Oh My Turkey!!

So I think I like Turkey Day. Mom and Dad said it was called Thanksgiving, but all I hear about are turkeys. We watched a parade on TV and then after my nap, we went to Great Uncle Pat's house. There were a whole bunch of Keeler's there. We played and laughed and I crawled around really fast. Anne is my favorite. She is so funny. Dinner was great! I got to sit up at the table with everyone. I ate bread, turkey, mashed potatoes and corn casserole. I also had a little bit of pie. I love when I get to see everyone and have good food.
The next day, my cousin Aidan came over to play. Mom says he is my first cousin, once removed. She thinks. Anyhow, Aidan's mom and dad were going to a hockey game and they didn't think Aidan was old enough to have fun at the game. He's only 3 months old, so he didn't do a whole lot. Mom put him on the floor on a blanket and she just laid there. It was funny. At one point he got kind of sad. So I gave him my toy, but it didn't seem to help much. Mom said he would play with me, but she was wrong. I'm not so sure I like babies. Then Mom gave him a bottle and it looked just like mine. She said it wasn't, but it looked like mine. So I cried until she got me one too. Then Aidan and I hung out and drank milk together. I'm pretty sure we bonded. He's pretty cool, but maybe he will be more fun next year.

What A Week!!

Mom and Dad started bring me to this new place last week. I think I like it, but I am still trying to decide. There are lots of little people like me and we all get to play together and hang out all day. My teacher, Carrie, is very nice. She thinks I'm cute. Her son, Gavin, loves to play with me. He's 5 and very fun! For now I am just watching everyone and sticking to the sidelines. I think I will jump in to all of the fun soon, but not yet.
Mom and Aunt Kristie brought me to this fun new place. It's has a giant mouse outside and they have pizza. I discovered that I love pizza. Inside there are kids everywhere. Their parents just let them run around and scream. I found that very entertaining. I got to ride in a little car and drive it all by myself. It didn't seem to go anywhere, but I enjoyed it all the same. I definitely want to go back to this place.
AND, I got to go with Mom and Dad and play outside. Dad had to meet someone for work out by Taylors Falls, so we made a day of it. It was so nice outside. Dad's work took a little longer than planned, so I got a bit crabby. Mom and Dad decided to let me sleep for a bit while they ate lunch. Then Dad threw me in a big backpack and off we went! We climbed around on rocks and saw a big river. We took lots of pictures, I think Mom is going to use one for Christmas cards.
I am pooped. All these exciting adventures make me want to take a nap.

It's not much of a tail, but I'm sort of attached to it.

Yesterday was Halloween!! I got to dress up like Eeyore and go on a walk outside in the dark!! Last year I was soooo small and I didn’t even know what Halloween was. Mom and Dad dressed me up anyways and I looked pretty cute.
This year I didn’t feel so well, but I was a trooper. I got to hang out with Aunt Kristie and Gamma all day. I wore a shirt with a pumpkin on it and orange socks. I was pretty festive. Later when Mom put my costume on, I was kind of mad because I didn’t want it on my head. But I let her do it and I looked cute. I wasn’t gonna let them know that I liked it though. Then Mom put me in the stroller and I was happy again.
Mom and Dad and I went walking and at first we didn’t see very many people, but then there were kids running around everywhere. They were going to the doors of other people’s houses and coming back with candy. We got to go to Tommy and Caitlin’s house. They weren’t there, but their Grandma gave me some M&M’s in a tube that I could shake and make noise with. Then we found Tommy and Caitlin too. We walked to different houses together. It was fun, even if Mom and Dad didn’t let me get more candy. I guess next year I can have some.
When I got back to the house, Gamma, Kristie, Grandma and Uncle Mark were all waiting to play with me. We played and played. I had some dinner. It was good times. Soon it was just Gamma and me. We went in my room and played together. She rocked me and read books to me and told me she would be in California with Grandpa Q for a while, but she would be back before I knew it. I tried to tell her I would miss her and couldn’t wait to see her again. She told me we could see each other all the time on the webcam. She gave me lots and lots and lots of kisses and put me to bed.
If you’re reading this Gamma, I love you VERY much!!! Thanks for the kisses.
