I know, I know, another photo of me eating. But I do it a lot and Mom can get a good shot because I can’t crawl away! Just wanted to let everyone know that I”m over the Strep Throat I had, and whatever kind of stomach bug that came with it.

I’m officially eleven and a half months old. Can you believe it? I wonder if anyone is throwing me a surprise party. I love surprises. I also love grapes. I can’t get enough of them. Or any fruit, actually. In fact, I just like to eat.

That’s about it, I guess. Cousin Kellen is coming to town this weekend, so there will be lots of photos of us taken, I’m sure. If they can catch us!

Mom and Dad got me some really fun letters to play with in the tub. As if I didn’t already have lots of fun during bathtime! But anyway, I was playing with them the other day and look what I did, I spelled my name! I’m so smart.

And then I decided the Y looked like it would taste good. It did. Oh, and did I mention I reached 11 months last week? Yep, almost a year. Amazing.

Here they are! My first two teeth. I’ve had ’em for a couple months, but I still love showing them off. And honestly, they’re all I have right now. So, here they are! Aren’t they cute?

I turned 8 months old last week. I am starting to get some hair, mostly brown. Still no teeth, though I’ve been seriously teething for days now. Wish they’d pop through. I still love to smile (see above), I still love bath time and I still scream out in happiness whenever I see my big brother Bug. I have learned to feed myself puffs and small pieces of bananas. I make a big mess, but Mom and Dad think it’s fun to watch. I’ve started sitting up in the cart when Mom and I go shopping. I love looking around and smiling at strangers. Overall, I’m a pretty darn happy kid. Hee hee!

Wow! I’m already a half-year old. I can’t believe it. To celebrate we went to visit my Pediatrician, Dr. Miller. He’s a really nice guy. He told me I weigh 16 lbs, 6 oz and am 26.5 inches long. Both are just above average, which is appropriate. When we got home I helped Mom and Dad make dinner. But they only let me hold the spoon. Oh well, I’ll learn to cook soon enough!
