Description: Thanksgiving looks a little different with kids — and Em and Dom are feeling it. From what they’re truly grateful for this year (babies, supportive husbands, and superhero moms) to becoming the unofficial babysitter, craft queen, and talent-show host of the holiday, they break down the chaos with heart and humor. Plus, they play Turkey Trot or Turkey Rot and judge all the classic Thanksgiving moments.
