In Which Jackson Pets a Goat

Tuesday morning we flew to Colorado. During our layover in Cincinnati, the boys (all 3) were playing on the moving walkways. They were just riding up one and back the other. Then Grant thought he would try something different and turned around. So now he was walking against them, like a treadmill. That occupied him for about 20 minutes before we boarded our plane.

We celebrated my dad's birthday Tuesday evening and Jackson got to help blow out the candles. Grant tried to help but he couldn't because he was 5 feet away. He kept trying to blow out a big one my mom has, but he just can't. It's pretty cute to watch him try.

Thursday we had a typical Thanksgiving, lots of food, family, and football. It was awesome.

My sister and her husband brought their Nintendo Wii with them. They brought a monster truck game for Jackson and he loved it. He couldn't actually play, but we pretended he did. I think he played for 2-3 hours straight on Saturday morning.

Saturday we went shopping, went to The Bee Movie and to a goat dairy farm. It's open on Saturdays so the kids can pet the goats and you can see where they make cheese. One goat tried to eat Jackson's finger. He had been eating candy in the car, so I figured the goat was just after the leftover sugar.

Grant's been sick the whole trip and he doesn't seem to be getting any better yet. He's coughing a little, but pretty deeply, his nose is stuffy and we fear an ear infection. So the airplane ride tomorrow could be a little interesting.
