39 Weeks Old!

Can you believe that I'm 39 weeks old already!? I have two new teeth now, making 5 total and at least one more on the way! I have been drooling and snotty all week! I hope that this is over soon. At least my new teeth have lead to me being able to eat a bunch of new finger foods. I love bananas, green beans, baked beans, noodles, and I'll try pretty much whatever mom gives me. Joey even shared his goldfish crackers with me today!

I am getting more mobile too. I still don't stay on my belly to learn crawling. Instead I scoot and spin around on my tushie. I have been reaching far in front of me by going up on my knees and then plopping back on my butt. Mom said that this is a start into the crawling position from sitting, but I just don't want to try. I can also stand at the couch or in my crib if I'm holding on. I just about have the hang of pulling myself up onto mom or an object unassisted too. It won't be long until I am walking...watch out mom! Dad put my baby gate on the basement stairs and mom lowered my crib mattress, so we're all ready for my next milestone!

I am also starting to babble all sorts of sounds and ma-ma is one of them. I don't think that I officially have "Mama" in my vocabulary though. I am also working on "cause and effect". If mom is holding me but watching something else I will twist over and stare at her face until she looks at me. Then when she goes back to what she is watching, I do it again! I also have learned how to "feed" mom with my spoon when she is trying to feed me. If mom opens her mouth I stick my spoon in! Who knew that I was so smart already!

This past weekend we also took a trip to COSI in Columbus with Jen and Alex. I was a little small to participate in most of the activities, but I got to sit at a water table and splash around. IT WAS SO MUCH FUN!!! I would have sat there all day, but the boys were ready to go. I even got so wet that I had to give up my pants to be put in the clothes dryer!


I'm gearing up for Christmas. I hope that Joey has asked for good toys for me since I can't talk yet. Here is a cute picture of me laying under the tree playing with ornaments.

Night,
Moxon
