She prefers to eat with utensils now.
And it isn't because it's a cleaner way to eat...

It's definitely more grown up and sophisticated.


And judging by the low key spooning on the video, it's just plain fun too!


She's growing up... quickly!


Where to start??
Let me tell you what we've been doing.

I played with my babies beneath the super soft pillows...
We went to the Renaissance Festival (actually, that was late October... but who's REALLY counting?). It was my first time... Mama's too. Luckily, Daddy knew where to take us and what to show us!

Look at that big church outside... Mama said if she was gonna marry Daddy all over again that she would do it in that church if there weren't so many crazy people around...

Mama kept talking about how she wanted a turkey leg so Daddy bought one for her and she was happy...

We watched the jousting - I tried to show the big horses my little horse and make horsey sounds, but they were too busy running and stuff to notice...

We played... a lot.

I gave Day-see (Daisy) some of my favorite amals (animals)... the puppuh (puppy) and the pilapila (caterpiller).

I got some new footie PJ's (my favorite!!)...

I laughed a lot and ran a lot at the park.

Bebella (Bella) is my BFF.
I followed her around the park.
I love her.

Lots of people went to run in the Turkey Trot.
Nah, not me... I mean, maybe someday... but for now, I'm just getting my feet under me.

Pampa (Grandpa) had a birthday! Mama says he's old... but I say he's wise.
That's right Pampa, I got your back.

We had Thanksgiving at Pampa and LeeLee's house this year - the whole family was together - Uncle Joshy and Aunt Sophia, Aunt JuJu and Uncle JaJa, and Uncle John even came home from Lubbock.

After trying to eat those fake grapes I took a THREE hour nap and mama and daddy got a chance to eat and be thankful for each other.

I'd say it was a good month.
Out of the 16 I've seen, it was one of the best.

And by the looks of things this next one's going to be even better!
