I Can Do It!!

This week has been one of those weeks where Mommy and Daddy spend most of their time watching me in complete amazement. I showed them how I can crawl up the stairs, I proved that I can stand very still while they marked my height on the wall, and I even showed them how well I "obey." If Mommy or Daddy puts their hand out, I know they want what I have in my hand.... or my mouth so; I kindly hand it over and then I start clapping because I know I've done well.

It's been very hot and humid in Illinois lately so, we've been spending lots of time in my pool... sometimes Mommy doesn't even make me wear my suit!!
This stuffed bear named "William" was Mommy's when she was little and now it's been passed down to me. I guess I was curious what his mittens taste like!!
Let me help you get that note right, Daddy.

See how nicely I stood while Daddy marked my height?
Are you sure that's right???Mommy's double-checking Dad's work....

Look at how good I am at crawling up the steps!! I almost made it all the way to the top!! Still need a little help getting down though...
I'm now sporting three teeth instead of just my two bottom ones!!! Last night I woke up once crying because my gummies were bugging me. A couple teething tablets later I was fast asleep. This morning Mommy looked and sure enough, there was my top left tooth!!

I'm still pushing my lion all over the house. This last weekend I preferred shuffling beside it though instead of walking behind it. I even gave my lamb a couple rides!! I took a couple (baby) steps this past weekend and that really made Daddy's ears perk up. Now he wants me to "practice" walking. Sorry Daddy, but I don't even know what "practice" means!!
