5/22-5/25/09 - Memorial Weekend Fun!

Whew. What a busy weekend. I got to play with Caleb on Friday (he showed me his super cool yellow car), saw my cousin Brook play in a softball game and go to my friend Makenzie's 1st birthday party (an no she is not my girlfriend but she is very cute) and rode on mommy's shoulders on Saturday (giddy up), went to my first Rough Riders Game (minor league baseball) with Grandma and Grandpa Ek on Sunday and went swimming with mom and dad in our pool on Monday. And if that wasn't enough, I grew two more teeth on top this weekend. I'm worn out. Good thing I went back to day care today to get some rest.

5/17/09 - On the Move!

It's official! I'm on the move, crawling everyhwere. I'm still a little wobbly but, there is nothing to this. No stopping me now.

I also got my top two front teeth this month. They're not completely in just peeking through. I love to close my eyes and smile really big to show them off. Mom cracks up every time! The best thing is when I touch my top two teeth with my bottom two teeth, they make a crazy sound.

My favorite word to say is "dada". Mommy keeps trying to get me to say "mama". I try and it still comes out as "dada". I'll keep practicing, I promise mom.

I can hold my own bottle/sippy cup too, though it's still a little hard to tilt it up. If you help me I will let go and let you hold the bottle/cup. Why should I do it when you offer?!?!

The first time I fed myself I ate cheerios and then some diced carrots. Mom and dad love when i feed them too. If you come see me and open your mouth I will share my cheerios with you! :-)

4/10-4/12/09 - The Christopherson's come to Dallas/Easter Weekend

It was so great to meet Uncle Brien, Aunt Pam and my two new best buddies, Adam and Evan! What a treat for them to spend some of their spring break with me. They showed me how to rock out on Rock Band "the Wisconsin way" and play basketball on the playground. I took notes. So watch out Adam and Evan, in a couple of years I want a game!

I also did some yoga with Uncle Brien and Aunt Pam. I'm clearly in shape, but mom and dad had a rough time with it. They couldn't even get through the video. What's so hard about laying on a mat and stretching?!?
