Our Little Turkey's First Thanksgiving


We had Grandpa Kenny and Uncle Cody over for breakfast,




and spent the afternoon with Uncle Cody, Aunt Katie, Grandma Rosemary, and her side of the family!


We had some great food and West got lots of love and attention!!  Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving as well!

Now We're on a Roll...

One Saturday morning the three of us were hanging out in the living room and West just decided to roll over, out of nowhere!  He rolled from his back to his front 4 or 5 times and from his front to his back a couple of times.  The videos below are from that morning.  He's continued to do it just about every day since then, too.  


In addition to rolling over, it seemed like overnight West's neck/upper back strength improved drastically!  One day he was on his back one second and the next second I turned and saw that he had rolled over and propped himself up on his elbows!  He even held it long enough for me to grab the camera and snap a few pics.  So proud of him!


Weekend in Chillicothe

Early in November we made a trip up to Chillicothe.  We stopped by Great Grandma and Grandpa Alden's, visited Great Grandpa Travis for Veteran's Day and saw Aunt Deb and Uncle Larry, and went out on our first little date while Grandma Dee and Papa Johnie watched West.  On Saturday Brad was put to work chopping down trees and he and Johnie worked in the shop for a bit.  It was a wonderful weekend away!
