way to go Lola!! Sleeping through the night. I'm looking forward to my next visit and getting a full nights sleep.
I'm glad to know the Thanksgiving feast was a success.
Show off! You're just trying to make me look bad with my Bob Evans mashed potatoes and baby who wakes up at 5 in the morning.
