It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

silly clothes

putting up the tree!

Turns out we haven't bought North a stocking yet. For now he has one of his socks....

Mwahahahaha! -- dressing the dog and baby in silly things.

(Neither was very amused by our shenanigans)

Visit with Connor and Madi

On Saturday we got to stop by Nana and Grandad's and visit with Connor and Madi. It was so fun to see them -- we're all so excited that soon they will have a new baby brother and North will have another cousin to play with! Congratulations again Uncle Adam and Aunt Angie! (and of course Connor and Madi!)

Sweet cousin Madison

Harsh family Thanksgiving! (Friday)

On Friday we celebrated a belated Thanksgiving with the Harsh family. It was a relaxing day full of fun and food.

North and grandma were wearing matching shirts.

Grandma and Grandpa bought North a fun rocking horse that he loved.

North enjoyed watching the fire in the fireplace.

Grandma fed North sweet potatoes.

It was a very nice day.

Happy Thanksgiving!

North's first Thanksgiving!
He got to try yams for the first time. Didn't love them as much as peas but didn't dislike them.
We spent the day at Larry and Sherry's visiting with Nana's family.
Fun fun.

Cute ice-cream turkeys made by Sherry - North wasn't old enough to sample one this year but, he sure did like the looks of them.

Visiting with Gigi

Turkey nap -- maybe once North is eating turkey he will sleep!

Cousins Katie and Luke

Hungry

North is a great little eater. It's so fun to introduce him to new foods.
So far he likes rice cereal, potatoes, and yams. He hates carrots. He loves peas.
Here are some pictures of our culinary adventures to date.

Little chatterbox.

North has started to become a little chatterbox. It's wonderful and sweet and hilarious.

Fun times at Campus View today...

Cute pictures of North playing with Elizabeth. So fun.
