And The Crowd Goes Wild!
Well, maybe just Emmett. He’s learned to clap in the past week, and honestly, it’s all the kid wants to do, whether the timing is appropriate or not. Whatever – it’s darn cute…
Emmett was learning to clap while we were visiting my family in New Jersey and Pennsylvania for Thanksgiving last week. It was the first time my family was all together since Emmett and Gus were born, and the first time my extended family met Gus, so it was a lot of fun. Gus is a lot more interactive than the last time I visited with him, so it was interesting to see the two babies get along. Although most of the interactions between them involved Emmett sitting on and poking at Gus’ face, it was great to have them both in the same room.
Some highlights in pictures:
Emmett attempts a game of Patty Cake with Gus
Gus tells a very engaging story to Emmett, Aunt Lulu & Gran-D
Gran-D jumpstarts Emmett's gambling problem
Nana causes Gus to make odd facial expressions
Emmett practices his clapping
The babies’ first Thanksgiving was a big success in my opinion. And if Emmett were still in my belly, he would’ve been about the size of a 20 lb. turkey 
Hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving!

I am WAY behind on my blogging, blog reading, blog commenting, etc. (I swear I’m getting things done, just not online!), but these pictures are incredible and your captions are hilarious. Looks like everyone had a great time!
