A Fun Weekend!

Hi Everyone!

This past weekend daddy took Joey mom and me to Barn #1 which has its second round of piggies in it. These are only 2 weeks old...preemies at 7 pounds! They were a little scary to me at first when they were all crowding around, but once there were just a couple by me I liked them. They were very interested in my stroller and kept trying to bite my wheels! Here are some pictures and a video.

We were a little stinky when we got home so Joey and I took a bath!

Then on Sunday the Meyers came down. All 4 of us played in the basement. Austin is getting bigger and likes to play with me more. We had a good time.

Finally, I love to play peek-a-boo with people. I like the parachute that we got for Christmas the most. Here is a video of me having a good time!

This next weekend we are leaving for Florida to visit Great Grandpa! We're going to be there for a week and then at the Meyers for the Superbowl. It's going to be a long and fun week! I will post more of my adventures from Florida or as soon as we get home.

Have a good week!

I'm 10 Months Old Already!!

Can you believe that I'm 10 months old already...43 weeks to be exact! I'm getting bigger and smarter every day. Today I did 5 "big" things, according to mom...

I'm still not crawling, but I have figured out how to get from my tummy into a sitting up position. Now there's no hope for mom getting me to stay on my tummy! I am also scooting to furniture and cruising along it since that's faster than the butt scooch! (Big Deal Of The Day #1)

I have been pointing my finger since yesterday, but today I sat by Corona, pointed my finger, looked at it seriously, and then slowly moved it to touch Corona's nose! This made me laugh! (Big Deal Of The Day #2!) I have also been saying "dog" when I see Corona. Mom tried to get a good video of it, but Joey was interrupting. The beginning of this one is me saying "dog, dog, dog" over and over. I like Corona!

I'm still trying new foods and getting great at eating all sorts of things. I had spaghetti again last night and am happy to report that no noodles came out of my nose this morning! I am getting better at my sippy cup too. Yesterday mom gave it to me and I took a sip. She said "yayyyy" and then so did I. I kept taking sips to make her say it. When the game got old she stopped, but I wanted more praise. I took a little drink, looked at her, and yelled..."yay!?" She thought it was pretty cute! Today I officially mastered the soft and hard spout sippy! I took my cup all over the house, used both hands, and even understood how to tip it up to drink. I drank a whole cup of juice and a whole cup of my bedtime milk! (Big Deal of the Day #3!)

I also like music too. Whenever I hear a song to one of Joey's cartoons, a kid song on youtube.com, or one of my toys making noise, I bob my head up and down...kinda like dancing! I also bob my head when I'm excited. Today we finally got the new set of ball popper balls in the mail. I surprised mom by being able to put all of the balls into the toy on my own! Now if only I could figure out how to make it go! (Big Deal of the Day #4)!

I kissed mom tonight! (Big Deal of the Day #5) She asked me for a kiss and puckered up. I "ate" her lips and said "mmmmmmmmm". Haha! I did this a couple of times, but thought it was really funny when Joey leaned over for a kiss. That was the end of the kisses, it was all games after that! I can make kissy smacks with my lips, but for now I'll just eat you!

Speaking of eating mom...I'm a biter! I bite when I nurse and am worried that now that I've mastered the cup, she may cut me off!! I also bite her on the arm, shoulder, leg, back... wherever. I just like to bite her and her clothes and now she has little hamster teeth marks and welts all over! When she tries to make me stop I just laugh and try to do it more! (Don't worry, mom is the only one that I like to bite!)

These past few days we've had snow. The other day I got dressed up real warm to go play with Joey. He pulled me on the sled for a while and then I sort of tried to feel the snow, but it was hard with all the clothes on! I just played with some inside while Joey stayed out!

I think that is about all of the updates for now. Sorry this post was so long, but I had a lot to tell you! Tomorrow Evan and Daniel are coming over to play and they're bringing their new baby brother Jonathan! I'm sure Joey will tell you all about it on his blog!

Night!

Ewwwww!

Happy New Year!!!

I have a story to tell you...

The other night I got to have my first spaghetti dinner! We actually ate linguine noodles, but it had the same sauce as spaghetti. I LOVED it. I had two helpings and even got to slurping the longer noodles into my mouth. After the dinner I went straight to the tub. Here are some pictures of my meal and then of me in the tub with my new bath toys....

So here's the sick part. The next morning I had a big sneeze and sneezed out a huge snot string down to my chin. (This is normal for me in the morning). Mom went to get me a tissue and it wasn't a snot, but a linguine noodle! About 2 inches of noodle fell out of my nose! Then a few minutes later I sneezed again and another bit of noodle hung out of my nose. Mom pulled on it and there was about another 2 inches up there! I don't know what in the world happened! Mom never saw a noodle up my nose the night before, so I don't know where it came from. It didn't hurt me, it was just gross!

Last night was New Years Eve. We got to play in the basement with mom and dad. The big people all ate food and we watched a movie. I stayed up until 9 and then woke up at 11:30 to eat. I think that I slept through the night other than that!

Today we're planning on going to Fort Wayne to see the progress on Grandma and Papa's new house and then visit with them for a while. We might be going to dinner with Grandma and Grandpa Sekel also. It should be a fun day!

Have a good 2009!
