This is one of Jesse's favorite things to do as of this week. He loves playing with this big tub of dry beans, using various spoons and scoops to transfer them between different cups and buckets. It occupies him for a really good length of time, which most toys will not do.
He was really mad about me taking his picture. As soon as I got the camera out, he started saying "No, Mommy, No". This is what he was yelling in the picture below.
Another favorite game is "hide and seek", but we really only play it when James is home, because it requires three of us. One person has to hide, and one person has to go with Jesse to seek. He loves looking all over for James. This was James' trickiest hiding spot (between the bed and the wall), and Jesse had to try it out, too. Sometimes Jesse wants to hide, but of course his version of the game is more like "come into the room where I'm hiding and I will let you know where I am by screaming hello".
And last, but not least, we celebrated Thanksgiving yesterday with some of our friends. It was a Canadian-American Thanksgiving, and we certainly had a feast! Turkey, dressing, gravy, cranberry sauce, rolls, sweet potato casserole, green bean casserole, roasted carrots and parsnips, pumpkin pie and pecan pie. Everything was so delicious, and Andrea did a great job of making the table festive.
Jesse and Lilah had their own table, but I'm afraid Jesse did not appreciate all the good food (with the exception of the pumpkin pie). We couldn't get them to both look at the same time for this picture. Jesse was having more fun stabbing his roll with his fork than eating his food.
