The forgotten post

Several weeks ago I had wanted to post all about our November....but life happened and I never finished uploading the pictures.   I usually only get on the computer after baby is down for the night, dinner is cooked and eaten, and all my other "extra" chores or prep for the next is done. 
 
We actually had a pretty low key Thanksgiving.  It was just the three of us but I was determined to make a feast and have plenty of leftovers.  We started off the morning staying in our jammies and watching the Macy's Day Parade and playing with toys.  Pretty much a perfect morning right?!?!
I spent most of the rest of the morning cooking....and then we sat down and piled up our plates with yummy food. 
The weeks before Turkey day were filled with lots of fall fun.  H was still getting gobs of love from her sweet teachers on T and Th.  Check out this precious Thanksgiving outfit I bought while I was still pregnant with her...I never could have imagined how sweet our girl would actually look wearing it!  
The weather changed and it felt wonderful...  I love Fall weather and clothing.   I swear we only got sweet pea to wear most of her outfits once because she's growing so fast!
We also went to Mommy and Me Music class...but we decided to stop going for a little while since it was scheduled right in the middle of nap time....and believe me...class was not fun when little missy wasn't well rested!!
 We had lots of playtime out on the front lawn...Hattie loves to sit on a blanket and watch the leaves on the trees move in the wind and fall.  I was tickling her nose with this leaf and she was laughing so loud.  It was the most beautiful noise!
 She will stare at the trees when the wind blows and study them....  too cute!   And,   hello eyebrows!!!
 We also went on a few playdates...
 and November was the first month that she was standing up playing with her toys unassisted.
 Hatilynn's friend, Emma, came over to play.  I have a feeling these two will have lots of fun in the future!
 Sweetie pie turned 8 months old in November.....     
 She loves to drink out of straws while we are out at restaurants.
 I caught the most precious moment....daddy giving baby a pedicure!   But seriously,  those daggers can slice deep!!!  I love that he was distracting her with the remote!
 We also got a new face from little one...   she has started scrunching her nose when she smiles big!   
 We call this look "chin up"!  
We have had so much to be thankful for this year.  We have each other and the hand of our Lord to guide us through the next year as a family.  So thankful for the laughs and warmth T and H give our home and to my life...nothing quite like it!
