Wedding, Wedding, Giving Thanks

In the last couple of weeks, Reed attended his first wedding...

...had his first dance with a lovely lady...

....and also attended his second wedding.  Ha.

Yes, I did wear the same thing to both.  That dress is easy to nurse in, which keeps babies happy during weddings...the first of which was held outdoors in the rain.

I stood and nursed Reed during the whole ceremony, while Jess and Megan held umbrellas over us.  We moved inside for the reception, as you can see in the first couple pictures up there.

When we got back to the hotel, where Tyra was babysitting the big kids, she took our first ever attempt at a family picture, since becoming a family of 6.  We never took one in the hospital.  :(  

This first one wasn't the biggest success, for a variety of reasons.  Haha. 

That wedding required the little man's first trip to Phoenix.

The way there was much smoother than the way home, but we made it back.  We'd squeezed in a trip to Ikea, so that night Cason helped Jess put together his new dresser.  That called for a flying high five.

The next day we put together a toy storage shelf for the playroom, and Cason and Neely proudly helped with Reed's highchair.  (Not necessary for a while, but we may not be near an Ikea again by the time he needs it)

Reed also enjoyed his first Thanksgiving.  Our phones were dead for a good part of the day so we didn't really take pictures for most of it.  It was a nice one though, and felt relatively stress free too.  Ha.  We did get this picture of Reed loving Aunt Mollie...

 ...this one of him being cute when we came home...

...and Neely and Gia passed out together.

 Now, I'll finish with a picture of Reed napping in the cutest of ways.

...and Neely in her adorable new pajamas, which were also acquired on our Phoenix trip.
