Our First Thanksgiving

Our first Thanksgiving was so much fun!

Check out my new 'do!

Mommy says I'm handsome ;)

We went to Mimi and Granddad's house, and guess who was there? 

I love my Granddad Johnny! 

Grandma Margie knows how to snuggle! And she doesn't even mind the mashed potatoes in my hair ;)

                                          We had fun playing with all of our "Mimi toys."

                                        And then we helped Granddad baby-proof the house.

But the best part was the food!

My mashed potato facial.

Eating is my favorite!!

The next day, we had another surprise...PaPa came to town!

I love it when PaPa reads to me!

 PaPa took us to lunch at Prairie house. We looooove to eat out!



Here we are at our favorite place to eat breakfast in Roanoke, Dove Creek Cafe'.  

My favorite thing is the food!

Forget the food! I'd rather flirt with the waitresses!

All in all, it was a great weekend.  Mommy and Daddy say they have a lot to be thankful for this year.  

Ya'll stay warm, now!

How Time Flies...

Wow.  I can't believe how much time has passed since I last posted on this blog.  Two whole months is a long time in "babyland!"  This fall has been incredibly busy for us, but don't worry, I got lots of pictures!

Will and Sydney have changed so much over the past two months!  They are a few days away from their 10-month birthday, and are 8 months adjusted.  It looks like last time I posted they had just perfected their sitting skills.  They have come a long way since then!   At their last doctor visit we had an in-depth developmental evaluation to make sure they were progressing normally in all areas, and both are right on track for their adjusted age.  And boy, have they grown!  Sydney weighs a little over 18 pounds and is about 27 inches tall and is wearing 6-9 month clothes. Will is topping out at 23 pounds and 29 inches tall, and is wearing 18-24 month clothes.  We are very thankful to have two happy, healthy babies!

Here are some pictures from the past couple of months.  We are so excited to experience our first holiday season with little ones.  Everything is so much more fun!

Blue jean baby...

Happy from the moment I wake up!

Our first ride on the Forest Park Mini Train!  They both loved it!

You still up there, Mom?

Crazy hair at breakfast!  Mom has given me a couple haircuts since this picture was taken.

Sweet, sweet baby!

These again? Aren't we done with these stickers yet?

Practicing for American Idol.

I can be a ham, too!

We are looking more alike as we get older. This picture is a little spooky!

Oh, and did I mention we are both mobile?  Yikes!

Our first trip to the pumpkin patch.  Sydney was less than impressed!

More fun at the patch.  For more pictures, click here.

More pumpkin pics from our own little "patch" in the garden.

 

Two baby pumpkins.

Snaggle teeth!

Love that smile.

Sweet cheeks

Mommy gave me a donut hole!

Me too! It was awesome!

Best day ever!

Wild animals on Halloween!

My little zebra.

Grrr!

Soooo over these pictures.

Next stop...walking!

Where does the time go?

See you next time!
