Brrrr!

Well, it appears that things are a-changing! It's been getting colder
and colder, and I don't think I like it!
First the leaves all fell off the tree and Mommy made me
play in them. This is my first reaction to the leaves!
I hated how noisy they were when mommy raked them or when Sidney
ran by and made them crunch!
Eventually I decided they weren't too bad, but I don't think I'd like
to do that again any time soon!

Next, this white stuff Mommy calls "snow" came down out of the
sky and made Sidney come inside all wet and cold! Mommy let me
touch it but I think that was enough for me! I'll just
stick to my cozy bed and my cozy blanket
for now, thank you very much!

I look happy to see the snow in this picture, but you should see me when
I have to put on my hat, coat and mittens!
That's NOT a pretty sight!

Now, some happy times! I got to celebrate my first Thanksgiving!
I went to Cedar Rapids with my Mommy and Daddy and met
lots and lots and LOTS of relatives!
This is me with my second cousin Kylie Jo.

Here's me with all of my Great-Grandma and Grandpa Knutson's
great-grandkids! There's Mya, Mason, Me, Lewis, and Rachel!
Man, I wish I was big enough to play Leggos with them!

In a week full of traveling, we drove all the way to northern Iowa
to watch my cousin Dalton wrestle! This is me and Aunt Tara
cheering him on! GO DALTON!

Here's Dalton wrestling! He got better each match and even
pinned someone the last match! He showed me his medal but
wouldn't let me give it the "drooly inspection!"

This is my Thanksgiving outfit from Grandma Thorson. I got to eat
my green beans and applesauce for dinner. I tried some mashed
potatoes but they just made me gag - Happy Thanksgiving, huh?

Finally, here is me with my cousins, Dalton and Makenzie. They sure gave
me a lot of attention and kept me laughing the whole day. I think Makenzie
would be a GREAT babysitter if she didn't live 3 hours away! Oh well!

Well, I hope you all had a Happy Thanksgiving! I'll update you more
when the next big event rolls around!
Peace out!

6 Months!

Today I am 6 months old! Can you believe it?

We went to get some picture taken to celebrate and here they are.
The nice people at Portrait Innovations gave Mommy and Daddy
a CD so we could load the pictures on the computer!
Pretty cool!

This one is me stretching between takes!
I was getting kind of tired but I didn't even cry once!

I'm so big sitting up! Right after this picture I tipped over and
Mommy dove for me like a pro-volleyball player! My head didn't even
touch the ground!
Check out this handsome mug!
In this one I was going for a "dramatic" or "dreamy" look.
This last one is called "Senior Picture Pose."
I just love getting attention from pretty photographers -
Can you tell?
Hope you all enjoy! There were a total of 60 pictures on the CD
so Mommy and I just picked a few of our favorites.
Have a Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Peace and Love,
Lane
