Doing a quick update on Nolan for this post since I am again behind on editing. I’m estimating another 10 days of photography focus before the Christmas fun can officially kick in. Can’t wait!!

*Celebrated his first Thanksgiving (with family) and Black Friday (went to Best Buy + Target on Friday afternoon).
*Had mashed potatoes at Thanksgiving dinner.
*Ate prunes and green beans in the last week. Took ’em a lot better than peas.
*Screams at the top of his lungs all the time for mostly no reason; so loud that it really, really hurts my ears.
*Finally has his own designated play area set-up.

“Old McNoly had a farm, E-I-E-I-O!”
We finally organized things to make room for Nolan’s play corner. This is the Prince Lionheart Farm Playmat. It’s pretty big at 58″ x 65″ and dual sided (the other being a city roadway). The mat is pretty thin so underneath it are foam puzzle pieces to help with padding. Those pieces interlock with the 4′ x 4′ wall ones to keep things nice and bright to stimulate our little guy’s eye sight. I specifically chose this foam set since they are thicker than most out there on the market.

Bubble fun! Don’t worry, these are non-toxic and perfectly safe for baby. Picked it up from Gymboree.
Not only does he LOVE it, but it also helps stimulate hand-eye coordination.

“Ugh, mommy, there’s something in my hair!!” Yep, those bubbles are stuck to his fine hair, not just floating above his head.

Laughs everytime the bubble pops.

Nolan spent his first Thanksgiving meal at his great grandparent’s home (my paternal grandparents) where a lot of my cousins congregated to celebrate with a potluck.
