Yo everybody! I'm 6 months old! Let me tell you what has happened in the last month or so. This is me getting dressed up to go out with Mommy and Daddy over to my friend, Anna's. There was some football game on or something. So I decided to go all sporty.
I enjoy hanging out at home during the day with Mommy and the furry friends. Lucy and I have started hanging out a lot together on the floor. She's soft and fun. Sometimes she's a bit crazy, but I can get a little bit wild, too!
I'm getting to be an expert at sitting up. I have a little piano that I'm starting to play. Soon I'll be joining Daddy in a jam session! I'm getting stronger every day. I think next month I'll be showing off how I can crawl...maybe. Also, just to note, you can see my hair's growing in nicely on the top of my head. Barrettes and bows are probably right around the corner!
It is February, and we live in Ohio, so Mommy and Daddy keep me nice and warm. Do you like my new sweater? It goes with my fun hat! I probably need shoes if I'm heading outside, though. Still getting used to having those on. I like being barefoot, like my Daddy.
The pink skirt and leggings Mommy got for me are so cool! I was so excited I started singing! Mommy sings to me all the time and I'm starting to pick up on it. I like to sing when she's changing me, when I'm playing on the floor, even when I'm eating. Sometimes it gets a bit messy, but it's still fun! Talking about messy...
I've been chowing down on solid foods. Get me more peas, pears, carrots, squash, sweet potatoes...anything green, yellow, orange that comes in a jar send it my way! I also like my cereal - rice or oatmeal - eating from a spoon is so fun! Plus I get to sit in my high chair right next to Mommy and Daddy during dinner.
By the way, I'm becoming a pro at sitting in the grocery cart at the store, and at high chairs in restaurants. So, Mom and Dad, leave that carrier in the car!Daddy, Mommy and I took our first winter adventure to the Columbus Zoo! It was cold, but we stayed inside most of the time. I saw elephants and rhinos and mooses and gorillas. Actually, I think I was asleep by the time we got to the gorillas. But the most fun was sitting in the big coral reef aquarium. There were so many colorful and fun animals in there. I loved it when the sting ray swam right up the glass. It was really exciting! I can't wait to see more animals when it warms up.
Well, that's the beginning of 2009. I think this is going to be a fun year. Talk to you later!
Love, Reese
