Check out my moves!

So I am now an expert at rolling over! At least from my back to my tummy:) I love it! No more "back" time for me! Plus it makes it a lot easier to grab my toys and play with them! It's great cause now I can sleep on my tummy, I really like that.




So just an update on what else I'm doing...I really like to stick out my tongue! And laugh, A LOT! Here's a picture of me laughing at Daddy...

I'm also talking a lot more, guess I have stuff to say! Here's a little video of me and Daddy having a good nite discussion. You might have to turn up your volume, I was a little sleepy:)





I really like to stand up too...with help from Mommy and Daddy!


So we're doing really well! Daycare is even more fun, all of the big kids come and say hi when I get there. We're just doing a lot of family stuff! Hope everyone is doing great!

Beach Daze!

Another fun week! I saw my friend Connor on Friday! I got some hugs from an older man (he's 18 months).
Then on Saturday we went to the beach with a bunch of friends. Marie, Olivier, Abbie, Logan, Kristopher and Ella all came with us. Mommy says that I should stay out of the sun, but I still had a good time hanging out in a tent. This is me in my "Champion" pose - Daddy and I play a game where we raise the roof and I giggle.
Here's the whole family in the tent on the beach. Check out dad's funny hat.

Here I am on my play mat. As you can tell, I have mastered tummy time. And since I'm rolling from my back to my front, I get to choose to have tummy time whenever I like - which is pretty much anytime I'm on my own. Ms. Renu at school says that I'm going to be crawling really soon!
On Sunday my grandparents, Bubbie and Zaide came out to visit. My folks said that we met them for lunch first, but I guess I slept through that part. Dad and Zadie even played Wii - which was fun to watch.

Hot Air Balloons and Guess What? Rolling Over!

So our week ended better than it started! :)



My first week at daycare was alright, except for the stomach bug I got! Wednesday night I got sick, so Daddy stayed home Thursday to take care of me. Then Friday Mommy got sick, and we were all set to go to Reno for the weekend! Mommy managed to make it up to Reno that night, and we checked into our hotel. My first hotel! We stayed at the Atlantis, so Mommy and I could sleep while Daddy gambled. Here is a picture of me in my first hotel room!




Saturday morning we got up and went to see the hot air balloons setting up. I decided to sleep through it, especially while it was still dark. Mommy and Daddy said it was really cool, it started with the dawn patrol. They "glow" and fly up into the dark sky! Here is a great picture:


After the dawn patrol took off, the rest of the balloons start setting up. About 7:30 am, they all take off and it's called the Mass Ascention. I decided to wake up for that part, cause it was looking pretty neat! There was so much to look at, and lots of pretty colors to watch! The balloons were set up RIGHT IN FRONT OF US! Daddy said some day we might go up in a hot air balloon. (Mommy said we can go without her!)


Afterwards we went back to the hotel and napped, Daddy wasn't feeling so well. Then we went back to Aunty Sheri's house to hang out for the day. We had BBQ by the pool and Daddy went swimming. Sunday we had breakfast at Aunty Sheri's and then drove back home!

While we were up there, Aunty Sheri & Aunty Lori were trying to teach me how to roll over. Then when we got home Sunday afternoon, and while I was hanging out on my play mat, I decided to try this rolling over thing that everyone has been asking about! It was fun! I rolled over from my back to my stomach! My Aunties will be so proud!
Back to daycare tomorrow, since I'm feeling so much better!

First Day at Daycare...

Well I did it! I had my first day at daycare! It was a lot of fun, I really liked watching all of the other kids and getting to know everyone there. Mommy & Daddy dropped me off in the morning, and Mommy tried not to cry. (But she ended up crying!) I took a couple naps, ate a little bit, and played a lot! They have all kinds of new toys that I don't have at home! Plus a bunch of new friends! My teacher Miss Renu is really nice, she gives great hugs:) Mommy came by in the afternoon to pick me up, then we went home for some nice Amelia & Mommy time. So I think I will like the daycare thing!

Just wanted to post another picture...me with my doggie!

Family Portraits!

We had family portraits taken this weekend! Everyone said me and Sophie were really good. You can check out all of the pictures here:

It was my first football weekend! Go Gators and Bruins! The Gators beat Western Kentucky (I don't know who they are either) 49-3 and UCLA beat Stanford 45-17. Tonight those stinky Seminoles lost too, whoo hoo!




Me and my new friend Albert!


This weekend we had a fun long weekend. Saturday we went to a party with Daddy's friends from work. Then Sunday we had friends over for a BBQ. Well, it was supposed to be a BBQ, but the grill ran out of gas! So Mommy "grilled" in the kitchen:) My friends Marie and Olivier spent the night and we had a great time! Marie was a blast, she was saying the funniest things!

Then today we went and had portraits taken! Overall, it was a great weekend! Tomorrow is a big day for us, I start daycare. Wow! I went last week for a couple visits, and it seems pretty fun! There are three other kids in my room, Jacob and Natalie (8 months) and Zaire (6 months). My teacher's name is Miss Renu and she is really nice! I think Mommy is more scared about tomorrow than I am!
