the story of me

Caught In The Act

By Laura Today Marco has decided it’s time to start trying to pull himself into a standing position. He started this in his crib when he was supposed to be napping! I guess it’s time to lower the crib. Marco later tried to pull himself up to get to Daddy’s computer. We have one determined child!

Just Checking In

It’s been awhile since I have been featured on this blog so I’ll catch you up on what has been going on. I am not crazy about daycare. However, my parents tell me I will be starting at a new daycare in a week, and they think I will like it more. It is close to home and my parents speak very highly of it. I hope I don’t cry..

I Have a Cold

It was only a matter of time… I caught my first cold. I feel pretty miserable but I’m being a good sport. I really hate it when my mom tries to suck my boogers out with the Nosefrida. Otherwise, I’m trying to get lots of rest so I can feel better.

My First Day of Daycare

Since my mom is working three days a week, I had to start daycare today. Mom and Dad tell me it’s a good place to learn how to interact with other kids and adults. I don’t really see the need to learn this, to be honest. I’m ok with just being around Mom and Dad! When Mom said goodbye and left me this morning, I cried a lot! But even.. Read More

My Library

I have a huge library that my parents try to keep organized in the shelves under my window seat. However, I have decided that I like my books all over the floor. Every day, I go pull all my books out and scatter them everywhere. I think this makes my mom crazy, but she’s going to have to get used to things being messy around here!

Sitting Up

It seems like every day I learn something new! Today I mastered getting into a sitting position by myself. I am still a little wobbly and I need Mom or Dad close by in case I start to topple, but for the most part, I got this! My parents are so proud of me!

My New Skills

I have been working hard on crawling and sitting up. I can do an “army crawl” across the floor at a fairly good pace when I’m motivated. I can also get myself into an almost-sitting position! With just a little help, I can sit up. I’m still wobbly and I’ve had a couple tumbles, but I’m getting the hang of it! It is all pretty exciting and it makes me.. Read More

6 months!

I turned six months old today and my dad made this cool image for me showing how I have been growing!

Giggles!

While I smile a lot these days, I haven’t really laughed yet. Today, however, I saw something very funny. A car rolled off my banana box and flipped over! That made me laugh my first real laugh. My dad did it a few more times so my mom could try and get my laugh on camera. WATCH VIDEO I guess it’s a good thing my mom didn’t get rid of.. Read More

So That’s What Food Tastes Like

As a Christmas treat, my parents decided to give me my first solid food. My mom roasted and puréed sweet potatoes. Sounds good, right? I was like, yes please! I’ve been watching my parents eat for some time now, and I am always reaching out for their food in hopes they will let me try it. As for these sweet potatoes, I was not impressed. Here is my reaction: I.. Read More
