(*This post contains a lot of pictures/videos*)
It's November, it's cold, and holidays are just around the corner :]
One of the mommy friends I made at the Halloween costume party, the talented Lori Sapio, took some amazing shots that I used to make our holiday card.
I've wanted to make holiday cards since I got married, which according to the husband is "kind of stupid when you don't have kids". Now that we have Derrick, I can, and I did. They are on their way and will soon be posted to family and friends. YAY :]
Here are the photos.
I think Derrick is the most photogenic of our family…
Lori also hosted another play date for the upcoming Thanksgiving. It was a photoshoot/potluck/playdate at Lori's studio at Revival Pinups
We met a Korean baby boy named Isaac at the playdate!
It was Derrick's first time meeting a Korean boy his age :]
And Lori shot some awesome photos of Derrick and also a mommy and me picture.
I had a chance to get makeup done by one of Lori's makeup artists, and we had fun with the lip color :]
Derrick has been such a fun boy to be around these days.
Derrick also cut his first tooth recently.
He has also taken a liking to talking with his stuffed animal dolls.
This time he was talking with his monkey.
And trying to suction monkey's nose with his aspirator, and talking to him that he's going to do it.
Derrick's eyelashes are super long.
Here is a baby free pic of mommy :D
And this past Sunday, the holiday festivities kicked off with some awesome thanksgiving dinner at church during lunch time :D
And we put our tree up today :]
Daddy did the hard part, while Derrick looked on and Mommy took pictures.
And the lights worked once we plugged it in; Derrick loved the lights!
Mommy did the fun part; decorating the tree.
Derrick just watched this year, but by next year I'm sure he can help decorate too!
There will be more festivities coming soon.
Until the next post, keep us in your prayers!
