The holidays are fast approaching...

 Halloween has come and gone - and it was quite a fun one this year, what with Lennon and me dressing up as leopards and trick-or-treating with NO success - and Thanksgiving is just around the corner.  Literally, we are celebrating Thanksgiving this Saturday since Sabrina and my dad are going to be out of town on the actual holiday.  So on Saturday we are spending the day at my grandparents house; filling up on turkey, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce, stuffing, rolls, green beans, and countless pies [well maybe only a couple, but one can dream right?]  On the actual holiday of Thanksgiving, we - grandpa, grandma, mom, Lennon and I - are going to spend the morning making baked goods.  I still have yet to choose something to pick to bake - I'm torn between this, this or this.

And not soon after Thanksgiving is over, it's going to be Christmas; Lennon's second Christmas, but her first one being an active participant and not a "pet rock" like she was last year [though I do miss the days of her sleeping anywhere, particularly on me].  This year I plan on getting her a Christmas outfit for her Build-A-Bear, her Christmas Eve pajamas, a Zoobie, and some more books.  I don't have too much to spend on her, plus she got so much on her first birthday just last month that she really doesn't need much in the way of toys.  I can't wait to see her open her stocking from Santa and opening the presents that me, Nana and Papa, Aunt Bina, Aunt Becca, and GGpa and GGma got her this year <3

What's everybody planning on getting their little ones this year?
