Lucy's Thanksgiving style

On Thanksgiving Day, she got dressed up and we went to her Great Granny Beiting's house...GranJan and I found this sweet little dress at Babies R Us on clearance back when I was on maternity leave! Grandma Kathy had given her the tights and they went perfectly with the dress and the sweet little shoes Uncle Jason and I found at H&M...she got the shoes off even faster than she got the hat off and proceeded to taste-test each one of them! She wasn't a huge fan of the hat, as you can see...

She's tried a variety of baby food, both store-bought and home-pureed, but on Thanksgiving she tried baby food meat for the first time...turkey in gravy, of course! I've heard babies typically don't like pureed meat, but Lucy girl seemed to enjoy it! She had fun at the big table with everyone looking around, eating puffs and turkey (and a taste of mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce) and banging on her tray!

On the Saturday after Thanksgiving, we went to Grandma Terry's...Lucy wore the shirt mommy's boss Denese bought her...she had fun playing on the floor with her godmother and meeting Aunt Amy's doggy, Lola! She had some more pureed turkey along with mashed potatoes and cranberry sauce.






Look at the turkey butt!




On the Sunday after Thanksgiving, she went to GranJan and Grandpa's house to hang out with the Stallkamps...she was a hit! She played on the floor with fun toys and let lots of people hold her and walk around with her. When Auntie Em arrived, she teased her a bit - pouted and wouldn't go to her...but finally did and fell asleep in her comfy arms!


She wore a dress and turtleneck we found at Gymboree...on clearance!...several months ago...and those tights from Grandma Kathy came in handy again!


Let's hope Lucy continues loving giraffes because there's plenty more giraffe attire waiting for her!




I think Lucy enjoyed being with mom and dad extra over the long weekend and I know we certainly did! It was hard to leave her Monday morning!


It seems as though Lucy is getting more teeth...she's been showing off those two bottom ones more often and she's been drooling even more than usual and has been extremely fussy and restless at night...stay tuned for more chompers news!!
