I think I'm teething again. Those little canine teeth must be poking through. Did I have a rough night last night? I can't remember. I do remember Dada coming in late to check in on me and I was awake. I stood up by the crib side and extended my arms, quietly in the dark. He picked me up and I snuggled up for a minute. Then I nudged toward ( Read more... )

Dada was good today, and we spent lots of playtime together. We even went outside for a long walk. I was happy for most of the day, and took a long nap in the afternoon, too. I ate all my shells and cheese for dinner, and got some cookies and Os for a reward ( Read more... )

Dada spent the morning installing a new huge hard disk on the upstairs computer to store all my photos, while I hung out and played in the living room. Then, I had a short nap which made me a little edgy for the rest of the day. Fortunately, after I woke up, Reading Rainbow was on and Levar was visiting with a beekeeper. I LOVE busy bees! Bugs ( Read more... )

This morning, Teletubbies came on, and as they were popping out of the hole in the ground and counting, I said (before the TV did) "one... two... fwee". Dada was very impressed. We practice our letters and numbers with the MagneticFunDrawingBusyBeeToy[tm] and I know my W, Y, A, X, 2, 8, and zero very well. I know way more than I let on. That way ( Read more... )

Dada cleaned my magnetic drawing toy. It probably has some fancy catchy name like FunnyMagneticDrawingBusyBeeBlocks[tm], but we don't know what it is. Good thing Dada isn't in marketing, otherwise we'd be in trouble. Anyway, I played with it allllll day, pushing the button to hear the silly music, and Dada was drawing busy bees ("BUG!") on them ( Read more... )

We also visited my Polish Gramparents this afternoon. I didn't go to sleep for my nap until 2pm, so we ended up over there after 5pm. I had some cabbage rolls (without the cabbage) and after watching everyone eating their food with a fork, I asked for a spoon and fed myself mashed potatoes! All by myself.

We went grocery shopping this morning, and Dada bought me a little pumpkin to hold on to while we went around in the shopping cart. We still have the "puckin" at home, and Dada lets me play with it on occasion. We got some yummy bananas, out-of-season grapes, pears (which I think made my butt a little rashy), and kiwis (which I haven't tried yet ( Read more... )

Mama left for Korea for (almost) two weeks today. I told her I love you ("naboo") and ba-bye.

Just when I thought she couldn't get any cuter, she did. I came back from Germany to find her saying lots of new words. At this point, it would be difficult to list all the things she can say. Seems like every day, she says something new. She tries to imitate any new and interesting word she hears ( Read more... )

Here is just a few more from mid June:

• Abee-abee or awee-abee: Teletubby
  
• Now she sometimes says tubby or chubby tubby, but I don't have that recorded
  
• What does a cow say? Mmmmmm.
  
• Another meow, because it's so cute.
