Thanksgiving

As Thanksgiving rolled around, Dahlia and Jonah headed to the airport once again. (By the time he was seven months old, Jonah had already been on nine flights). This time, they were on their way back to Maryland to see some of their favorite people: Saba, Grandma, and many cousins!

Posing for a picture with Saba, Cousin Abigail, and Grandma Ellen:

It hadn't been too long since Saba and Jonah last saw each other. They picked up right where they left off, playing with toys and having a grand time:

Jonah also spent some quality time with his uncle Adam. Now those are two guys who are dressed up and ready to party!

Whenever Dahlia and Abigail get together, they always have a great time. The two of them are best buddies, doing arts and crafts projects, watching the Thanksgiving Day parade together, and chasing each other around the dinner table. The two of them are always in constant motion!

While Jonah and Cousin Eloise aren't as mobile as their older siblings, they also managed to enjoy each other's company:

Eloise even tried to teach Jonah how to crawl. "Come on Jonah, come crawl with me!"

Grandma and Saba have eight grandchildren between them, six girls and two boys. The girls had a great time playing with each other. What are they talking about here?

Apparently they were coming up with different ways to torture Dahlia's Daddy. They soon attacked him with everything in a pretend toolkit and doctor's bag. I don't think this "check-up" will be covered by his health plan!

Soon it was time for all of the cousins to gather on the couch for a portrait. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! We are thankful for our great families!
