Happy Early Thanksgiving

Betsy is walking a lot these days. Today she has walked more than ever and when she's not walking she's standing up and dancing. Today she even climbed onto the sofa and sat next to me. I'm really going to have to keep my eye on her! Earlier she tried to climb into her big toy storage basket. She's becoming obsessed with Elmo and seems to find something Elmo related wherever we go. Today we went to the grocery store and within a minute of entering the store she said "La la, la la!" I looked up and saw a gigantic Elmo balloon. She now has an Elmo doll and about 5 Elmo books.

Last week we watched Lauren and Ryan while Kris went to work--it was tough watching a 4 month old, a 14 month old, and a 20 month old. Luckily Katherine and Evelyn stopped by and gave me a hand. B was intrigued by Baby Ryan and she kept wanting to touch his nose. She loves pointing to her nose and to other kids' noses. She's just starting to point to her eyes, her mouth, and her teeth. On Thursday we had playgroup at Evelyn's and the kids are really starting to play together instead of just next to each other. The sheetrock crew finished up on Friday and Peter and his Dad started priming yesterday. On Saturday we bought our paint and picked out our carpet. It's almost done!

On Friday night we went to a delicious dinner at Bee's. On Saturday I went with the sisters and Mary to Maspero's and shopping. I bought B the cutest black wool coat--it looks so adorable on her. Last night we went to dinner with Dad, Bee, Taddy, Dad's friend Larry M. and the sisters and their boys.

B has one top tooth and one bottom tooth--she's catching up with her pals!
