A November to Remember

Hey Little Buddy!! 

This has been a wonderful November!  The weather is still trying to decide if it wants to turn cold or stay warm.  I always prefer the cold.  I love bundling up in coats and scarves.  And YOU are the cutest little bundled up Buddy I have ever seen! 
This picture is from last Saturday.  You, your Daddy and I went to a Christmas tree farm to pick out our Christmas tree for this year.  It was a lot of fun and we want to make it a tradition from now on.  You wandered from tree to tree playing peek-a-boo with Daddy!  The rest of the time you walked hand in hand with us.  It was a wonderful memory we got to make with you. 

Last week we celebrated Thanksgiving!  We woke up and ate breakfast while watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade.  We took it easy most of the morning while I finished cooking my dishes for our family Thanksgiving lunch.  We went to your Aunt Lindy and Uncle Dan's house to meet the family and eat.  Then you snuggled me and Daddy on the couch while we watched football all afternoon.  You weren't feeling very well after lunch.  I didn't mind all the cuddling of course! 

We went out early in the morning on "Black Friday" to pick up your Christmas present.  The funny part about that was YOU were the one awake and ready to go out! So we got out really early and shopped and then we came home to take a nap.  We woke up around noon and went to Grandma Carolyn's for a Thanksgiving lunch with some of the family.  You spent most of the afternoon playing with your cousins Cassie, Brianna and Stephanie.  After that we went to Gran's house in Moore to meet with the rest of the family on my side for a dinner get together.  It was a pretty full weekend!  But the best part of it for you was having your Daddy home from work for FOUR days!  He is your bestest Buddy!  And you felt spoiled getting to have him home with you everyday of the holiday break.  He even taught you how to count to FIVE!  You are only 21 months old and can count to five.  That is so so impressive!  You are such an exceptional child.

Well, we have decorated the Christmas tree and started listening to Christmas music.  The Christmas season has started and I am so excited to spend our second Christmas together with you!! 

We love you so much, Bentley!
