So much to be thankful for!

We hope that you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We definitely feel very blessed to have spent our holiday with our families and Kueffer loved seeing everyone! It was so much fun watching him play with the other children and he really enjoyed the yummy food! He actually pulled the dining chair out and tried to climb up into the chair to get started before everyone else!

*Note the 'gobble' on Kueffer's shirt. He had been saying 'gobble, gobble' all week...then Thanksgiving finally arrives, and nothing...never said it all day. Kids.

On Friday, Grandpa Bob and Grandma Mary Ann came for a visit with Aunt Bobbi...they were so excited to see him and he LOVED spending time with them. Can you say 'spoiled'? :)

We have so much to be thankful for!

We're Back!!!

We had a wonderful time in Florida! Kueffer was a great little traveller, well until the last hour of the flight home...but that only lasted a few minutes. We were able to relax and enjoy the warm weather, going to the beach every day while there! Here are a few pictures of us 'travelin'. No, you definitely DO NOT travel light with a little one, but all of the props and snacks are worth it!

Luckily, this is how Kueffer looked during most of our flight time.

Snacks are VERY IMPORTANT!

On Mommy's birthday, Kueffer had his first ice cream cone and he LOVED it! He enjoyed every bit of the ice cream and cone...for the first time ever, there was nothing left in the high chair or floor. Baby's got a sweet tooth!

This past weekend we visited our friends Amy and Casey for a wonderful dinner and had the best time chatting and watching the kids play together. As you can see from the video, little Maggie and Kueffer had a great time. We love that our littles have so much fun together!

Ready for the cold weather

Oh, wait...we don't have to get ready. We are going to FLORIDA! Leaving tomorrow and back next week- hopefully sporting some fresh tans. Enjoy the cold, Kansas City!

Kueffer has been learning to eat with a fork and spoon and is actually pretty good at both. Today, he found a way to get MORE food on the spoon and into his mouth!

The Dawdy's salute to Caddyshack!

Last year Mommy felt a little cheated out of our big win, but this year...the Dawdy's did it! We won Best Family Costume at our playgroup's halloween party...okay, not the stiffest of competition, but a win none the less. You could say that Mommy is a bit competitive.

Here is pic of the winning family as 'Caddyshack'! (sorry for the poor photo quality.)

(yes, a little 'kitty' was trying to sneak into our photo with her cookie!)

We would like to thank 'Gopher' for being a part of the family that day...we think that may have given us the edge we needed! Oh, and isn't Kueffer the most adorable golfer? Also have to say that Daddy was a VERY good sport and seemed to really get into character. He may have originally acted like he wasn't interested in dressing up as Bill Murray, but we know he secretly loved it!
