Cousin Fun

Our KC cousins came down for a visit for Thanksgiving this year.  We were rather excited since we don't get to see these guys too often.  

Upon their arrival we all met up at the movie theaters (Jonas stayed back with Daddy - we ALL know he can't hold still for a movie).  Addison and I met up with them and got to see "Wreck it Ralph"  (It's now the name I've coined Jonas - totally fits).  Surprisingly the only one not sold out was the 3-D version.  Which meant Grandma Fields bailed and went back home.  I didn't know how Addison would do with the glasses but luckily taking them off or on didn't really affect the screen like I thought it would.  Overall, it was a great movie and a great time catching up with cousins.  At least as much catching up as you can do in a packed movie-theater in the dark....on different rows from each other.  ;-)

Part of our cousin fun included Addison's very first sleepover at Aunt Sarah's.  I didn't know if she'd quite "get-it" at least the part where Mommy would not be there with her.  She didn't seem to mind and was rather excited to go home and pack her "pack-pack" with all her gear.  Jammies, stuffed animals, change of clothes, and panties.  We dropped her off and she wasn't phased at all.  She even got to sleep in Karah's big girl bed with Karah, Megan, and Laney.  However, just as true as sleepovers go, she didn't actually get much sleep.  She had a blast but I'm not so sure her cousins did when they got to suffer the effects of the grumpy Addison the next day.  I actually wondered if I'd be getting a call in the middle of the night to rescue her but surprisingly that call didn't come until morning time when Uncle Tom called and said "Addison's awake and ready for her Mommy to come get her"  Isn't she cute?  Her first sleepover was a smashing success!  Next post:  Turkey Day!!
