WELCOME TO MY STORY!

10 MONTHS OLD

I am still crawling and can stand when I hold on to something like the couch. I have also expanded my tastes and enjoy some real people food like bread and noodles and chicken and cheese too as long as it is in little pieces. I actually enjoy cherrios as well. Over the last month, I went to a car show at the fairgrounds and swam in my very own little pool. I also went in a bigger pool when we went to Las Vegas for the weekend. I also babble frequently and said my first word "DADA". Mom thinks I am trying to say Darlene while Dad thinks I am saying Dad. I just like to keep them guessing.

See you in a month! Oh yeah, I am 19 pounds now and when you call me strong boy I flex my muscles like our governor Arnold.

9 MONTHS OLD

In the last month, a bottom tooth is making its way to the surface which has been quite a nuisance. It will be my first tooth. I am eating a bit more of the jar food but am easily distracted because i would much rather be crawling around and discovering new things than eating food. I went on an overnight trip to San Diego and got to hang out with Steve and Lisa which was fun and ride on a plane. The passengers really liked me because I slept most of the way too. I am trying really hard to stand but am going to stick with crawling for awhile. I have the rest of my life to stand!

8 MONTHS OLD!!
Boy, I can do a lot more than just a few weeks ago. I can roll over and sit up and I LOVE all the toys at Omi and Opi's house. I amuse myself now for a longer period of time (at least 10 minutes) than before and guess what else??? I can MOVE!! Yes, I can actually get from one spot to another if left unattended via my legs and arms with some help from my stomach. I have also been out to the speedway on Friday nights and watched all the cars go round the track. It sure sounds familiar. I am still not that crazy about solid food but the doc says I am getting two upper front teeth..can't wait for those. Life is great. Hope to see you soon!

It's hard to believe I have reached that six month mark. This month I have enjoyed all kinds of experiences: learning to sit up on my own but not unsupervised since I easily tip to one side. I also started laughing out loud and when others laugh with me it makes me laugh even harder. I have tried some solid foods like applesauce, rice cereal and bananas but we all know what I prefer and it doesnt involve a spoon! I spend a lot more time on my tummy playing with my laptop and cell phone and of course my train.

My favorite things include going for walks in my stroller and listening to the wind; watching water fall; my bath time; snuggling with mommy; anything I can put in my mouth; nursing tops the list and being held.
