My first biter biscuit! I'm the best eater you'll ever meet... when it comes to the Gerber 1st foods. I'm NOT a fan of anything solid; no Cheerios, no Graduates puffs. Today, Mommy got me some biter biscuits and I'm kinda diggin' 'em. And, of course, where is my trusty partner-in-crime, Potter? Right at my side. I LOVE you, Potter!
Well, Christmas is here and almost gone. I got too many great toys to name. Aunt Lindsay even got something for Potter. I had a great first Christmas spending time with my family. Mommy can't wait to catch up on some much needed sleep.
We went to Great Grandma's today to exchange gifts for Christmas. I got a lot of really nice gifts. I was so well behaved considering that 1) I'm teething, 2) I missed my 11:30 nap and 3) I was in a different environment with all sorts of people that I don't see too often. That being said, the day was a great success. The roads were a little dicey on the trip down, but on the way home we stayed on the main roads. I slept almost the entire way home! I really needed the sleep. We all arrived home safely and are looking forward to a busy week of holiday festivities with family. I'm really loving this whole Christmas thing!!
...is my two front teeth! It's official, my two front teeth will probably make their debut just before Christmas. I wonder if the song was written by a mom with a teething baby? Mommy says she feels sorry for me because she knows I'm in pain. All my teeth are coming in so quickly! Last time I was at the doctor, on 10/15 I had no teeth. When I go on the 28th, I will have 6 maybe 8! That is crazy. Mommy still swears that my two bottom teeth are coming in too. Thanks, Santa! Please help my teeth come in really fast because they hurt!
On Sunday night I started to walk on my knees with my lion. Then, last night before a LIVE audience, I took my first steps.
ENCORE! ENCORE! ENCORE!
My first Black Friday. I learned from Mommy to check out the ads first to see where the best deals are. Next year maybe we'll wait in line early to get me some toys?
Great Grandma came for a visit today on Thanksgiving, my first one!!! I'm really glad she was able to make it. Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt Lindsay and Uncle Steven were here too. Daddy cooked the turkey, everyone said it was delicious! I don't know, because I'm too little for turkey. I had a hard time at my 3 o'clock nap because my teeth hurt so bad! I'm hoping this pain goes away soon!
Not only am I getting two new teeth on the top... but I'm getting two MORE teeth on the bottom too. AT THE SAME TIME!! I am a delight to hang out with :) I'm chewing on anything and everything I can get my hands on.
Tomorrow I'm getting my picture taken professionally for the first time since they were taken at the hospital when I was 1 day old. Mommy says she hopes that I'm not crabby for the pictures. I'm just hoping the pain goes away soon. 
I have two new teeth coming in. Mommy found them last night. I was trying to tell her by being a little crabby yesterday, but she didn't check until Daddy said, "Maybe he's getting more teeth?" It has been less than a month since my first two teeth came in! My first two were the bottom middle, the new two are the top sides. Teething BITES!!
** there is no picture of my new teeth because I won't sit still long enough for Mommy to snap a picture.
I slept really well last night for Mommy and Daddy. I wore the jammies that Great Grandma gave me. Maybe they are magic jammies?!
AND...
A BIG shout out to Aunt Lindsay...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! I LOVE YOU!!!
Nope, you're not seeing things, I'm standing! Mommy keeps this basket under a table with all sorts of fun stuff in it. Don't worry the stuff is all mine... I just can't quite reach unless I stand.
After countless attempts and almost 45 minutes of straight screaming, I finally fell asleep in my pack-n-play. You see, I usually ONLY sleep in my bouncy chair during the day, but now I am getting too big for it! Plus, I can sit up in it and flip it over. So... Mommy and Daddy want me to sleep in my pack-n-play... I did NOT! Mommy was diligent and I finally fell asleep.
Today was busy, especially after I was up for a while last night! Aunt Lindsay came over for a visit and fed me while Mommy got ready. Then Grandma and Grandpa came over for a short visit before we all (Mommy, Daddy, Me, Aunt Lindsay and Grandma and Grandpa) drove to Cracker Barrel to meet Great Grandma for her birthday. At Cracker Barrel Great Grandma gave me a dog dressed as a pumpkin that sings the witch doctor song. After this fun-filled day, we are just relaxing at home looking forward to a great week because Daddy is on vacation!!!
Got my first taste of solid foods tonight. Green beans, yummy! Mommy says it looks like I'm going to be a pretty good eater. Oh, and this morning, Mommy saw the first signs of TEETH on my bottom gum! It's about time!
Mommy, Daddy and I visited the Round Barn Farm today with Liz and Carly. John couldn't come, he was at football. We missed him! Liz and Carly rode the big slide. Then, Carly and I posed for some cutie pics on a bale of hay. We almost got lost in the corn maze?! It was super muddy. Then we rode around the farm on the hayride. As you can tell by the last picture, that was Daddy's favorite part of the day!
