Hi Everyone!
I hope you are all ready for the Holidays. I know I'm looking forward to seeing everyone, not to mention opening some of those presents that have been hiding under the tree!
Meanwhile, I've been having a blast playing with Tazz - and Momma and Daddy finally managed to capture some of it on video. There are three segments of a play session below - watch in order, and enjoy :-) (And be sure to turn up your volume!!)

Santa Baby...
I told Daddy that I'm going to get even with him for posting this picture at some point in the future...but he and Momma insisted that it was a "Classic" first Santa picture.
I'm still not real sure who this Santa fellow is, but I hear he does some good stuff come the 25th, so I'll probably give him another chance. We'll see...

Thanksgiving at the Cape
Wow! Thanksgiving is a great holiday for an eating machine like me! My eyes almost popped out of my head when I saw the spread that Momma prepared for all of us
And, of course, in addition to all of the wonderful food, we had some great company for dinner. We got to share the holiday with Grandma, Nanny and Grampy, Nonno and Nonna, Great Aunt Amy, Great Aunt Pat and Uncle Mike, and Uncle Sean and Aunt Jo
After such a big meal, Tazz and I had to spend some time doing our exercises to work off those extra calories. Here she was showing me one of her favorite yoga positions - can you guess which one it is?
And the fun didn't end with Thanksgiving... On Friday we had some more visitors when Aunt Sarah, Uncle Steve, and Miss' Megan and Rachael showed up. I think Megan was quite impressed with my golf ball throwing skills, don't you? 
I hope everyone that made it to the Cape enjoyed their meal as much as I did, and I look forward to seeing many of you again in a few weeks for Christmas.

Over the River and Through the Woods...
..To Grandma's house we went.
Ok, this post is a little late, but I'm a busy guy. While Momma was down in DC the other week for work, Dad and I dropped in on Grandma for a couple of nights. We had a ton of fun
Grandma started things out by teaching me how to play the piano
Then, we spent most of the next day at the Children's Musuem in Philly. I had a great time racing cars....
Playing with the walls of mirrors...
Having a spot of tea....
And, trying to throw a scare into Daddy as he snuck around the other side of a tunnel.
All in all, it was a really fun time.

Weekend in D.C.
Since Momma has a training session for work down in DC this week, we took a family road trip down to Nanny and Grampy's house for the weekend. Unfortunately, they weren't there (cruising the Caribbean), but I'd like to say thanks for letting us use the house!
The drive down was mostly uneventful, though I would have preferred it to be about an hour shorter. Mostly though, it was fun and Tazz and I enjoyed each others company in the back of the truck. I like to think it was all about me, but something tells me she was eyeing up either my cookie or my ball...I'm not real sure which
While we were there we got out to see several of Momma and Daddy's friends, and I got to make a couple new ones of my own. Here I am with Aidan and Jacob Overman. Between the three of us we kept the adults on their toes
Then, on Sunday I got to meet Riley Demory. I was quite taken with her, and we enjoyed a little snack date while the parents talked.
The biggest news of the weekend though was that I took another BIG step in walking on my own (well... several steps really!). Sorry for the video being sideways, but thats how the camera was pointed and we couldn't figure out how to rotate it for the blog (even though we did for saving it on the computer.) I think you'll get the idea anyway - maybe just turn your head a little ;-)

7 Things...
Hey there everyone. So as I mentioned in my last posting, I was tagged by my friend Natalie to share 7 things you may not know about me... so, here we go...
1) During the week, I sneak in some Mama bonding time by helping her with her make-up in the morning before work. I'm quite adept at getting the brushes into the powder/blush
2) Counter tops are one of my favorite play areas (see pic below)
3) I've yet to encounter something I don't think is meant to be climbed. Walls, furniture, counters, trees, cars, ... you get the idea :-)
4) I enjoy quite a variety of foods. I found Daddy's lobster to be yummy, and please don't forget to give me my Corn Pops in the morning!
5) The only reason I'm not walking on my own yet is because I have so much fun leading Mama, Daddy, and Tazz around the house in a parade (isn't being an only child great?!)
6) I'm going through a bit of a shy stage right now, and any direct eye contact is sure to make me bury my head in the dirt / parent's legs.
7) I fully believe that all puppy dogs should be greeted by licking them

Happy Halloween (Belated..)
Happy belated Halloween everyone! I must say that I quite enjoyed my first official Halloween experience. We started things off by carving a pumpkin. First, I showed Mama what I thought it should look like so she could sketch it on the empty pumpkin...
Then, Daddy set to work carving the face out. I paid close attention to what he was doing and practiced with my stick while he worked so that I can be of even more help next year..
Finally, we had a finished product to put on display. I think it was a pretty good team effort, don't you? 
And of course, I got to dress up in my very first Halloween costume. For those of you that don't recognize it, it is from the movie Monster's Inc. We only made it to a few houses as I was quite tired, but I really enjoyed my first experience and look forward to many more to come!

Now that I am a year old, and much more busy, I'm not sure that I'll be posting with my normal frequency in the future.. but be sure to check in often as I will keep updating as new exciting adventures occur. I already know I owe my friend Natalie a '7 secrets you didn't know about me' post, so that will probably occur before too long.
Till then. Bye :-)
