Happy Thanksgiving!!

Grace November Videos

Hey all!  Just a couple of little video clips from the past few weeks.... 

She's getting pretty good at using a spoon, and can usually finish whatever we give her on her own.

She's walking all over now - and even starting to run a little when she knows she's going to get a diaper change!  Here she is in her Sunday dress keeping track of the TV remote for us (!)

She loves to blow her nose (seriously).  Which considering the time of year is a really good thing...
we just hope she'll use kleenex next time.  hahaha

November

It got cold this last week, so she got to wear her new mittens -
but that didn't stop her from sucking her favorite thumb!

She loves to get into the kitchen linen drawer, and for some reason was packing this oven mitt all over the house one morning tucked under her chin.  So funny!

Aunt Jody came by for a visit a few weeks ago and brought her a cute Santa ornament with her name on it.  
Thanks Aunt Jody & Uncle Terry!

Checking out her cute pink pony from Grandma Terry and Grandpa Jim.

Dentist Visit!

Grace had her first "happy visit" at the dentist's office last week.  She got to sit in the chair and ride it up and down, she got a new toothbrush and the cutest little floss picks, and let the hygienist look at her teeth (briefly!) while she played with the little mirror they use. 
She was a really good girl and got her picture taken afterwards.

Our little bunny trick-or-treating around the neighborhood...

She REALLY enjoyed that tootsie pop - afterwards it was into the bath for Ms. Grace!

 

We're walking!

She took a few steps on Sunday the 17th, and is really starting to get the hang of it, going between chairs, etc.  Last night she walked all the way from the living room to me in the kitchen. 

Click the links below to see all the fun action!  It is adorable to watch her get so excited about it!!

Three little girls kept their Grandpa Tom very busy this past weekend!  We had a great time in Portland with Matt, Sarah, Anna and Mila, and were there to celebrate Mila's 1st birthday!  Looks like Grandpa finally got a rest - whew!

Just a cute pic wearing an adorable birthday outfit from Melissa, Shawn and the kids.
Cute as a button...

"Hmmm.... I wonder if I will find anything interesting in this cabinet??"

"Oh! Did you NEED these napkins?  I didn't realize you could see me peeking at you!"

"Now if I can just get the evidence off my foot...."

"Better make my get-away!  The kitchen cabinet bandit rides again!"
