Second mommy

Miriam doesn't miss an opportunity to parent her younger siblings. This video would have been longer, better and more cute if Mommy had been more on the ball and not run out of space on the memory card in the camera... :(

Slam dunk

Cora made several shots like this at after church at Checkrow on Thanksgiving weekend.  She loved every minute of it.  Good thing Daddy is tall!

Thanksgiving

A few shots of the girls from Thanksgiving Day at Great Grandma Ekiss' house.

Great Grandma Ekiss

The next day, Walker got to meet his other great grandparent, Great Grandma Ekiss, for the first time when we went to her house for Thanksgiving dinner.

Great Grandparents

Great Grandma and Great Grandpa Hess came down to visit the day before Thanksgiving while they were staying at [Great] Aunt Suzie's house.

Peaceful

Good times

This past Monday, Mommy took all three kids to the pediatrician (talk about FUN! :)) - Walker for his 1-month checkup, Cora for her 2-year checkup (a little early... her birthday is next Friday, the 18th) and Miriam for her second dose of the H1N1 nasal mist. While the pediatrician's office is one of my least favorite places to take three children age three and under - especially this time of year - the visit went okay. Walker weighed 12 pounds, 11 ounces which puts him in the 95th percentile for weight and he was in the 90th percentile for height. Cora was in the 92nd percentile for weight and the 95th percentile for height. I'm thanking God for healthy children who love to eat and plenty of food to feed them!
