Wow - it's been a while since I updated you on me! What have I been up to over the past couple weeks? Mainly - I'm working on getting this tooth. I've never been through this before and it seems to take a while. My first tooth is broken through, but these past few days have been pretty rough. Mommy says I've been a bit "clingy" lately. Just because I want to be held the whole time she is making my dinner - is that fair of her to say? :) I've had fevers the past few days and pretty red cheeks. Yesterday my nose started to run like crazy. Mommy thinks maybe I have more ready to poke through any day. I hope so - let's get this over with for a while! It will be nice to have teeth though - so I can bite my food. Now I still have to "gum" everything. Mommy, Daddy and I are still house hunting. We haven't found anything yet - but we keep looking!
My baby brother or sister is starting to be more active. They kick mommy - that doesn't seem very nice, but I guess I did the same thing. Mommy shows me where the baby is. Do you think if I poke in her belly button the baby will come out? She doesn't really like it when I do this - so I guess I better not. The baby will be 26 weeks tomorrow (Friday) and then at 27 weeks there will be another ultra sound to check how he/she is doing.
Daddy is getting ready for hunting. He says that when I get bigger I will get to go out in the woods with him to hunt. I wonder what that will be like? Sure seems like it would be cold to me. I hope Daddy remembers his hat and mittens.
I am now all done drinking formula and have moved on to whole milk. I have also pretty much transitioned to all table foods. I have decided vegetables are not all that bad. I really like corn and peas too now. Carrots are ok - especially when I am really hungry - and green beans are too. I still love fruits, bread, cheese and applesauce and my favorite meats are ham and turkey with chicken being one I have tried and think is OK. I've been practicing drinking milk from a cup too. I do still prefer my bottle - but mommy and daddy said I have to start giving that up.
I am still in the infant room at school. There is not enough room in the 1's room for me to move in there yet. I am ok with that though because a lot of my friends are still in the infant room too. I am actually the oldest one in there now. There were 5 November birthdays - so we are doing "bigger" kid things in our room now like art projects, eating with plates, etc. It sure is interesting.
I have a couple new favorite toys. Daddy taught me how to play drums with wooden spoons. I also found the pots and pans one night. I made a lot of noise with those - that was fun!
I hope you are all doing well! Love and Miss you all!

Grant,
Elise was the oldest in her baby room, too. Her birthday is in January, and she didn't move until she was 17 or 18 months old! By that time, she was ready to move on up! You just learn how to be more gentle with the babies, right? While you're moving around, you're also focusing on not stepping on the babies laying on the floor. :) You'll be a great big brother!
