Thanksgiving and more

Wow, can you believe tomorrow is Dec. 1st? Where has the year gone? We are thoroughly enjoying our first holiday season with Natalie and we can't wait to take her to look at lights and sit on Santa's lap. Hopefully she won't be asking for anything too expensive this year!
Our first Thanksgiving was a lot of fun. Natalie was the hit of the afternoon at my cousin's house. My cousin's friend's daughter Madison especially loved Natalie and was always nearby to give her a hug or play with her. She was even designated an official cousin! We'll be calling you to babysit someday, Madison! Anyway, Natalie was a very good girl and she even let us eat our Thanksgiving dinner. Next year we expect she'll be eating turkey and stuffing with the rest of us.
We spent Thanksgiving night and the next night with Grandma and Grandpa. We went down to Port Canaveral to watch the cruise ships depart (wishing we were on board, ha ha) and then we drove over to Johnathan's Pub so we could get some photos of Johnathan out front. Alas, it was WAY too smoky to stay inside for more than 30 seconds.
Other than that, Natalie continues to bring us lots of laughter and happiness. She is now snatching the spoon from our hands when we feed her veggies and smearing her food all over her face. She loves playing with cups and anything that makes a crinkling noise. She loves water and splashing in the tub. In short, she's just too adorable for words, but we'll let you look at the pictures and you can see that for yourself. Lately the pictures have not been coming out in the correct order but you should be able to figure out what's going on. Happy Holidays!
