baby's first thanksgiving

Princess had a lovely Thanksgiving surrounded by adoring family and lots of loving arms. She sampled her first taste of turkey, cranberry sauce, and delicious, healthy corn dressing (compliments of Nanny).

Baby girl is cutting two new teeth (total: five!). Needless to say, she loved all the food and has informed me that she cannot wait until next year when she has mastered chewing.

She loved Mason most of all, who would do anything to make Princess belly laugh. Sweet Mason would kiss her hand and say "I like you, Baby." So cute.

Happy Thanksgiving, sweetie. I have lots to be thankful for this year!

















Iris with Aunt Katie.

















Silly brother.




















Andrew, Mason, and Princess


















Uncle Jon - being silly. Andrew took this shot, which explains the tilted artistic look.



















One of the few pictures taken of me and Iris together. Again, taken by big brother A.






















Aunt Su-Su holding Iris after her nap. She was still a little groggy, but probably ready for more turkey.




















We decided to go for a walk after dinner. Iris needed convincing that this was a good idea.



























Mason and Rebecca pushing Iris. (um, excuse the awful scenery - Galveston is still recovering)
























Soon everyone was happy and having a good time. Andrew was having fun with creative ways to push Iris in the stroller.
























Andrew wanted to show Iris this lawn frog. Apparently lawn frogs are very scary to little babies. Duly noted.
