Porter's 1st Thanksgiving

We enjoyed a fabulous weekend with the Abodeely's up at the Whidbey house... Porter got to join us at the table for Thanksgiving dinner; enjoying his own squash and apples! He loved being part of the festivities!

Sunday Happenings...

Porter gave his Bronco's jersey a try in honor of Uncle Willy, but he couldn't keep the Donkey's from the same losing fate as the Hawks...

Aunt Meg came over for Sunday dinner and fed our little chubster some squash and peas-- mmmmm!

mmm...squash!

we had Porter's 6month apt today...clean bill of health! got the go ahead to introduce more foods, so tried squash tonite. what's your take, did he like it??

Playtime with Lola

After watching the Seahawks game with Dad, Lola and Porter engaged in some tug-of-war playtime together. Porter really tried to hang on, but Lola did not want to let him win--wanted to prove she is still holds court in this house!

Porter Ticklemania!

A Wine Weekend in Sonoma!

While Porter enjoyed his first weekend with his Siti and Giddi, and auntie Meg, We flew down to Sonoma for a long weekend with some a wild and crazy group of friends. Let's just say, Mom and Dad have not forgotten how to drink lots of wine and have fun! It was an absolute blast (for more pics link to the Kerwin's blog: http://russandang.blogspot.com/ ). We rented a house and a party bus for Saturday-- quite the adventures! and then finished it up with a halloween 5 course dinner at the house that each couple dressed up for and prepared their course accordingly!

Along with Dudley and Walker, we prepared the main course of sliders and sweet potato fries-- bringing the diner to Sonoma!

6 months! and first meal!

One day shy of Porter's 6 month bday, we gave him his first meal! Tried rice cereal to ensure he could swallow, and tomorrow, moving onto avocado, as he was a champ! ate it up with no problem! even wanted to take the spoon and try it himself~

Porter's weekend without Mom and Dad!

We ventured (without baby) down to Napa Valley for the weekend and left Porter in the hands of Siti and Giddi and aunti meg! They did lots of fun activities and bonding together--especially on Halloween. After a fun morning with his granparents, Meg took porter trick-or-treating in Madison Park for the afternoon. they all survived (thrived) the weekend and I think porter got the invite back for another weekend in the future without mom and dad! what a treat~
