Happy Thanksgiving!

So I believe that right about the time I hit "publish Post" on my last post Princess P decided that was a good time to start stirring. I tried rocking her which is not easy when you don't have a rocking chair. She seemed like she was in some sort of hyper vigalent sleep. Like she was asleep but yet conscious of what was going on. After about an hour of wrestling with her I finally got her up and fed her. I changed her and held her. After about 4 hours of this I had had enough and threw in the towel and handed her over to the boys. Joe tried to rock her but she would have none of it. Finally "Super Brett" shows up, he showed her baby Einstein videos and patted her until she finally fell asleep at 6am. We were up again at 10am and got ready for our day. When Joe got back from the passport office (which he said was really smokey...shocking I know!), Brett and I left to go to the Hermitage. We had a great time looking at the art and discussing history. Meanwhile back at the ranch Polina was left in the sole care of her father...she was terrified! :) luckily the savior of Thanksgiving was there to save the day...you guessed it, the ever charming Jaxon. Jaxon played with Polina for an hour and got her calmed down and having fun. Joe was able to put her down for a nap and then get her dressed in her super cute Turkey Day dress.

We met everyone for dinner at the Reniassance and had a fabulous dinner. Eight adults and 8 kids (5 adopted from St Petersburg). Three of the families were AAC families and one was from IAG. The hotel had prepared a special turkey dinner just for us and it was amazing. We all had a great time! On the way home our driver stopped at a local baby store and found me the next best thng to Pediasure!

Well everyone is asleep and I should be too, so I will not be proof reading this post either...enjoy.
