We've let him start watching some cartoons. His favorite is Tigger and Pooh. He gets so excited to watch that he stands right infront of the TV. Also, since he has so many teeth we've started brushing them. He loves watching us while we brush so we started brushing his as well. He has a little grin on his face while we brush them.
Thanksgiving was spent at the Kearney's in Chaska. The whole gang was home, so we had 8 adults, 2 toddlers, 2 infants, and 2 dogs. A good time was had by all, except D.J. had bronchitis and was coughing most of the time. Alex enjoyed spending time with his cousins. He was very interested in Jon as they are only 5 weeks apart. They will be a handful as they get older... I see many mischevous adventures in the future. Since we had so many people we wanted to cook an extra bird, but Alex wouldn't sit still long enough to baste him.
Julie's birthday was on the 27th of November, she turned 27. Since it was her "golden" birthday we threw her a surprise party while home in Chaska. Julie's parents and brother came in from Amery as well as some other of Julie's friends. Needless to say she was very surprised and happy to see everyone. And she got to have her favorite, Dairy Queen ice cream cake.
With all the cold weather we got the chance to bundle Alex up in his elf and marshallow man winter outfits. And since the snow blower needs a tune up he came out side to help Mommy and Daddy shovel snow, he's got a smile on his face so I think he had a good time. 
November has brought us many projects. The highlight came when D.J.'s parents came out to visit and his dad helped him put up crown molding and some cabinet work. After 12 hours the job was done (without any major injuries) and they sat back to admired their work over a cold beverage.
