Thanksgiving and the New House!

Here is Kelsey's first snow- we got home from taking pictures on Sunday and it was snowing! We are on the porch of the new house. We moved in right before Thanksgiving.

Kelsey started eating cereal this week- you can't really see it in the pictures, but she is covered in it- eating must be hard work- she is wringing her hands and finally fell asleep. And yes, this is a Christmas outfit. We have started to wear all the Christmas gear so that it is used before Christmas when she will undoubtedly get lots more gifts!

Kelsey got bundled up Saturday night and went to the Holiday Stroll downtown. Santa was there- but she didn't notice him this year.

Uncle Sam- who came to visit for Thanksgiving, holding Kelsey.

This is the "casual" Thanksgiving outfit

and here is the pretty dressy one!

Thanksgiving was a bit overwhelming for Kelsey with all the people at Grandma's but she still had fun.

Here is Kelsey with Uncle Sam on Thanksgiving.

Kelsey is wide awake in the morning, especially since we lived at the new house a week without blinds (they're in now).

BRRRR!!!!

This Friday we woke up and it was 12 degrees! Really, 12 degrees and not even Thanksgiving yet, I can't believe how cold it is here! Thank goodness that Kelsey has lots of hats! Here is the "lollipop hat".

With Grandma here with the blue hat, and can you believe that they have little sherpa looking boots for them too? This pair is 3-6 months and barely fits- I think she has big feet.

Here we are with the gingerbread hat, and below with Ma. A true sign of winter- Ma is flying south for the rest of the winter tomorrow- we'll miss her!

Here Kelsey is with Daddy, and with Daddy, Mom and Auntie Moe who came out to visit. Kelsey likes going out to dinner :)

Just some random shots of the blue-eyed girl.

Playing in her exersaucer- she started drooling a lot this week, so she wears a bib more often now so that she is not soaked.

A nap in the crib at the new house while mom and dad unpack this weekend. All the inspections are done, so we'll be living there soon! A shot below with Grandpa before bed in the fleece jammies.

New Pictures

Kelsey loves the front carrier- this way she can see what is going on while we are walking.

Happy Halloween!

Hers's the back of the Halloween costume, can you guess what it is?
She was a giraffe!

We trick or treated with Aunt Moe,

Nana (though Kelsey was asleep there),

The grandparents,

Cousin Tim, (got sick of the costume)

Cousin Molly (forced it back on)
Aunt Jane,

Then home again with mom and dad,

and finally relaxing and ready for bed!

3 Months old

Here is Kelsey at 3 months old! (we'll try to get an awake picture today at some point :)

She started to wear her Halloween outfits on Sunday, and Quinsi was very interested in saying hello to her.
One new favorite activity- sitting in the pod and watching TV!

It's already cold enough here that we added the fleece liner to the car seat- she seems to like it just the same!

Another favorite new thing is to stand (with some help of course)

Here Kelsey is thinking about crawling, though she can't get the arms and legs in synch yet.

Here is Kelsey and Jamie, watching UGA while we were in Orlando.

Just awake from a nap in the carseat.

The real favorite new thing- thumbsucking! It takes a while for her find the thumb each time, but since she started she is also sleeping through the night (and so are mom and dad).

Another picture with cousin Gabby! Gabby was 7 pounds 10 ounces, but she looks like a munchkin next to Kelsey.

Trip to meet cousin Gabby!

Here is cousin Gabby! Kelsey & I flew to Orlando to meet her!










Here is Kelsey and cousin Gabby watching the Red Sox game. The plane flight was good- she slept most of the way down to Orlando.

Uncle Alex and Kelsey.
Uncle Alex and both girls!
