Mommy's Slow

Hello Everyone -

Sorry! Mommy has been a bit slow at posting things lately. She claims to be "busy". What do you think she does in her spare time?!?! :)

Anyway...we just wanted to catch you up on the highlights from the last week or so...

Last Thursday night we went to Stonefire Pizza with Cora, Brooke and their Mommy. It was fun going down the slides and riding in the cars!

Saturday I got to help Daddy mow the lawn in the backpack. I LOVED it! It was a lot of fun and I hope Daddy let's me help him again. I only helped mow the lawn though. When that weed wacker thing came out - I got a bit scared and went in the house. When Daddy was all done with that, I helped him blow off the driveway.

Yes - this is my best banana face. I've moved on to fruits. As of Sunday I tried bananas and now applesauce as well. I'm not so sure about fruits. Grant tells me they are really good, but I'm still getting used to them. On to pears tomorrow!

Look at me! Look at me! I'm SOOOOOO much better at sitting these days. Just this week Mommy wondering if putting me on the floor to watch a movie would entice me to brush up on my sitting skills (apparently nearly folding like a pancake after a few seconds didn't qualify as "sitting" for the baby book) :)
Well...TA DA! She should have thought of this sooner. She knows how much I love a good movie. This sitting thing is a piece of cake!

And today our friend Grant came over to play while his Mommy and Daddy went to the hospital to have a baby. He got a sister too! We had fun playing with all of my toys. We read books, played the drums and watched an Elmo movie. Mommy is really excited Grant's Mommy had a little girl. See - Grant and I are about 5.5 months apart in age and Alayna and Taylor are about 6.5 months apart in age. She thinks it will be nice to be friends with someone who has kids the same distance apart as me and Alayna. Alayna is glad she will have someone to play with too! WELCOME Baby Taylor. We can't wait to meet you!
