Giving Thanks


Mommy, Daddy, Auntie Brittany and Uncle Johnny took Bella and me to a cabin in the Great Smoky Mountains of N. Carolina for three days over Thanksgiving. The forest was really pretty, but I usually fell asleep when we went on walks. Nothing quite compares to cozy sleeping in my baby Bjorn!
Thanksgiving dinner sure smelled good. I helped direct the cooking from my bouncy chair - that
chair is one of my favorite things. When I'm tired or cranky, the vibration button calms me down and makes me feel like I'm getting a massage. It was nice to have all that time together as a family. I hope we can do that again soon!
Yesterday, Daddy said my cheeks had grown overnight, but he's teasing. You can see from my picture that they had already grown by Thanksgiving.


I'm definitely getting bigger. I went through a growth spurt right around November 24th, and I don't swim in my clothes anymore. I don't get weighed again until Jan. 31st. I had been sleeping 5-6 hours at night since the middle of November, but now, I'm pretty consistent about sleeping 6 hours and then another 3-4. I joined a neighborhood playgroup and I'll get to meet the other babies today. I hope they're nice!

Happy Halloween!

Auntie Brittany and Uncle Johnny threw a Halloween party and I went as a mouse! Mommy and Daddy let me stay up as late as I wanted, but I still fell asleep while watching Monster House and didn't even wake up when they all played Rock Band.
