This baby pilgrim, who turns 1 year old on Thanksgiving Day, celebrated with a pumpkin pie photo shoot, and we couldn't be more grateful.
Eloise Pantoja, from Chicago, is too cute wearing her custom pilgrim costume and a dollop of whipped cream on her nose.
"She likes to be held. She likes to dance. She laughs a lot," Eloise’s mother, Samantha Pantoja, told "Good Morning America."
Eloise’s parents, Samantha and Marcelino Pantoja, set up the shoot earlier this month to celebrate their daughter’s first Thanksgiving -- and first birthday. It was Marcelino’s idea to dress her up as a pilgrim.
The parents headed to a local JCPenney Portraits studio to capture the moment. And believe it or not, Eloise was well-behaved throughout the 45-minute shoot, her parents said. Though, she did love playing with the pumpkin pie.
"She was kind of shocked. Like, 'This is for me? I can touch it?’" Marcelino said.
Samantha added that Eloise put the whipped cream on her nose herself.
"She likes to be the center of attention. … She’s a super happy baby," Samantha said.
