A note from me...

Hi Friends...

Just to catch you up a bit...

I am now 10 and 1/2 months old and am VERY exciting. Mommy and Daddy call me their little bundle of joy (and a tornado, and a stinker, too!)...we have SO much fun together.

My favorite things to do are:

Say "Dada" and "Uh, oh"...no "Mama," yet...but it's coming!
Crawl all over the house and leave destruction in my path
Pull myself up on things
Eat big people food
Spend time with Mommy (I usually cry or scream when she is out of sight)
Have tubby time with Daddy
Read books
Play with my toys
Dance to music and "sing"
Chase my kitties around the house
Give open mouth slobbery kisses
Wave hello and goodbye
Play in my crib when I am supposed to be sleeping
Clap

My life is very busy and I am bringing so much fun and craziness to Mommy and Daddy's life. Mommy and Daddy must be going crazy, because they are having a little brother or sister for me in just a few months! We will be only 16 months apart! They keep talking about the "baby" and pointing to Mommy's tummy...I don't really get it...but I guess I will in about 5 months! Mommy has also decided not to go back to her job as a schoolteacher next fall. She is going to stay at home and be a full-time mommy to me and the new little one. She is SO excited about that--and I cannot wait either! My favorite thing is to have Mommy to myself...we will get lots of special time this summer!

Well, I better run, er, crawl...it is dinnnertime and little girlies do not like for dinnertime to be late!!

Lots of love and slobbery kisses!!
