Happy Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was a real good time. My parents decided about 30 mintes before the big dinner that I should dress up. It's a good thing that Dad picked up a paper bag from Kroger that morning. Although it was kind of scratchy fitting it over my head, once it was on it was delightfully tasty to munch on. It's hard to appreciate in this picture how slobbery my paper bag is. Pictured next to me is my pilgrim playmate, Charlotte.


I have been practicing lifting my head. Most baby books say that a baby should lift his head off the ground while laying on his belly by about 3-4 months. My parents are starting to worry about me because I'm almost 4 months old and have showed no interest in lifting my head. They've decided that they need to give me "tummy time" every day to strengthen my neck muscles. But I just squirm and fuss (as you can see in the video) until the parents give up and turn me over to my back.

Perhaps part of the problem of not being able to turn over is that my body is just too heavy. I love to eat. And it shows. I think this picture of me with my friend Jeffrey shows how mammoth I've become. Granted, he is a few months younger than I am, but I think you can appreciate my ginormousness.
