Just Not Sure

Have you ever had one of those days when you just can't decide whether you will be happy or sad...well that's how I'm feeling this morning :o) As you can tell by my face I'm just not so sure...Hope everyone has a good day. I get to spend the upcoming weekend with daddy cause mommy has to work with Auntie Coco at the horse show...it should be fun!

Blame it on Mommy!!

OK - so I have been bugging mommy for a long time now to update my page. I am growing up so fast! I am definitely not a baby anymore! I am crawling all over the place, and I can pull myself up on everything too! This does however mean that I fall down a little more often...but it's ok. I am pretty tough! Mommy has to tell me NO sometimes now. I am starting to learn what it means, but sometimes I like to test her (hehehe). Sometimes when she tells me no I sit and yell for about 3 seconds and then I am fine. And sometimes I like to play games with mommy and see how long it takes to get her to just give in and laugh at me!! When she tells me no and I give her a little eyebrow raise and my cute little giggle...and she pretty much gives in every time! So since mommy hasn't updated my page in a (VERY) long time. I convinced her to put up a bunch of pictures...so here you go!!

I LOVE this piano...especially now that I can stand and play with all of the fun things on the back side of it!

I like to stand at the window now and look outside to see daddy coming up the driveway!

Here is me with my sippy cup. I am just learning how to use this. I really like to chew on it cause it feels good on my teeth (which still haven't come in yet!) Mommy bought me one with a straw yesterday and I am MUCH better at that one - cause I don't have to tip it up to get anything!
Daddy says that I found all of the things that he doesn't want me to get into the first day I was crawling...mommy thinks I will still find some more things!!

I LOVE dog water!!! YAY

Well, as a kid...I get kind of bored with things pretty easily. But man do I love my jumper! It is just like riding a horse. It even sounds like a horse! Sometimes mommy makes the horse noises too and that makes me laugh pretty hard. Here is a video of me jumping for you. I have become a master jumper!

Here are some more pictures of me eating. Forget that chicken stuff...bring on the vegetables. I LOVE my peas!!! I love them SO much that mommy can't get them to my mouth fast enough. So I think that I have to help her. I try to tell her that I can just do it by myself but she doesn't believe me. So I try to just show her. I just grab the spoon right from her hand and put it in my mouth...but what is on the spoon doesn't all make it to my mouth. This time when we were eating peas it went in my hair, and on my face, and on my hands, and on my tray. Then I thought that since it was on my tray I might as well play with it!! Green peas are REALLY fun to play with on a blue tray. You can swoosh them all around, and they are really slippery, and they make a really big mess for mommy to clean up! Well...the dogs help too!!!

Mommy keeps telling me that in a few more weeks I get to meet the last of my uncles...Uncle Ben!! I am very excited for that. And I get to see my cousin Jacob again. Maybe he will like me a little more this time and want to play with me now that I am bigger!

Well sorry it took so long for mommy to post this...I will try to keep on her case to post more often!!!

Lots of Love!!

Chicken & Gravy...WHAT

So my GI doctor told mommy that she can start giving me meats and veggies. So mommy went shopping today and got me some chicken & gravy, turkey & gravy & beef & gravy. I thought that maybe I would try the chicken first...sounds like it would be good right?!

Well when mommy smelled it and made that awful face I was already prepared for something pretty bad...but holy cow!! This was really bad! Here is a video of my trying to eat my chicken...

Here are some more pictures of my new favorite toy...my baby grand piano! I LOVE to play songs for mommy and daddy, and flip my music pages.

Well Uncle Micky comes in on Friday night for the 4th of July party. I am SO excited to see him again!! Can't wait to see everyone this weekend (Just wish Auntie Erin, Uncle Ben & Jake could come too) :o)

I'm a Sailor - I Sail!

So last night, Mommy skipped out of work a little early and met Daddy, Gramma JoJo and I down at the small boat harbor. We got to take the boat out for my first boat ride! It was so much fun. The weather was beautiful. Daddy bought me a little infant life vest...even smaller than the one he bought when Jacob was home a couple of summers ago! It was so comfortable I slept the first couple of hours I was wearing it!
Here is a picture of me and mommy after I woke up.
And here is a picture of me on Gramma JoJo's lap.

I had lots of fun when daddy was driving back. It was kind of bumpy. I held onto mommy REALLY tight. Mommy was kind of freaking out a little bit, but I was laughing really hard and smiling a lot and thought it was SO fun!

Tomorrow morning mommy, daddy and I are going to meet with the ladies at Color Your World. Mommy tells me that they might be my new daycare. Mommy is really sad about it - but I think that it might be fun to have lots of people to play with during the day when she has to go to work! Mommy and daddy say that they are going to go in there and "examine" every square inch of the place to make sure that it is suitable for me - and that they approve of it. I am sure that I will just smile at everyone to make sure that they will love me enough to smile back!

Well lots of love! - CJ

Growing Little Girl

Yesterday was SUCH a fun day! Mommy's friend Erika came to visit us all the way from ALASKA!!!!! Can you believe it?! It was so much fun. We got to go shopping ALL day long. We even went out to lunch - and when we were eating lunch, I saw Kelly and baby Molly. I got so tired from all of the shopping that we did that I even fell asleep playing with my toy! See...I am holding onto my fish...
Here is a picture of me playing in the grass with mommy the other night. I am starting to try to crawl a little bit so mommy tries to get me to do it all the time. But i get really frustrated with her so I just roll to my back when I get mad haha. Here I am being cute...

And here are a couple of pictures of me playing in my jumper. Boy is this toy fun! I don't quite get the point of it...that I have to bounce in it and jump up and down. But man...I have a lot of fun in it! It whinnies and makes galloping noises like a horse and I like to copy it and scream and squeal really loud (and drive mommy nuts!).

Well this weekend is fathers day so I am pretty excited to spend the weekend with my daddy and grandpas. It is pretty fun to have them around I have decided!

Lots of Love - CJ

Here is a better picture of baby Bristol. Isn't she beautiful!!! She sure does look like mommy :o)
