Happy Thanksgiving!!

This momma is thankful for her lil' turkey!

Thank you Lord for this beautiful baby boy who has brought such joy to our family. He is a true blessing and miracle. May you bless his life and protect him. Guide us as you have given us such a great responsibility to raise this perfect gift. Thank you so much for our family, our health, and for the sacrifice that you made for us.

He's loving his teething feeder! We've been thinking that for Thanksgiving dinner, we'd put a little bit of turkey in it for him. I'm sure he would enjoy it! We'll take pictures of him eating his first Thanksgiving dinner at Grandma's...and just for fun, we bought him some baby food jars of Sweet Potatoes and Turkey Dinner--MMmmmm!

Just Too Sweet

This face is just too sweet! He's my little sugarbooger!

At 7 1/2 months, Preston is weighing 18 lbs. 15 oz. He's wearing his 9 month clothes pretty well. I'm afraid he's growing too fast! I didn't plan on him being in 12 month clothes till late winter. Maybe he'll slow down....maybe!

7 Months Old

Now that Preston is 7 months, he's cruising the floor and getting into everything. He loves to crawl over to the window or back door and look outside at the dogs and crawl over to the entertainment center and pull out the CDs and DVDs. When he's mad or upset he'll crawl over to me and pull himself up on my leg and just cry to be held. He's going to be dramatic like his Momma, I'm afraid. Also, he's been saying, "Mamamama.." This is the first time we've heard him say any "M" sound so I don't know if he's saying it on purpose or not, but he usualy says it when he's in his crib crying.
We are getting closer and closer to eating real food. On Monday, he started drinking a little water out of a sippy cup and ate/gummed a few 'baby' rice puffs.
