Eureka! I Found It!

I made a new discovery today. Apparently, I am wearing something called a "diaper"...

Watch as I inspect it further...

I love exploring!

Rollin' Rollin' Rollin'

I have now discovered that I can roll from my tummy to my back, AND from my back to my tummy. I have decided I need a bigger blanket to roll on, and maybe a bigger room to roll within. Who needs crawling?

The Little Gym

Here are some pictures of me at my gym class with Mommy. I LOVE it there! Here I am with my friend Isabella, practicing my tummy time...

Here I am grabbing her face (I tend to do that to all the other babies there)...

Here Mom is helping me jump in the air. This is how big my smile is most of the time I'm there...

And here we're ending with some yoga poses to help with flexibility. However, I don't really need any help there.

Hands Free!

I have a new way of measuring the value of my toys. If I can stick it in my mouth, and have my hands free to grab a new toy, it is good. Here are a few of the toys I have evaluated:

Rocket

Monkey

Puppy

I also kick my legs while sitting down when I am excited about something. Here is a video of me happily evaluating my toy house (sorry it's sideways)...

American Gladiators, Here I Come!

I just got back from the pediatrician for my 6 month check-up, and I am still in the 97th percentile for both weight and height. I now weigh 19 lbs, and am 27 1/2 inches tall. Big Pumpkin!

Babies, Babies Everywhere!

I had a playdate with Miles and Kara today. Here are our parents doing a baby-switch...

Here's me with Miles and Kara having wiggly time...

Here I have commandeered Kara's toy, and she's looking for an opening to grab it back. You'll notice I don't even need to use my hands, my mouth is good enough.

Miles and I are told by our moms that we're going to have an arranged marriage, which you can see I'm quite happy about.

Here he is kissing (or biting?) me...

Trying to push me away (it'll never work, I'm bigger than him)

And here I am trying to hold his hand (or arm). See? He likes it!

Dad says that Miles should watch himself, and that I'm not allowed to date yet.

It was a big day, so I relaxed at night in my PJs with Dad.

Posing with Mom

Little Pumpkin

My Nana made me this sweatshirt, which I love. It says "I'm a Little Pumpkin". Thanks, Nana!

Family and Fun

I had a fun time at Grandma and Grandpa's in Phoenix. I got to play with my ball, cuddle my grandparents, and even had some very nice visitors, my cousins Alex and Lillian. I am becoming quite the social butterfly!

Conversations with Grandma

I love my Grandma!

Feeding With Foster

We are having a very fun time visiting Grandma and Grandpa in Phoenix. Since I am now a little individual with unique preferences, I've decided I only like to take my bottle on my changing table. To make me feel more comfortable and at home, Foster decided to cuddle with me while I ate...

And he let me rub his butt with my monkey toes the whole time.

Good boy, Foster!

Rolling Over

I am now officially a big girl, and can roll from my tummy to my back all on my own. This opens up a whole new world of trouble for my parents...

The Pumpkin, 5 Months

Elegant speaker

I may not be able to speak yet, but I am practicing putting my foot in my mouth.
