Growing up.

Well, I'm nearing 11 months old now so I figured it was time to give this blogging thing a go.  I'm pretty much a genius already so I didn't think it would be too hard. 

This is me.  Everyone says I'm pretty cute.  I have to believe them- what do I know?  I'm just a baby! 

My mom wanted me to write down a few of the things I could do.  I don't know why- adults can be so pedantic sometimes.  But because I'm nice I will. I've been clapping and dancing for a while now- I do like to have a boogie.  I also love books.  When my mum or dad finishes reading a book for me I point to the bookcase and giggle to let them know one just isn't enough!  I have to admit they are a bit lacking in the plot department.  In one of them a kid goes through the whole book looking for his monkey and only finds the right one at the end.  But they have nice pictures and they taste good so what's not to like? 

I can also make the sign for "milk" which is one of my favourite things ever!  I guess you can consider it my first word since I can't really talk yet.  I'm getting there, though, and I can make some pretty amazing high pitched sounds!  Food is another one of my favourite things and since I was weaned the baby-led way it means I never had to have any yucky baby purées.  I always got to eat the good stuff that mom and dad were eating.  I'm doing pretty well now that I have 4 teeth but I like to keep the adults on their toes by changing my preferences on a daily basis! 

I'm practising my walking skills and I'm great at pulling myself up.  I've also learned how to let go- which always ends in tears.  But the cuddles that follow are nice so I just go and do it again!

Well, I can smell my dinner cooking now so I'm going to go now.  Will write more later.
