Happpy Turkey Day

What a great Turkey day it was. Xavier loved it! He had an audience to perform to and lots of food to eat. Let's see, the Lopez abuelos and Anello grandparents were all here. He also had all his aunts and his uncles in the same room. Aunt Tsubasa's parents and her sister were here too! It was a great potluck effort and went well, minus the fact that the magical great, great-grandmother Lucia's pan cooked the turkey in record time. The 20lb bird was done in under three and half hours!

Oh, wow!

BTW, this is Xavier's favorite new expression. When he sees a bus, a bird or a plane in the air. Thanksgiving morning he looked at the birds at our back window and yelled, "Oh, WOOOOW, what's that!?" It all sounded like one word, but was so clear. I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't heard it myself and if Daniel hadn't been there to verify it. He also sounds like he's trying to say yummy, like after he had some of uncle Gabi's apple pie or grandpa's pumpkin pie. Favorite thanksgiving food? Hmm, stuffing and pumpkin pie got pretty good reactions.

We had to take him to his room because he was being such a ham. He just went on with the show when he was in his room.
