Gobble Gobble

We had a nice Thanksgiving with Grammy & Ernie, a 16 lb. turkey, and all the trimmings. Holden had a great time and loved having Grammy & Ernie spend the night. The next day he went on his first big outting without us to Ernie's family in Maryland for their Thanksgiving. Grammy said he was on his best behavior and chowed down on another big meal. Rob and I took advantage of the day off and hit the movies.

At 14 months, Holden is walking while holding one hand, cruising all around the furniture, and standing on his own for several seconds at a time. We have bets as to when he'll take off on his own. I'd love for him to do it by Christmas for our big trip to SC, but I have a feeling he'll wait until after we're home. He continues his love affair with Raven and says "doggie" while scooting after her. His other big word is "light" and he loves to turn the switches on and off. He also starts saying "light" as soon as I put the car in park because he knows the lights are going to turn on when I open the car door. He loves looking at the stars and moon at night and watching the airplanes fly by. He's growing so fast!

Ready to eat!

Grammy always gets a smile.

Brave Grammy on our dirty kitchen floor for some playtime.

Watching "Charlie the Brown" in his rocker. He figured out how to rock himself.

Bye, Mom! I'm off to Maryland for my second Thanksgiving.

Out for a walk in the neighborhood.

See ya later!
