Thanksgiving

Late is better than never right? Well, I guess this is kind of a "never." My mom received a new camera for her birthday and "tried it out." Well, long story short, the pictures of my Thanksgiving are copied to a CD and we couldn't upload them to blogger. Anyway, I just wanted to say that I am so very thankful for my family, friends, health, home, and love that I experience every day. Thank you God!
For Thanksgiving we got up and watched a little bit of the parade on Television and then some football. I love watching football with my dad!! I am told my parents made some delicious sweet potatoes (I refuse to try any sort of sweet potato.) We had dinner at my grandma's house with my parents, grandma, and my Auntie Joanie came up with her new boyfriend. He is a real nice guy and I enjoyed playing with both of them. The following pictures are of my week. Mom got to teach a few times this week so I even got to see grandma a little more!! I am sure a lucky girl.
Oh, one more thing! I LOVE Christmas music and am really excited for Christmas! Birthdays are my favorite and I hear this is a VERY special one!!

Doing my friends' hair. Doesn't it look pretty?

Waiting to go outside

It has been really cold, but really pretty! Better than rain!
I haven't ridden my bike in a while but I am soo much taller now. It is getting easier and I zoomed around the loop two times!

November

Not much is new here in the Williams household.... I'm just growing up! Here is what I have been up to lately....

Last weekend we went swimming! I haven't spent that much time in the water and usually don't like to get in but this time my mom, dad, and brother went with me! It took me a while but I soon warmed up and was in kicking and splashing and having a blast!! Now I just have to talk my parents into signing me up for swim lessons!

Warming up

I like how the kiddie pool is like a beach, it gradually gets deeper and deeper

Happy!!

Mom got me these really neat crayons that I can use to color on the windows! You may have seen a sampling of my masterpieces on my brothers blog, but here are a few of me in action!
Getting out and enjoying the fresh fall air is something we try to do often. It is getting colder but that just means that we had to get out the hats, warm jackets, and even my neat stroller blanket. I think I am going to like it this year!

Destination...beach! The tide was high but that didn't stop me from my rock throwing!

Running so fast!

I got to run all the way up the trail back to the road!

Halloween Pictures

Here they are! I got to wear my ladybug costume two days in a row! On Friday my parents took me to a fun Toddler party at a local Preschool. There I got to paint another pumpkin, play a bean bag toss, bob for apples, see some neat costumes, and even play with some fun toys.

Then on Halloween we went to a local assisted living center and visited some nice men and women. They loved seeing us!

My Uncle Kevin, Aunt Julie, and cousin Maggie came over before we went to the party. Maggie was a ladybug too! Unfortunetly, I didn't feel like getting in any pictures with her...sad! I did however enjoy some time with my uncle.
My friends The Jones' threw an incredible Halloween Party! We had so much fun! They had games, a pinata, wonderful food, and best of all good company! After the party we headed out for some Trick-or-Treating in their neighborhood. I got the hang of it quite quickly and had a lot of fun. I can't wait until next year!
This cool house had lite up jack-o-lanterns in the tree!

More Fall Festivities

Wow, I have had a busy week and a ton of pictures to share with you! We finally got to Stoney Ridge Farm and pumpkin patch and it was a beautiful day...couldn't have been better! Grandma Bonnie and Grandpa Jim came over and we celebrated a very special birthday with Grandma. We had a few parties, and boy I love birthday cake and candles! I always enjoy their visits and that means I get to spend more time with my cousin Maggie too! We went to the park together and played in the pretty fall leaves. Just so you know...I do not like the camera these days. The snapshots you see are my parents tricking me to smile. I get frustrated with my mom who has the camera out way too frequently! Oh well, here is the load of pictures, I hope you have some time!

Pumpkins? Are you sure?

Crouching down to see the goat.

Last week I was an octopus, this week I am a scarecrow

A little help please?!Ok, you got me mom. A cute picture!

Collecting leaves

Maggie helped me fill it to the rim!

Mom tried to get some "staged" photos in the fall leaves at Boulevard Park. We tried!

Are we done yet? Maggie and I really want to swing!
