Gargle Gargle

I love, love, love going to Wal-Mart. Nice ladies always stop Mommy and Daddy so they can talk to me. I love meeting new people! I usually just sit quietly in my seat and smile politely when they talk to me. But tonight was different! I decided to try to talk to the nice ladies before they stopped Mommy to talk to me. Guess what? It worked! Even more nice ladies stopped and talked to me when I talked first. When I got home, I showed Daddy what I said to the nice ladies to get them to stop and visit. Want to hear what I said? Watch!

Trying to Crawl

I am trying so very hard to crawl! Watch out Mommy and Daddy!

My Beautiful Christmas Dress AND 6 Months Old

This is my beautiful Christmas dress. Mommy's cousin Emily sewed and smocked it for me. Mommy says I look just like a baby doll. I think it is so pretty! On Christmas Eve, Mommy, Aunt Lori, Grandmother, Granddaddy, and I got to light the Advent candles at church. It was special! I got to wear my pretty dress. A lady at my church took our picture. I will ask Mommy to post it when she gets a copy.

Can you tell in my pictures that I feel bad? I went to the doctor last week because I had a fever. I had strep throat and an ear infection! I am finally starting to feel better today. I have been talking and laughing and playing. I didn't get to go to my 6-month checkup and get my shots because I was sick. But, I weighed 13 pounds and 12 ounces at the doctor visit. I am also 24 inches long now. I go back to the doctor on January 8 to get my ears checked and to get my 6-month shots.

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas. We are not finished celebrating yet. On New Year's Day we will go to my great-grandparents' house. I have lots of things to tell you about Christmas, but you will have to check back later! It's my bedtime!

Merry Christmas!

Good Naps

My Daddy is soooooo cuddly!













Peaches sat in my lap while I was napping.

The Trouble With Headbands . . .

First Word????

What does this sound like to you?

Mommy says she's sorry, but she can't figure out why the sound and video don't match up exactly. I asked her to please put my movie on anyway because I REALLY wanted you to see it!

Talking

I just keep talking and talking to that silly ceiling fan. Why does it never talk back?

Twins

Nap Time

Mommy was rocking me to sleep when I found a handle on the side of her head!

My New Sound

I have discovered that I can make the most interesting sound. Once I start, I just can't stop. I do it while I am rolling over, while I am trying to crawl, while I am eating peas, and even when I fuss. It feels too good on my lips to stop! Just listen . . .

Cute Pictures

I love my Daddy!

Help!

Streeeetch!

I am in a giant stocking at Mama Kaye's.

Hehehe!

Hooray!

Mommy took me to the doctor today just to get weighed and guess what? I am FINALLY on the growth curve! Hooray! I am growing every day. I now weigh 13 pounds and 2 ounces. I am 23 and 1/2 inches long! Tomorrow, on my 5 month birthday, I am going to my Mama Kaye's for Thanksgiving dinner. I get to spend the night there! I know I will have so much fun visiting with everyone! On Thursday, I will get to visit with my family in Paris! Then on Friday there is more company coming. I can't wait! I'll make Mommy and Daddy take lots of pictures so I can share them with you.

My New Trick

I learned something new . . . just in time to show off for Thanksgiving! Watch!

Giggles

Mommy and I played the most fun game this morning!

Silly Me

Mommy says I have been a little more fussy than usual. She told my Mama Kaye and my Grand-mother. They all wonder if I am trying to get a tooth. Mommy tried to look in my mouth. Every time she opened my mouth I stuck my tongue out so that she couldn't see in! Pretty silly, huh? Mommy never saw a tooth. She also tried feeling around inside my mouth (I made her wash her hands before she did that), but she didn't feel anything either. By the way, what is a tooth anyway?

Ewwww Carrots

I do not like them in a box.
I do not like them with a fox.
I do not like them in a house.
I do not like them with a mouse.
I do not like them here or there.
I do not like them anywhere.

Green Beans

Today Mommy fed me green beans with my cereal. I really liked them. I got them everywhere. Does that surprise you? They even got into my nose! After I ate, Mommy and Daddy took me to my room to clean me up. Mommy washed my face. She told me she had to get those green beans out of my nose. When she washed my nose I just laughed and laughed. It tickled!!

New Outfit

Mommy's Aunt Judy sent me some new outfits. Do you like my hat?
