Grandude and Me

Grandude and I had lots of fun playing together. One of our favorite things to do,besides watch football, was to play with Wally, the dog. Wally would bring me his ball and I'd pick it up and give it back to him. We even played a game of tug-a-war.

Carosel Ride

I got to ride on a Carosel for the first time over the weekend. I wasn't too sure what was going on but I never cried. Mommy loves these pictures of me. They're some of her favorite.

Thanksgiving

I had a great time in Orange County for my first Thanksgiving. I got to meet some of my family that I hadn't seen before. I of course stole the show with my charm. We passed a turkey hat around the table and everyone had to wear it and say what they were thankful for. Many people said me! I liked wearing the turkey hat and it made me laugh to see other people wear it.

Learning to Crawl

Family Photo Shoot

We had our pictures taken for our Christmas card. I had fun playing in the leaves and sitting up in the tree. Don't worry, daddy was holding me. I turned 8 months this week and I'm becoming more mobile. I've almost got crawling down.I can get on all fours and even do a push up. I can go backwards but I can't seem to move my arms to go forwards. I can slide off the couch and stand holding on. Grandude taught me this and mommy was so thrilled(ha ha). She was actually pretty amazed. I've been saying "da-da" for about a month and today for the first time I said "ma-ma" with a mouth full of oatmeal. My bottom two teeth have come in and now I'm getting the top two. Life is good and adventurous. I love to explore and play with blocks.

Knott's Berry Farm

Mommy had a girls weekend in Orange County. I got to go with her because Glamma and Grandude were babysitting me. Grandude and Glamma got in free to Knott's Berry Farm because Grandude's a Veteran. They thought it would be fun to take me to Camp Snoopy. I could only go on one ride but it was sure fun. Mommy and Miss Kristen got to go too. They hung out with us for a little while and then did "mommy things". I went home and had a nice long nap.
