| "I was born with an enormous need for affection, and a terrible need to give it." Audrey Hepburn |
I Do Not like:
Being hungry
Bright lights
Not being the center of attention
Mommy or Daddy leaving me... even to make my food or a bottle.
Being sleepy
Getting stuck... now that I'm on the move it happens a lot.
Things I Love:
My bottle
My sippie cup
Noise Making Toys
Mommy's homemade baby food
Cheerios
Bananas, Peaches, Watermelon, Peas... pretty much anything I can get into my mouth!
Gnawing on Tortillas/Rolls
Playing and jumping in my exersaucer
Army crawling
Crawling
Trying to pull myself up
Peek-A-Boo
Tickling
Making "Poot" noises... thanks Daddy, Uncle D, RB, and Grandpa Jim-Jim for teaching me that!
Taking baths
SWIMMING!
Taking walks with Mommy and Daddy
Playing with my puppy friends: Jr., Vadar, Mickey, Jake, Hank, and Diesel
Sitting up on my own
Pulling up in my crib -- Daddy lowered it when Mommy found me trying to jump ship!
Fake crying to try to trick Mommy and Daddy into getting what I want... it's not really working on them though... I'll just try it on the Grands!
Wordsworth:
"Mamamama"
"Dadadadada"
"Bababababa"
"Aaaahhhh"
"Grrr"
Milestones:
July 1st: Started crawling... a lot!
July 3rd: Aunt Britt-Britt gave me my first Oreo! It was so good! I looked like Jr when it was "gone"!!
July 14th: Pulled myself up with the help of the coffee table.
July 19th: Got my first tooth brush from Aunt Britt-Britt and my soon-to-be dental hygienist Ms. Angela! I was also taped to be in a promo/commercial for the first time. I may be a TV star! ;-P
I am growing and achieving so much these days! Mommy says I'm as tall as some of the two-year-olds she teaches! I'm also starting to test the "discipline waters." I zoom off to put a computer cord or some other dangerous thing in my mouth and look back to make sure Mommy and Daddy are watching, give a "I know I'm not supposed to do this look," then in my mouth it goes! I'm not sure what this new word "No!" is, but I don't think I'm going to like it! I am also a crawling super star. Man I can move! Why didn't I start this sooner?!
A few weeks ago, Mommy hurt her foot exercising, so she's had a rough time chasing me around and climbing up and down the stairs.The Dr said she needs to stay off of it for another month so the fracture can heal. Last week, Daddy had his Graduation ceremony where he gave the best Valedictorian speech. Mommy and I are *so* proud of him! Our hero!
I don't go see my Dr again until I'm 9 months, but I have definitely gotten much taller since my last visit.
