Week 36...Guess what I can do now...

I can now get into a sitting position when I am laying down! I am an even bigger fan of standing up. I think I will just skip that crawling thing everyone talks about. Walking looks a lot more fun! Mommy and Daddy moved my crib mattress down this weekend, just in case. I can also wave and say "Hi!" I learned that from an older girl at Annie's. I also learned that it feels funny when I shake my head no. Mommy and Daddy took me to storytelling at the library again. I am getting to be a regular and I know a lot of the songs. Mommy got off work early on Tuesday and I was so excited. We celebrated by me getting a flu shot. Wait, that wasn't supposed to happen! I was such a big girl though-it didn't hurt too bad. On Friday, Mommy took me to see GrandNana in her new place. I was a hit with all the people there! This Saturday, Daddy and Mommy took me to a nursery where we picked out a tree for our front yard. It was so muddy that we couldn't drive in our car, and we had to ride in a Gator! What an adventure! Splish, splash I was taking a bath...(it really was on Saturday night!) I thought that song was better than "Tiny Bubbles!) OK, where's the food? I really love my puppy. I take most of my naps at home with him. I just can't believe how bad the Tigers are playing. Are the Chiefs any better?

Week 35...Cough, Cough, Sniffle, Sniffle

What a week! Both mommy and me have been sick about all week. I had a couple of rough nights but mommy and daddy took care of me. Daddy even drove me around from 3 to 4 in the morning to try and help me sleep. I waved bye bye to mommy this week and was able to push myself up to a sitting position while resting up against mommy. I think mommy and daddy took me Christmas or Birthday shopping but I only remember looking at the lights in the ceiling at the store....or so they think. I tried whole grain cereal today but it was a bit too much with me being stuffed up and all. I think I will try it again when I get to feeling better. I got to go to a fun baby shower. I think this baby will be just as spoiled as I am. Overall it was a good week, I just hope that everyone gets to feeling better soon. The Chiefs win, finally! I thought they were going to replace Cassel with me! My Tony Pena catching stance I like to dump all of my toys out to find just the right one! There's a spider on my head, on my head... I'm getting clever in finding my toys..."Hello Clifford!" My classic pose I love to read about animals! Just rolling around with Mommy!

Week 34...more teeth...we think!

This was a very fast week! We got to visit Papa Rodney's brother and his wife last Monday. That was fun, but it kept me up past my bedtime! Daddy picked me up a few times this week which was nice. He got some good videos of me playing. More of my teeth are coming in so I have been kind of crabby but Mommy and Daddy still love me. I also got to eat my first finger foods! They tasted like bananas...mmmmm! Here I am with my first real taste of water!The water bottle is quickly becoming my favorite toy. Daddy caught me clapping! Mommy and me playing tug of war with the pretzel bag.Me and Mommy enjoying a moment alone..well kind of alone!Here I am making a lot of noise!
Here I am trying to get Tiger!
Me and my first finger food!

Week 33....Bouncing back!

I'm on the move! No, I'm not crawling...I'm bouncing where I want to go! You'll see in the video. I am eating more solids now and talking a lot! I can also find my Daddy when Mommy says, "Where's Daddy?"

It's cold enough for these sleeper things again!

Here I am in my first pair of jeans! I'm getting to be such a big girl!

Bounce, bounce, bounce!

Week 32.....A sad week

Hi all! While I was busy growing and learning new things this week, Mommy and Daddy had me say good-bye to my friend Sadie. She was such a good friend to me and I loved squealing when she followed me down the hall. I still look around for her every once in a while. It is pretty quiet here. I did get to try oatmeal with my applesauce this week and am starting on another cold! Mommy and I spent some time together in the middle of the night when I couldn't breathe again. Here I am with Mommy when I feel pretty good! I love to touch my Daddy's face-he's the best! Hmmmm....I think I like the sweet potato/green bean combo! Here I am taking a personal call on my cell phone. I like to firm up my body with some toe touches! All smiles! Shake, rattle, and roll!

Week 31...Lots going on, not a lot of pictures!

This really has been a big week for me. Sadie and Tiger were pretty sick this week and they kept Mommy and Daddy busy, so there are not a lot of pictures. I got to eat my favorite food yet-plums! Mommy doesn't have anything else made for me to try, so I am going to sample oatmeal next week. That sounds kind of boring! Our Parents as Teachers educator came this week. She said that I was doing great and asked if I was doing a lot of different things. Some things I hadn't even been able to try yet, like standing up holding onto something. I could do it-who knew? I started clapping the very next day! I wore my last Pampers Swaddler diaper this week, so now I am in Cruisers. I am sure I will learn how to cruise soon.


Finally, I got to go to the place where Mommy and Daddy met again because Mommy had a meeting and conference there. This time, Grandma went with us! We had so much fun! I am exhausted though. Maybe I am going through a growth spurt because I have been eating and sleeping more than usual. I guess we will find out next week!

30 weeks old...I love to play!

What a fun week! I got to eat peaches for the first time. I think they are my favorite so far. Mommy only has one more thing made that I haven't tried...plums. I'll let you know how I like them next week. I really like to play with everything and I am starting to talk a lot more. Mommy and I got to cuddle every chance we got. I tried to show Daddy how I like to knock my blocks together so they make noise. Tiger got to come in the house for a while and I heard that "gentle" word again. I just got so excited to see her that I just wanted to grab her! All these toys, and I chose the water bottle to play with! My other favorites-Mommy's hair and Daddy's ear! I love my new stuffed bear. I like to give it a hug when I am sitting up, but when I am laying down, look out!
