We are up in Massena, NY, for Thanksgiving. We drove up Monday, and it started as a much better trip than usual due to this fantastic invention called a portable DVD player (it's a 6 1/2 hour drive without stops, and let me tell you, it's not a popular drive with the toddler set). But lunch didn't sit so well with Riley and we discovered she has motion sickness. Four times in four hours to be exact. The DVD player might have attributed to the motion sickness, but given how otherwise quiet the trip was, I'm not sure which I prefer - 6 hours of whining or a smelly nasty car and 4 fast baby clothes changes in the freezing cold. Riley may disagree, but I think I prefer the latter (you might too if you listened to them whine for 6 hours). Anyway, we called the pediatrician for some tips and are hoping for a smoother ride home.
Kelli and family are here too, and the girls are having a blast with cousin MacKenzie as usual. They brought the girls their Christmas and birthday presents
again this year, so they had an exciting day. They had a lot of fun in the mini ball pit. Here's the view from above:

Thanks for the fun toys guys! Unfortunately, we now need a bigger house.
Fingers crossed that our Santa visit on Friday goes better than
last year!
