UW vs. Alabama today. And Lola made sure Meryl wasn't without a UW get-up in a larger size for the game. Go Huskies!  

We visited the doctor today for Meryl's four month check-up. All is looking good! She weighed in at 13 lbs. 5.4 oz. and is now 25 inches tall. (Back in mid-October, she weighed 10.4 lbs. and was 21.75 inches tall.) She also got a few vaccines as well, and Wonder Woman bandaids to boot.

Pajamas for the plane! Ready to sleeeeep. Ha! 

Lorraine came over tonight for dinner and a movie. We both LOVE cheesy holiday movies (mostly on the Hallmark channel), and she was recently recommended 'Christmas in Connecticut,' directed by none other than Arnold Schwarzenegger. So we're making a night of it, and Frank made tamale pie for the first time (we're trying to cook creatively with the 1/4 cow we bought this fall!). 

This month, we're celebrating in Seattle:) 

Just like the NFL Red Zone, but better! Here from the Meryl Cute Zone, Meryl through the months!  

Thankfully, we were able to borrow this snow suit from Meryl's friend, Silas. Now we're Alaska ready for Christmas, or Seattle winter-walk ready otherwise. 

Hangin' out.  

Frank and I are off to a ribeye steak potluck with friends tonight. Lucky for Meryl and Lummi, Lola and Tito Edward are here. And Meryl has lots to tell them. 

Lola made Meryl a United States themed mat for her to play on the floor. I loved playing 'Where in the World is Carmen San Diego' as a kid, so here's Meryl's initial leg-up.
