Thanksgiving Day

We celebrated Thanksgiving with both sides of the family at our house. After dinner we had a little celebration for Brooklyn. She got a little cupcake with a turkey on it. She had fun playing with the icing.

I wanted to update you on her stats now:
Weight: 20 pounds
Length: 29 inches.
Teeth: Two Bottom front in full view, three on the top poking through, and two more on the bottom poking through
Food: We have transitioned to cow's milk and are introducing real food even though she mainly still eats baby food.

November Update

It's hard to believe we celebrated Brooklyn's first birthday and second Thanksgiving!! She was born last year the day before Thanksgiving and this year her birthday landed on Thanksgiving Day. This year was the best Thanksgiving Day ever. We had both sets of grandparents over for dinner at our house so we could celebrate Thanksgiving and Brooklyn's birthday. Then the Saturday after Thanksgiving we had a party for close friends and family to help us celebrate Brooklyn's birthday. She started crawling the Monday before Thanksgiving so she was able to show off her crawling skills to everyone on the day of her party. She now has two bottom teeth and I can see the tip of five more teeth poking through. She is also starting to pull up. We have also had to put up a gate in our living room to keep her away from the Christmas tree and to keep her contained in one room since now she likes to crawl all over the house. We are looking forward to a wonderful and exciting Christmas at home this year.
