My parents drove in Wednesday around 3pm and are staying until Sunday. They were able to enjoy one evening on the patio before a COLD front came in. We'll have our first frost tonight, the low is in the upper 20's! It is supposedly snowing at their house though so I'm sure they are glad to be here. It'll be in the upper 50's tomorrow. Haven't decided if we are shopping or not yet.... My want/need list is growing..... hehe
Today we made turkey in the oven for the first time(we've always fried). It turned out really amazing. I'm glad I watched food network for 2 weeks to learn tips. Also made green bean casserole, bread dressing, gravy, cranberries, sweet potato casserole, king's hawaiian rolls and deviled eggs. Oh and dessert was pistachio-chocolate pudding 4 layer dessert. (the other 2 layers are cool whip and cream cheese/powdered sugar on a graham cracker crust.)
My mom got a video of Kellis laughing. **it wont upload.... still trying** Kellis was a happy boy after his bath and in his jammies for bed. I didn't know my mom was videoing, I thought she was getting him to smile for pictures and wasn't snapping any. It took him a bit to warm up to new people being around him but he's finally ok with her holding and playing with him for long periods of time.

Oh and yea haven't updated this in a long time, sorry bout that. I post new pics on fb so often I dont ever sit down to write a new blog. Umm.... some quick updates, the tooth is not happening. No idea what's going on but it is no closer to popping through and some days I dont even feel the bump anymore. I hope he doesn't have screwed up teeth.
He is not terribly fond of sitting up (prefers standing, not on his own but me holding him like in the video) but we are working on it and he is getting stronger. His hands go for anything that passes in front of his face. Anything. My hair, face, drink, toys, etc etc etc. And once his hands touch it, they go directly into his mouth. He's not great at holding something and chewing on it but he tries.
He's still sleeping really well. The last 3 days I haven't had to go back in his room after I put him down. He just passes out. This is awesome because there have been times I have gone back in up to 10 times to put his paci back in and rub his belly. I guess he's just so tired lately or maybe he's gotten used to our routine and knows I will NOT take him out if he fusses so he just gives up.
He loves Raider. Its so cute. He watches him and laughs and reaches for him. If only Raider was gentle and sweet and didnt have 3" fingernails. I am working on getting Raider to lay still so Kellis can pet him at least once a day. Problem is when Raider gets attention he wants to play and be crazy so its kind of a circus.
Ok so that wasn't quick but hopefully you are satisfied. hehe
5 months old on Monday! Insane how fast it has gone. I look at his pics from 2-3 months ago and dont even remember him being that small.
