Baby's First Thanksgiving

My favorite holiday! There was much food to be eaten, fellowship to be enjoyed, and football to be watched. We celebrated ours at Thistle Ranch this year.

O had the requisite turkey, cranberry sauce, and stuffing. He really liked the stuffing (who doesn't?). I didn't get a picture of the eats, but they were as good as it gets! Of course he had plenty of formula, too.

I think we have a little firebug on our hands. He and Grandad will get along just fine! He was absolutely mesmerized by the fire.

Coaxing everyone to escort him around. (Tune in to a future post for footage of him walking!!!)

Playing with his cousins, Hannah and Katie.

Enjoying the crisp fall weather in the adorable hat our friend Juan got for him in Peru.

Petting Franklin, who was very patient and accommodating.

His lovey? Fringe! He really entertained us with his instant thumb-sucking whenever he encountered fringe. Luckily, it doesn't seem to be specific to one type of fringe. Tassels, blankets, pillows, and mama's hair all seem to do the trick. This was on the ride home.
