Dooooo your ears hang low





Do they wiggle when you walk
Can you tie them in a bow
Can you tie them in a knot
Can you throw them over your shoulder
like a Continetal Soldier
Do your Ears Hang Low!

Chompers


I grew 2 teeth yesterday! Bye bye gummy grins, hello toothy smiles!
Ok... turns out just to be one tooth... it's in there somewhere!

Lesson Learned

We all went and visited the Littlest Q last night. He is cute. We chatted a bit and I tried to tell him everything I know like: when it's dark outside you should wake up every 2 hours or more often if possible; Fussing for no expected reason will stress out your parents and stressed parents are fun to watch; Pee as often as possible when the diaper is off, and try get it on the diaper changer but avoid getting it in your own mouth and finally, when mom has something that needs to be done you should fuss as much as possible and then be as nice as pie when dad gets home and pretend like nothing was going on.
I also met his cat, Mouser.... For the record... We do not get along. Who knew cats don't like their fur pulled (mom did, I guess dad didn't). Who knew that it might cause a cat to turn and BITE ME! I think I learned my lesson.

Super Sized weekends!

Two weeks ago mom had a 3 day weekend and Dad was out of town for most of it. He left me in charge of mom again and I did my best to keep her busy. I'll post pictures a little later. I had a pretty eventful week. Mom had that Monday off and we ran some errands and of course didn't get everything done that needed done. We watched the Buckeyes on Saturday and looked for dad in the crowd. I did not see him. Sunday mom and I went for breakfast at Mozart's and I met a little boy there named Sebastian. He did his best to try and give me his cough, but luckily I did not pick it up.
Last week I had some guest sitters. It was fun. On Thursday Robin from across the street watched me. She and I both have red hair, so I knew that we would get along. We had a great day and spent most of it walking around the neighborhood. Friday Mom stayed home half a day with me and then took me to my friends Sophia and Jen's house. Jen was sure surprised when she put me on the floor and I took off army crawling away. Sophia is much more content to stay in one place. Not me! I've got people to see and places to go.
Dad went to the game this weekend with his friend Steve. Mom told me after Ginn dropped the first punt return that we should expect to see Dad home in about 45 min. But he stuck it out and I took a nap. I just couldn't watch it anymore. I take after my dad that way.
Sunday I helped mom and dad set up the block party and then spent the rest of the day hanging out with all the neighbors. It was a very fun time. You should have seen all the kids out there on their bikes and scooters. We had food and I even got to drink some lemonade. All that partying sure wore me out though.
My regular nanny is back in town. We have a good time together. I think that mom and dad and I are going to see the Littlest Q tonight and take over some dinner. I need to get a good look at him. I'll post pictures soon!

Have I been busy or what!


I know... It's been a week since I last checked in. I have been so busy working on scooching and crawling and rolling. I've also added in some chatting. Mom and Dad now know when I'm mad by the tone of my "Da da da da DAH!'s"
Here's some stuff that has kept me busy.... Wrestling mom...

Playing in my tire....

Did I tell you that I started eating solid foods? Sometimes I'm not sure about it the first few bites but I've decided that I like everything! Mom cooks me veggies sometimes and Dad gets some at the store for me.

I've been hanging out with the neighbor kids. I love playing with Natalie... you have to be careful of her sometimes. I like to zig when she zags sometimes. Sydney was teaching me how to ride her bike. I was much more interested in giving it a chew though...

I caught a bit of a cold so mom and dad gave me an eucalyptus bubble bath. It sure was fun. Here I am with a bubble beard!
