It is Thanksgiving week and we are most grateful for the beautiful baby in our lives. You are just a delight to have in our lives. We can't imagine what our lives were like before you came into them. You are so cute now rolling everywhere! You love to play on the ground still and when I leave you in the middle of the floor you can roll to both corners of the room. You are so strong and determined. You are still a very very happy baby, always cooing and talking and smiling.

You usually wake up about 7 each morning and take a nap about 9 and about 1. Then you go to sleep for the night about 6:30. You still wake up sometimes at night, but I don't mind because I miss you and want to hold, kiss, and feed you.

We go out to alot of places together. You love outside and when we walk. You think the trees are so pretty. We go to lunch with Mimi Beck all the time and you are just the best baby. You are reacing for everything now including your favorite anything in a glass or glass bottle. We took you to Fitz's Restraunt the other day and you tasted a little icecream. You didn't know what to do with it. But, I'm sure you will figure it out soon enough.

Mommy is working on your needlepoint stocking for Christmas. It is very cute and I think you will love it. Daddy is done studying and is very excited about his new job. One of the main reasons he is taking this new job is so that he can be his own boss and be able to be at all of your special events when you get older. He is such a wonderful Daddy.

You also LOVE your bouncy seat that we put up over the doorway. You can jump so well and it makes you so happy. You laugh the whole time. Your little laugh is so adorable. Daddy makes you laugh with his Peek-A-Boos. We just look at eachother and can't stop smiling because your giggles are the cutest things ever.

Well I better jump in the shower. YOu are taking a nap and this is the only time I can shower. Love you my everything!

Almost 6 months old!!!

Hi my little baby beeboo! You are closing in on 6 months soon and my has it gone by really fast. You are doing more and more each day, as always. I'm thinking that with nothing hold your little tush back you will likely be crawling in no time.

What's really cool about your age is that you are going to have so many friends come school time. A lot of your mommy and daddy's friends in the parish are having babies that are really close in age to you. We always wonder which ones will end up being your good friends.

One of your favorite new things is your bouncy chair. It hangs from the doorframe and you just sit your little tooshy in there and bounce like crazy. You absolutely love it. You get really excited twisting, turning, bouncing, and making so many loud sounds with your mouth. Daddy loves to say, "Beeboo go...........go...........go............go. You love it and we have a great time watching you.

In new news, your Aunt Cristy and Uncle Colan got engaged last night in New York City (that's where they live). We are really happy and excited for them. The plan looks to be a wedding around September 2011. We're hoping that you can be walking by then and be their flower girl (you'll be 15 months old then). That would be adorable and Daddy can already see you doing your little stumble walk down the aisle. We're also hoping that by then Mommy will be pregnant with your first brother or sister.

This week is Thanksgiving (your first major holiday really......other than the 4th of July). Everyone is excited to see you.

Daddy plans to give his notice to Moneta Group as he is leaving for a different opportunity. Daddy will now be starting his own practice as Fidelis FP. Speaking of Daddy's work, he is finally done with his major CFP test. It was this weekend for 10 hours. It took up a ton of study time over the past couple of months. Daddy thinks and hopes that he passed. Now, he can spend that time with you and Mommy.

That's all for now. Daddy is loving you more and more each day. He can't wait until you can say the word, "Dah-dah".

I love you,
Your lucky daddy
