Last Month Happenings

Last month was quite busy... so I'm going to update you briefly (with lots of pics) on the highlights from November.

We started off the month with a trip home to Mississippi to welcome Carter Wesley Lewis into the world! Much to my sister's disappointment, but to our delight, he waited to make his appearance until we got to the hospital late that evening (November 2). What a sweet time it was to be there for his birth, and we definitely can't wait to get back for Christmas and get to love on him some more.

On our trip there we also got in some fun time with Aunt Susan
and of course some play time with Marmie
a proud Papa and his 2 grandsons

November was a big month for Madeline. We've casually been doing what you could consider "preschool" with her for a while now, but she officially started a more "formal" preschool last month by beginning a phonics curriculum. She LOVES doing school and its been a lot of fun being her teacher!
In November our little one turned 6 months old! Half way to her first birthday, can you believe it? She experienced her first time swinging and loved it!
She's rolling all over the place, can sit up on her own for moments at a time, and is starting to scoot up on her knees trying to crawl. She remains such a content happy little girl and we love her so much!
She also began solids last month and loves all the veggies we have tried so far (peas, carrots, sweet potatoes). Like my other 2 it looks like I've got a good eater on my hands. At her 6 month check up Gloria weighed in at 16lbs. 10.5 oz (50-75%) and is 27 in (90%) tall! We are thrilled to have a healthy growing baby girl.
We hosted Thanksgiving at our house with a grand total of 17 of our friends and family! It was such a fun holiday :)
