Thanksgiving and Christmas prep

Hello and welcome back for another edition of PICTURES OF ELIZABETH ... starring Elizabeth, daddy, mama and a few other special guests.

This time on PICTURES OF ELIZABETH, we start with a file photo of super cuteness a few days after Halloween, when daddy and Elizabeth made a mini Jack-O-Lantern with a pumpkin she got at the Haunted Halloween Walk at Owl's Head Park. Which is cuter, E or the pumpkin?
We also have a somewhat dark and blurry picture of Elizabeth and daddy at the New York Aquarium. For readers out there, we have free parking and a free guest pass to this aquarium, which is located on Coney Island. So if you visit during beach season, let's hit the beach. If you visit during the off-season, let's hit the glass at the shark tank!
In bittersweet news, we traded all of Elizabeth's adorable girl's clothes (three big boxes) for adorable boy's clothes. It was sad to see such cute and barely worn apparel go away but now we have baby boy clothes for Henry. Sniffle sniffle, hooray.
Good thing Perez Hilton doesn't read this blog or he'd lambast the hell out of this starlet's picture.
One of the guest stars on PICTURES OF ELIZABETH today is Pecos (pronounced "DOH-dohsh") in his new bed with blanket attached. I think they should invent this for humans.

In keeping with our love of all things free, here we are at the National Zoo, where Elizabeth saw an anteater and then rode a very cold metal version of one.
Elizabeth likes to stare when she kisses. Let's hope she drops this tendency by high school.
Thanksgiving dinner was a little less formal this year. Go ahead, wear a Nationals T-shirt and eat with your hands. It's family.
A cute photo starring Elizabeth's Pittsburgh-based namesake who stopped by for a visit.
The rice gobbler missed her mouth a few times but managed to get one grain to stay on each cheek.
Festive photos in Elizabeth's Christmas dress...and hat. Here she's trying to curtsy.
Here Elizabeth is actually furiously shaking her bell ... but because of the magic of a fast shutter and a flash, it looks like she's posing.
There are some nutty people out there ... and most of the Christmas nuts move to our neighboring neighborhood, Dyker Heights.
