I am five months old and I am a-likin' it.
We had a thing called Christmas this time around. Man, it was awesome. I'm not quite sure I get it though. Why does someone go through the hassel of wrapping stuff in all that paper when it takes about one second to tear it all to peices? Well, it takes me a little longer. It only seems to take Daddy half that time. He's a master un-wrapper. Wouldn't it just be easier for everyone to just give the unwrapped toy? Then you could just start playing with it immediately. What do I know, though.
Thanks to everyone out there that sent me such great presents. They are all super cool! Mommy and Daddy got me a new best buddy, Flutterbug. I also got a jumpy seat. Even though I can't quite figure out how to 'jump' in it, it still is sweet. It's got lights and sounds and a hoppy little kanga on it. Dudes. Just wait until you see it on the video. You'll wish you were me. Totally.
Speaking of Mommy and Daddy. They're hangin' in there. I think I might be driving them just a little nuts as evidenced from the pictures below. You see, I DEMAND attention now. I've figured out how to make my wishes known. All I have to do is scream and 'put on my angry eyes'. They do just about anything to make me stop. Bwa-hahahahaha! You should see it! Man, sometimes I just crack myself up.
To Mommy and Daddy's great relief, I usually get about ten hours of sleep a night. Sometimes, if I really concentrate, I can even go a whole eight hours without eating. How nice am I? Thought I would give Mommy and the Ba-Ba's a break every now and then. I still take at least three naps a day as well. Two little half hour ones and then one ginormous three hour one in the swing. Here's a pic of me and Daddy just chillin'. I'm gettin' ready for a mini-nap.
Oh, and here's a pic of me just waking up. I mean, come on. Noone looks good when the first wake up and yes, Baybee K-T is no exception to the rule. Sigh. There's just no escaping the paparazzi.
There have been a bunch of what Mommy likes to call, "firsts" this month. Let's run down the list of things that make me so cool.
I got my own big girl chair. Now, I can sit and enjoy meals with Mommy and Daddy. I don't have to sit way down on the floor anymore. It's pretty cool. I can play with Flutterbug. I can grab at anything that comes close to me. I can provide entertainment during breaks in conversation. Heck! I can even join in the conversation. It's wicked cool.
I also tried this stuff called 'cereal' for the first time ever this month. I really hated it the first time I tried it. But, I've had it about a dozen times now and I think it's growing on me. Literally.
Ha-ha. What a knee-slapper! Man! I got a million of 'em.
My arms are finally long enough to reach the giant butterfly. FINALLY. Jeez. I've been wanting a piece of him for a while. Watch as I try to pull his wing off. He can take it. He's tough.
What else? Oh yeah! This is a big one. I can sit up now.
Man, do I kick butt or what?
Right after that Christmas thingie, Daddy decided to sit me up to see if I could stay there. And, yep, you guessed it, I DID! I've just been getting better and better at it. It is SOOOOO neat. I can see so much more stuff. The problem is that the stuff is always JUST out of reach. Now, if there was only a way that I could get to it. I'm still working on that one.
Mirror, mirror on the floor. If you don't think I'm cute, show 'em the door.
It snowed again. This time, thanks to one of the Christmas presents I got, I was prepared. It took Mommy about 5 minutes to get this thingie on me, but I think it was worth it.
Check out the faux fur lining. Luxurious.
