Happy Thanksgiving 2010!


I know its late, but Happy belated Thanksgiving! Some old Maryland friends (who moved to the TYson's corner area of Virginia) invited us for Thanksgiving. So, we happily cooked up a few dishes and made our way there to spend some time with "the other Smiths" and their 6 boys. It was so nice it felt like we were with family. We had a ball visiting, eating, and playing. We are sure grateful for the countless blessings we have been given! Here are a couple snapshots of the kids in their Tahnksgiving bibs that Grandma Jocelyn made for them. Sophie loves them!
In other news, Sophie is trying to learn to read as well as leanr the concept of money. Just yesturday, with her own money she had been collecting, she bought herself her own Hello Kitty nail polish ("poe nolish," as she often calls it) that she just HAD to have. SHe is decked out with sparkly nails today. Ryan has started saying some more words ("mama," "dog," "please," "sauce," "night night") and signing for things he wants ("please", "no", "drink"). He is not as verbal as Sophie was at this age, nor is his brain constantly "computing" as her is, but he sure figures things out fast and is quite determined! He is also is a book worm and also so very loving, cuddly, and sweet. We love our family and are so grateful everyday for each other.
