Gobble, Gobble

Okay, so November has been a pretty dry month for pictures. But, I did manage to take ONE picture at Thanksgiving and it didn't even have any of my own kids in it. Aunt Laurel introduced Ry-Guy to the world of olives. (Well, I'm not really sure if he's eaten olives before since his parents were in HAWAII and couldn't verify this for us.) Eventually, the bowl had to be moved away from him or he would have eaten all of them. But first, each olive had to sit on his finger for a few seconds. So cute. (So, you see Natalie, Ryan survived on olives for a day.)
This isn't Thanksgiving, but I just had to document that these Texas doughnuts at Macey's actually DO get bought and ......
...eaten.
Leon told the boys that they could choose ANY doughnut and Landon said, "Even the BIG one?" "Yup, even the BIG one." So, all bug-eyed and giddy he dove into this gigantic pastry. It only took him 3 sittings to finish the whole thing - FHE treat, breakfast with his eggs, and after-school snack. I guess we DID get our $1.19 out of that big 'un. Only Landon, the last born, would have ever gotten the BIG doughnut. But, that's the name of the game, right?

I love the picture of Ryan and his olives. He was such a good baby while his parents were in HAWAII. I wish we had a picture of his pout when Mean Aunt Laurel said "no more cookies." He's a funny kid.

And yes, that is a BIG donut! It took three sittings to eat it? I could've done it in one! :)

As Taylor says it, "Ryan is addicted to olives". He's loved them for a long while and they MUST be worn first. Thanks for watching over the poor abandoned (by his parents), little man.

Nat, so you're familiar, then, with Ryan's diaper after he chain eats 50 olives? 'Cause Mom and I are, now.

Whew!
