Such a Cutie

I know when my parents hold up their phones in front of me, they are taking a picture. I try to do my best to give a good pose! Here I am playing my lil piano: And here I am taking a selfie:

Aunt Jenna and Uncle Zak

My Aunt Jenna and Uncle Zak came to visit for Thanksgiving from Michigan! I have a lot of honorary aunts and uncles, but these two are official- Jenna is my mom’s sister. I think I could tell they are related! Aunt Jenna and Uncle Zak read bedtime stories to me each night. It was a neat twist to our normal routine! Since it’s November in Portland, it was cold and..

I Got a Highchair!

I am 5 months old today! My parents decided it was time to get a highchair for me. I don’t get to eat food for another month, but they thought I would enjoy sitting up at the table with them for short periods of time, just to get used to it. I’ve only tried the chair once but I really like it!! Mom says no food until I am 6.. Read More

My Crib

I do all my sleeping in my crib now. I still don’t like to go to sleep, and I still sleep in my magic sleepsuit because if I don’t, I wake myself up right away. I do really like waking up though. Sometimes my parents will take me out of my sleepsuit and let me hang out in the crib for a few minutes. I usually end up on my.. Read More

On The Move

I’m quickly figuring out how to get from one place to another. I can flip and wiggle and suddenly I’m somewhere new! This morning, my mom put me on my gray blanket (see the “x” for exact placement) and within about 10 minutes I had rolled myself into my activity gym, out of it, and onto the hardwood floor. I kind of like the hardwood because it’s easier to scoot.. Read More

Hanging At Home

The weather is getting cold and rainy, so we spent the afternoon playing inside. I did a lot of tummy time with Shay. I played my Busy Guitar for him. At one point, I wriggled my way under the coffee table with him, but mom wasn’t fast enough to get that on film! Later on, Aunt Gail came over to watch some soccer with my parents. She was wearing a.. Read More

What Do You See?

I love books! My family and I read all the time. My current favorite is the literary classic “Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?” I also really like “Trucks,” but “Brown Bear” has a more gripping storyline. I read it every day!

My Sunday Best

Dad dressed me fancy today. I’m wearing a sweater Mom knit for me, and shoes that are a bit too large but they still look cute! Mom and Dad wanted to take some pictures of me all dressed up. Unfortunately, they only got a few pictures in when I decided I did not feel like being photographed. I usually love having my picture taken, but I was a little grumpy.. Read More

Going to a Birthday Party

Today I went to baby Tarak’s first birthday party. I had never been to a birthday party before! It was Very exciting! There were so many kids running around and having fun. I am too young to eat cake, but not too young to wear a party hat!

Nothing New Here

I’ve been going along each day, growing cuter and cuter! Here I am in my bouncy chair. Mom calls it my office! Today was pretty chilly. Mom put me in the sweater and hat she knit me. The sweater is still big on me, but the hat fits just perfectly! I can tell they were made with lots of love!
