Hi everyone. Sometimes when its sunny outside, my parents take me to a park nearby. Here I am hanging out on the grass.



And here I am with my Dad playing on a little school bus at the park.


And here I am swinging. I like swinging for a few minutes, but then I get tired of it.

Finally, here I am playing with the pine straw.



Talk to you later,

Hi everybody! I thought I'd show you what I've been working on lately...Standing up!
I've been pulling up on everything I can. Here I am standing with my caterpillar toy.
And here I am standing on the stairs with Daddy.

Here I am standing with the coffee table. I like to hold on to the coffee table and cruise around some.I also like to stand up and read a good book on the coffee table.

Here I am standing outside my crib...

and here I am standing inside my crib. Daddy had to lower my crib when I learned this trick!
Pulling up and standing is pretty easy for me now. So I've started to work on sitting down. Let me show you my technique:

Step 1: Stand up
Step 2: Push off
Step 3: Let go
Step 4: The dismount!
It took a few days to figure out, but I don't hit my head on the ground anymore. Good thing these diapers have lots of padding!

Hi everyone!
I'm nine months old now- can you believe it? I guess time flies when you're having fun!
I went to the doctor yesterday. The doctor was really nice- she laughed at my funny faces and let me chew on her calculator. She said I'm doing great. I weigh 18 pounds, 8 ounces and I'm 27 inches tall. My head's still pretty big for my body- must be all those brains in there! She said I'm doing everything I should be doing by now, like sitting up, pulling up to stand, crawling and making lots of sounds. I still don't have any teeth yet, but she said they might be coming soon. She also said I might be walking and talking by my next appointment at 12 months. That's a good thing, because I sure have a lot to say, I can't wait until I can tell you all what I'm thinking!

Here's a video of a lot of things I did the other day. I had a pretty busy day, so it's kind of a long video- hope you enjoy it!

Hi everyone. When I woke up from my nap this afternoon, I looked out the window and saw something crazy -it was snowing!
My parents and I got bundled up and went outside to play in the snow. Here we are.



I hope everyone else is enjoying the weather.
