March Mania

March was a great month!

Since spring officially started this month, we found some sunglasses for me.  I feel pretty bad to the bone in this pair.

March winds bring April showers.

I played so hard that I got my foot stuck in my wash-n-dry toy.

 

 

I've gotten this much bigger, Smoochie!

 

 

 Oh! That tickles!

 That seems to be a very popular spot for people to kiss.

 

 Ok.  I have to take a break from all the smoochin'.

 Smoochie helped me work on my crawling technique.

 

 

I'm still working on routines.  I refuel by munching on my stack-a-cake.

 Is this a good face for a workout instructor?

 How does this thing work? I feel like it's holding me back.

 

Maybe I can incorporate this into my routine.

 I might have munched on the stack-a-cake too much.

 I work hard on my computer.

 No! I didn't save that yet!

Dad, I think I'm ready for the keys to the car. 

 

Let's see what this puppy will do.

 Watch out! Comin' through!

 Peek-a-boo is still a family favorite.

 

 Here I am on my eight-month birthday. 

 Yes.  It has taken eight long months and a lot of hard work to produce cheeks this gloriously robust.

Hail to the toys. 

 Can I have that?

 

 

 What does your tag say?

 

 

 I'd rather eat your beak.

Grammy took me on an expedition so I could learn about trees.

 

 I have been eating dinner outside. 

 

 Do I have something on my nose? It tickles!

 Are you just gonna leave it there?

That's not very nice.

 I like my toy, Honkers.

 Even though I don't understand it.

 You did what to my hair?

 

 I like flying.

 We celebrated my parents' sixth wedding anniversary.

 I like this view.

I like getting all of my toys out. 

 

 We celebrated Smoochie's birthday.  Playing with Mom's hair is fun.

I helped her open her present. 

 

I kept the party lively.

 Here I am crawling some more.

 It's as hard as tummy time was!

 

 I'm really good at sitting on my own.

 

 This is my new favorite face to make. 

 

 My parents call it the "Scrunchy nose".

 Let's face it.  They're going to have a lot to keep up with soon.

I'll be keeping in touch! 

February

Hi!  February was a very busy month!  It was my first leap year and lots of other great events.

My parents dedicated me to the Lord at our church on February 12th.

All of my grandparents came over for lunch and playtime after the service.

Grammy is helping me show Granddaddy the clothes I have in my washing machine.

Granddaddy has nicknamed Grandmomma "Smoochie".  It seems like a good fit.

I still love playing peek-a-boo!

So it's winter and my parents take me for walks. 

I watched the Superbowl with my grandaddy.  Are they going to score?

Grammy took this picture while she was with me one afternoon.

These are pictures from my seven-month birthday!

If something is in my hands, it's also in my mouth.

Life is sweet.

Mom has this picture as her desktop background on her computer.

It snowed so I had a good reason to wear my toboggan that Aunt Kimberly and Uncle Dr. Z sent me from Seattle.

I had lunch with my parents' good friends and their daughter.  She's not ready to play with me yet. 

 I gave her dad some tips. He thought I was very wise.

I visited with my aunt and uncle and their dog, Molson. My aunt is very fashionable so we talk clothes when I'm with her.  Do you think this color looks good with my eyes?

Hang on, Molson.  I'll find one for you.

Wheeeee! This is fun!

Uncle Scott likes my cheeks.

I'm thinking about being a dentist.  Can I practice on you?

Aunt Kensley practiced feeding me. 

We shopped for couches.  I wasn't so sure about this reclining action.

I touched the dog.

I'm getting dressed before church.

Hello?

I'm taking baths in the big person bathtub.

I get clean and then they slather lotion all over me.

I have the best time playing with my toys.

I attended the youth orchestra concert where my mom conducted.  I was very proud of her.

I'm getting close to crawling.

Spring is coming soon so my parents took me outside to see the pretty blooms.

What's this?

What are you doing over there?

Um, I'm being surrounded by furry things.

What is that?

I was so exhausted after this month that I just had to crash on my giraffe.
