Halloween

So, it's my first Halloween. Here's my costume!

Musikgarten

Mommy signed us up for Musikgarten, so once a week on Wednesdays we go to sing and dance. We've learned a bunch of songs, well mostly I sleep while Mommy learns the songs. But today I decided it was time for me to stay awake during the Musikgarten. I was engaged. Every time the teacher sang I looked at her, I watched the other little kids run around and play and I grabbed a scarf when it was the scarf song. I didn't wave it around, but I held onto it and considered waving it around. I also really liked the sound of the guitar. Very much.

Now I am in my crib contemplating my beautiful reflection in the mirror, making cooing sounds, and playing with my fingers.

It's been a good day today.

Napping

Today was a rough day for me. I cried and cried for an hour and a half straight, Daddy almost died he was so sad for me. My little puppy Mac followed us around the house because he wanted to fix the problem, but he didn't know what the problem was. Then Mommy came home and now I am napping. This is a new thing for me, I take a long nap in the afternoon. I am lying here, sleeping away, with my Lammy next to me. I love my new little Lammy. What's funny is Mommy keeps coming in to look at me. She checks to see if I am breathing, which of course I am.

Life is still good.

My Fingers

Over the past week or so I have discovered that I have fingers. These fingers are very interesting and I spend a lot of time looking at them. I especially like to hold them together in front of me and watch how that works. Right now I am sitting next to Mommy while she works. I am giggling and smiling and watching my fingers.

Also, Mommy and Daddy have put me on a schedule the last couple of nights. I've been going to bed by 930pm and waking up at 6am. This is working perfectly for me as I enjoy sleeping. I am almost too big for my bassinet that sits next to Mommy and Daddy's bed so we are all contemplating my next step. Will it be to my crib - which I am personally rooting for as I LOVE my crib - or to my pack and play? We'll see.

Family Visits

Technically the Princess is not writing this blog, but maybe someday she will. In the meantime, this allows me to dedicate space specifically to her life story rather than splicing it in with my own random ponderings.

This week my great aunt and great uncle came to visit me. My great aunt and I spent the week shopping, decorating my room, eating out at lunch, going to museums. It has been great fun. My great uncle was very funny. Usually I cry when I am put in my infant car seat but great Uncle Jim made faces at me and I laughed instead.
