Pass The Turkey

And by turkey, I mean baby.  But you knew that, right?  You know I didn't eat any turkey. 

Our holiday was full of all the important things.  Family, pie, and lots of baby-time.  Baby Gabe got passed around more times than the basket of rolls! 

Tired turkey!

He just loves his mommy.

She's got the cutest boys. ♥

Passed to Grandpa.

One-handed baby hold.

Drew's pretty comfy to cuddle up to.

Shut the front door.  You know he's cute.

Back to Grandpa!

When will this turkey wake up?

Hand-off to Grandma.  And he's awake!!!

Ohhh, and he's c-ranky.

"No more photos!"

He's crying because he loves me so much.


There's my sleepy boy.
Okay, so Gabe was the star of Thanksgiving.  But let's not get crazy and forget about dessert.  I made my now-famous pumpkin cheesecake, but the real stars were the sauces.

Cheesecake, Pinterest Caramel, and Maple Whisky Cream Sauce.
After lots of trial and error, we found that your best bet is just to top everything with both sauces.  Lots.

Two kinds of pie, cheesecake, and two sauces.  That's what Thanksgiving means to me.

I should also mention that Gabe got lots of competition from two new, fantastic, family members.  Meet Henry and Andrew.

Henry; who I love.

And Andrew; who I just want to squeeze.  Look at that face!
Lots of sweet faces (and lots of sweets) at Thanksgiving.  My sweet boys ended the night cuddled up in blankets with Grandma. 

Awwwwwwww!!!
We have so much to be thankful for this year.  Even if things aren't the way we imagined they would be, they still turned out pretty wonderful. 

Happy Turkey Day!
