4 Months Old on Noel Night

Last night I had a lot of fun because not only did I turn 4 months old, I also got to participate in my first Christmas celebration. In case you are not familiar - in one of the major cities near where I live, they open up a portion of town and all the museums are free to the public. Mom and Dad thought since I loved our Christmas tree so much, I might really love to walk through these festivities. Our first stop was at the Historical Museum, where we learned more about the city. Mom and Dad also joined me in meeting Santa and Mrs. Clause. That was not the highlight though. The true highlight was when we went to get up and I pulled Santa's beard. Now, I always pull Mom's hair but they just thought that was a game I play. Well I showed them. Dad had to literally pry each one of my fingers off of Santa's beard so that he could have it back. We will never forget that one! Our next stop was to check out some of the new condos they are building, and finally we stopped at the Art Institute. It was pretty cool but it was getting to my bedtime and I started feeling a little tired. It was such a cool place, with Christmas decorations, and things hanging from the ceiling that I had to stay awake. Mom and Dad thought this would be a good place to end our night before I really fell out! On our way home, I crashed and slept pretty good last night. It was a nice evening out.





I am having fun and can't believe that I am already 4 months. Here is what I am all about now . . .

Do You LIke My Hat?

Yes,I know. It is still a little big, but doesn't it look cute? Mom and Dad can't seem to find me a winter hat anywhere so I got this one. Sure, I have plenty of hats but not winter hats. I guess Mom and Dad didn't realize they had to start so early to get me a great winter hat. Never to be let down, Mom and Dad searched until we finally found a great set. Yes, it is still a little big but it works! Mom thought I looked pretty cute in this one but we will be sure to show you the new one once I try it out!

Happy Thanksgiving

I know we are a couple of days late but we wanted to say Happy Thanksgiving to you all! We hope that you were able to enjoy family, friends, good food, and good times together.

I went on another roadtrip to see Granny for a couple of days and then was back on the road to see Mamaw, Papaw, and the cousins. It has been a blast to see everyone. I am having so much fun and am thanksful for family most during this time of year. HAPPY THANKSGIVING and be thankful for all!

Grabbing . . .

I am at the point now where you have to look out! I am on a mission to grab anything I can. Now, I cannot move too great yet but I scoot myself enough to get to what I am trying to get. Mom has been working with me to grab at toys and well she did it now! I grab alright. And since I am a slabber machine, everything goes in my mouth. Mom and Dad are working to make sure anything in my reach is able to safely go in my mouth. I have a few toys that I like to play with and this is one that is the easiest for me to grab and take straight to my mouth! Look out!

My First Snow

I have officially seen snow! It is so pretty, I loved watching it out the picture window in the living room so Mom thought this would be the perfect opportunity to test out one of my snowsuits. I got all suited up and went outside for a minute or two, just long enough really to document my first snow. I really enjoyed it and I did not even get cold. My snowsuit is a little big but very warm. Mom bundled up with me but you see my silly Dad with no coat? I cannot wait until I am old enough to actually play in it. Maybe next year!

Knocked Out!

I am getting so big! I love to sleep in my swing during the day and when I sleep, I am knocked out. I have started rubbing my eyes whenever I am tired, so it is so great for Mom and Dad to know to put me down and let me try to fall asleep all on my own. I am becoming a better sleeper every day!

I'm 3 Months Old!

Today, I am 3 months old! Can you believe it? Mom and Dad are having a hard time swallowing the idea that I am already 3 months. But they have no problem admitting that I am the cutest 3 month ever! (No bias huh?)
