Standing By Myself...Sort Of.




I have been pulling up from sitting to standing for a couple of months now. Standing has always been a favorite position since birth. Today, I stood up (with a little assistance) and held on to the kitchen couch all by myself!

Milk - My First Sign

For months, my mama and daddy have been working on baby signing with me. This morning I woke up starving and decided to tell someone about it! So, I signed the word "milk," and it worked!! Now, I sign "milk" when I am hungry, or want to be picked up, or tired, or want a toy. Sometimes I think that "milk" means "I want it!." :)

Out to Brunch in Bishop Arts Area

My Swing!

Faster! Higher!

My mama and daddy hung a swing for me in the back yard. I love to be pushed again and again!

Food, food, and more food!



I love food...usually.

In the past two months or so, I have tried rice cereal, oatmeal cereal, avocados, carrots, pears, bananas, spinach, zucchini, squash, apples, cheerios, whole wheat bread pieces, and teething biscuits. And I have liked all of it...well, mostly all of it. My mama can usually trick me into finishing my food by adding some oatmeal and milk to mostly anything, and I will gobble it down.



Do you know what happens when a baby gets solid foods? Chew-eeeee!! I never knew my diapers could be so smelly, and I am not sure what is going on down there, but it can certainly be stressful at times. Mostly only when I eat carrots so my mama says I can take a break and try them again in a month or so.




So far, I make for a good vegetarian. When do I get that steak and potatoes??

Sometimes when I am getting distracted or fussy while I eat, my mama throws her head back and says "oh! life's so tough!," and I like to mock her. :)




Is it just me or is that a Buddha belly?
