Like the bunny, I keep going and going...

Howdy Folks,

It's update time! I just keep going and going and growing and...phew - it's a lot of work :-). I thought it'd be a great time to share some of my recent changes with you today:

Crawling
I've been crawling so fast recently that my little legs look like a blur. Apparently, my Dad had the same crawling style. It's fun when Dad and I race toward my favorite green ball, or my little blue squishy football.

Summersaults
You bet. Summersaults rock. All I have to do is crawl, stop, then burry by head into the ground. At that point, I just have to wait for Mom or Dad to come by, grab my legs, and swing me over. It's a ton of fun.

Toofers
I know, I know...My molars have been taking a while to come in. There were a few false alarms when my gums swelled up, and I made sure that everyone knew it hurt ;-). However, after all of this drama - nothing...UNTIL NOW! A molar has finally broken through. These teeth are significantly bigger and (as before) I made sure EVERYONE knew that this tooth hurt. Sunday and Monday of this week, few of us got much sleep (and my window was open so I'm sure I got a few neighbors as well). I also had a runny nose that made matters worse. Not to worry - I'm on the mend at this point and doing much better :-)

Bipedal
Well..not yet, but I'm close. The other day, Mom had a fantastic looking Blizzard (I'll admit it - I'm an ice cream fanatic). I crawled to her for a tasty bite, but the Blizzard was just too high. So, I climbed up on to my toes (all ten of them ;-) and reached with all I had. I was so focused on the Blizzard that I didn't realize I had been standing for 10 seconds. Of course, as soon as I realized what I was doing I lost my balance and sat back down. To show others my new talent, Mom entices me with other tasty treats like gram crackers. I can't really complain - I get to work on my balance and get a treat out of the deal :-)

Another baby?
Gotcha! We've actually been enjoying the company of my very good friend Claire (7 months old). Mom started watching her in the mornings while her Mom goes to work. It's fun watching Mom juggle both of us ;-). She's doing an awesome job and looks like a pro!

That should just about cover it for now. Catch ya later!
