Baby Party

Cruising with Fisher

Today Mommie, Daddy, and I went to a baby party with all my friends from my play group. It was a surprisingly pleasant afternoon given that it rained all morning. There were lots of toys and blankets to play on. Everyone brought food so that we could have a pot luck dinner. With all the eating and playing, the afternoon flew by in a hurry, and soon we had to head home to take a bath and go to bed.

Mommie and I have been going to the play group for the past few months. Every Tuesday we meet at a different person's house and have fun for about an hour. Everyone lives in Crestview and Brentwood, so it's easy to meet up. We've hosted play group twice already. I like playing with my friends. Since we're all within a few months of age, we get to learn from each other and talk about our developments. I'm about in the middle of the group. I have three teeth peaking out, but Jane has 8 teeth fully out and Thalia doesn't have any. I'm great at crawling and can stand up on my own, but Cole and Hudson can already walk and Bay is just learning to roll onto her belly.

I can't wait until next Tuesday's play date!

Testing out the new Backpack

The past few weekends, M&D and I have taken road trips to College Station. M&D head to the A&M football games while I get to play with Nana and Papaw. Now that I've become an expert crawler, I have a lot of fun exploring their house and finding all of the things that I'm not supposed to play with. I've recently become aware that if I want something, I can scream to tell everyone. I also scream to let them know if they've taken something from me that I wasn't done playing with. I might have learned this great screaming fun from my cousin Adam, or maybe it's just part of my normal development. Either way, I like to hear myself scream. Sometimes I belt out a loud one and look around proudly to see if anyone noticed. I do the same thing at daycare. In fact, my teachers at daycare asked M&D if I do it at home, and they reassured the teachers that this is my favorite new habit. My other new trick is trying to stand up on my own. I am very good at standing up while holding onto things, but I'm still working on staying upright once I let go. My best free stands have been about 3 seconds. I can just imagine that soon I'll be able to walk like some of my classmates and my cousins Cora and Adam.
