Thanksgiving Visit to Ohio

For the week of Thanksgiving Joey, Jacob, myself, Joey's Grandma Silva, and Joey's mom drove up to Ohio. We had a wonderful time visiting family. This was the first time many of the family members had seen Jacob. It was a lot colder than it is in South Carolina, but not as bad as I thought it would be.

On the way up, we traveled until about 10 pm, and stopped to stay at a hotel. This was Jacob in the hotel bed. His first hotel visit! He had his own pack n play that he slept in and did pretty well during the night.

Before we left for Ohio, we went to the doctor to make sure his ears were clear. Thank goodness, they were clear! The doctor recommended feeding him solids to help him sleep better at night. This is Daddy feeding Jacob his one of his first bowls of cereal. He wasn't too interested at first, but he loves to eat like a big boy now! He has also been sleeping much better at night since we started the solids.

This is Jacob and cousin Tyler with Great Grandma Silva. Not too much longer, and they will both be running around, playing, all over the place!

Happy Thanksgiving! Jacob got to watch his first Thanksgiving parade! Looks like he's more interested in trying to find someone who will pick him up! Can we say spoiled?

Four Generations of Bolons:

Jacob, Daddy, Grandpa Bolon, and Great Grandpa Bolon. This was Thanksgiving Day at Aunt Becky's house.

On the way home, we sat in the backseat and had fund reading books. We finished the trip home in one day. Towards the end, Jacob got a little fussy, but did wonderful for an 11 hour trip!
