Growing Too Fast!

This weekend Mommy and Daddy noticed that I'm really getting big!  Mommy said I was heavy when she picked me up out of my crib this morning.  I love growing - that means I can do more things - I'm so close to sitting up on my own I think it will be any day now!  I have a really interesting hair-do these days too.  My hair is really full on the top, but because I like to roll around so much (especially in my crib at school) I have fuzzy hair on the back of my head.  Mommy loves touching my fuzzy head!
I had a lot of fun with Cora this weekend too.  She is a great big sister.  I like to hold her hand and I really enjoy when she talks to me.  Every time I smile at her she smiles back and says, "Adam smiled!" She is setting a bad example though when she screams.  Now, when I hold stuffed animals or rattles I scream at them.  I just get way too excited!  I've heard talk that Mimi and Papa are coming next week!  That's exciting too!!!

I've started sleeping with my doopa in the air!

Moving and Shaking

I have been getting the hang of grabbing things and putting things in my mouth recently.  I love practicing with my cowgirl, but if I am playing in my gym, I don't mind playing with the elephant or the lion.  Kicking the animals with my feet is really fun too - think I've been picking up some dance moves from watching Cora!  Mommy and Daddy are ready for me to sit up and to practice they have started sitting me in that stupid pink chair again!  It's not all that bad, but I think I look silly in it!  I have been waking up during the past few nights; Mommy and Daddy are still blaming it on my teeth.  I don't feel any in my mouth right now - I just get really hungry at night and can't wait until the morning when Daddy feeds me!

Cowgirl!

Me and my cowgirl!

Although there are plenty of toys for me to play with around here, I have really taken to the cowgirl.  She makes all sorts of neat sounds and she is really easy to hold!  I'm pretty good at holding her for a fairly long time because I'm really starting to get the grasp of holding things.

I love looking at my Daddy!

Right now I have my first cold.  I got it last week at daycare.  Even though I'm a little stuffed up, I'm still my normal self.  I have to sleep a bit more, but I won't let a cold slow me down.  There's too many things to do during the day - watch my sister, roll around in my gym, suck on my fingers, drool, the list goes on! Daddy felt my gums today to see if any of my teeth were poking through, but he didn't find anything yet!  Any day now I'll start getting teeth!

Naked Babies

Airing out my doopa!

Thank goodness the cold weather has settled in.  Maybe then there won't be so many naked babies all over this house!  I have been spending a lot of time naked, or without my diaper because I got a really bad diaper rash.  Cora runs around naked after her bath, but I'm not sure why.  There is a lot of talk about potties.  Either way, I can finally hold my head up all on my own and I am perfecting rolling.  Within seconds of putting me down on my back, I can roll over on my belly.  The other night Daddy was on the phone and I couldn't see the TV very well, so I rolled, wiggled and squirmed my way to get a better view of the TV.  Although the floor was a bit hard, it really didn't bother me.  I guess the next step for me will be sitting up.  That will be fun - I'm not so fond of sitting in a reclining position anymore or laying on the hard floor.
This past weekend we went to the zoo.  I enjoyed looking at trees, blue sky and people passing by.  The weather was especially pleasant.  Today it got cold though so I think long sleeves and cozy blankets are in order!

Preparing for Halloween - I have decided I am NOT going to be a cat.  I look silly.
