more pictures from my 1st Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!

my first solid food: sweet potatoes

Mom was so excited to feed me solids that she couldn't wait until Thanksgiving. She made me sweet potatoes from scratch (organic, of course). I think I like them but I'm not sure yet. Dad got to do the honors and give my first bites.

it's cold in Portland!

My parents put me in this ridiculous outfit because they thought I would be too cold on our evening walk. They couldn't help but take some pictures (I guess they'll want to show them to my future girlfriends someday!)...

I'm 5 months old (and sitting on my own!)

Jumping Jake

I love the Johnny Jump-Up!

Chillin' in my new hat

My Nana made me a new hat that covers my ears from the cold fall weather in Portland. I've been in an extra happy mood lately (even though I'm cutting my first tooth) so mom took advantage with a little photo shoot.

My first Halloween

On my first Halloween I dressed up as a monkey and got to celebrate this fun holiday with my cousins Dawson & Harper. They live in California. Trick or treating is so much fun when it's warm outside! Here are some pictures of our trip...

I love candy (just kidding, haven't tried it yet!)

I'm 4 months old!

my buddies & I dressed up for Halloween

I'm the monkey falling asleep on the far left. Just had my 4-month shots!

my visit to the pumpkin patch

Mom & Dad took me to the pumpkin patch which is their favorite thing to do in the fall. The pumpkins were bigger than me but I had my overalls on so I didn't mind! I even got to go on the pumpkin scale.

my new favorite hat!

I have learned how to suck my thumb

my trip to Portland zoo

I went to the Portland zoo with mom and we got to see the baby elephant! Mom says we will be getting an annual pass when I'm old enough to really appreciate it. :) I loved looking at the fish tanks & turtles. What can I say?! I'm a water guy.

bedtime = my party time!

my 3 month photo shoot with Mr. Bear

My mom went a little crazy with this one because I wouldn't give her any smiles!

I'm 3 months old!

I turned 3 months old on Sunday and I celebrated by taking a trip to Hood River with my mom & dad for the Pear Festival. My mom bought tons of apples & pears so she can make me some food when I'm ready to eat solids. I can't wait for that! I had fun cruisin' in my stroller around the farms (we spent way too much time in the car, though and I was tired of that!). Here are some pictures from our day...

Just chillin' in my BOB...I learned how to find my hands

The beautiful orchards
