Besides eating all of the things, of course. Unless that's just me?!

    I have to work the days before and the days after so I won't be doing much cooking not that I do much of that anyway lol. We will go to my grandparent's house in the early afternoon then DH's parent's house after that. We have been doing that for years already so we will probably just keep it that way for now. Now Christmas I am thinking I really want everyone to come to our house since our immediate family all lives pretty close and less running around for us. Although its always been a tradition to go to my grandparent's house on Christmas Eve! :)

    We will go to my Nana's for Thanksgiving "lunch" (basically dinner with all of the trimmings in the middle of the afternoon, lol), then to my DH's grandma's house for dinner. Luckily our families live within 1/2 hour of us, so not too much traveling.

    I'm FX that C does okay with all of the stimulation. I will definitely be using BF as an excuse to leave the room a few times and get some quiet cuddles in! 

    And yes, I will be eating allofthethings!!!

    I have to work Thanksgiving Day and I'm on call that night so we can't really go anywhere.  We don't live near any family, so it will be just the three of us (and the dog) together.  I ordered food from Boston Market.  We're going to just camp out and watch Football!

    My plans are to stay sane by staying home. I have made a menu and will hand out what to bring to those who want to come over. And I too plan to use EBFing as an excuse to hide from my inlaws and eating till I need to be rolled away from the table to be juiced [think violet blueberry from the old Willy wonka movie].

    We are hosting thanksgiving this year. DH will BBQ a turkey. It's sooooo yummy. Everything else is brought by family. I just have to polish the silver and set the table :] I might make a pie. My favorite is cranberry pecan.

    We're hosting the few family members we have near us: my father wife, my step sister husband, and our neighbor who always comes for turkey. DH loves to cook, so he's doing everything but the pie stepmom. I'm in charge of feeding Ella, eating, watching football, and more eating.

    We will be spending it with my parents, who will hopefully have a high chair by then! LO will get to eat sweet potatoes with us (well, sort of...hers are made with breastmilk :-p).

    Aw, that's pretty cool that she gets to join in the feasting :)

    We have our fingers crossed that everyone will be home by then, and the plan is to rock out over Nonna and Papa's with both sides of the family and eat too much :) We have our favorite cousins coming in from Michigan too, so that's awesome! 

    Hope everybody is home and happy and healthy by then!

    I am glad I'll have BFing to fall back on when the millionth person tries to hold poor DD. Also, that movie CREEPS ME OUT.
