Like Father, Like son

My Grammy sent me these photos after seeing me getting into the cabinets and toilet paper on my previous blog entry. This all looks fairly familiar to her from 32yrs ago. I guess I do look my father, poor Mommy but you be the judge.

Above is Daddy at 6months old, exploring like I like to do.


Again, Daddy at 1 year.....still doing the same thing, only now he can open the containers!!!! Woooohoooo!!!


Above is Daddy at 7months and you can see the trail of toilet paper in the background.

Just because you put Daddy at 8 months old in a walker doesn't mean he can't get to the toilet paper roll

Well, this weekend I earned a new nickname from mommy and daddy "monster". That's right! I am into everything. I do not like to sit still at all, unless you have something sweet to feed me! I crawl every where. I am pretty much unstoppable. If something is in my way, no worries I will climb over it or figure out a way to get through it. I pull up on everything. My new favorite thing is cabinet doors. I haven't quite perfected them - twice today I smashed my finger.

Tonight I decided I didn't want to eat baby food anymore. It only took me screaming 3 times before daddy realized I wasn't eating anything unless it came from his plate. I am a big boy now! No more of those smashed peas...pass on the mac n cheese!

Mommy had a great day today because she was off work. We spent the whole day playing and reading books. I kept laughing at the animal book. Those animals make some silly sounds. Ma-ma teased that she was going to get me a dog. Mommy said she better not! I don't need any pets because my babysitter and two grandma's have a dog. Oh, and mommy has a fish in her classroom that she brings home to visit me. So, we have plenty of animals!

I am approaching nine months. Mommy and daddy keep telling me "So big". I love it when they do that. I make my hands really big and clap. Clapping is one of my new favorite games! Oh, and chase. I love making my daddy crawl around on the floor and chase me. It is so funny because daddy is slow - he always tries to blame his slow pace on his knee but he is just old.

Okay, I am off to bed. I need to get some good sleep so I can grow big and strong.....

Super Bowl weekend


This past weekend was Super Bowl weekend. My Mommy was a little under the weather with a touch of Bronchitis and I developed a slight sinus infection so we did not do anything too excited.

I am getting really good at pulling myself up on everything so I am super excited to explore and get into everything. My parent tell me that I am becoming a handful. My favorite thing is to go through Mommy's pantry and tear into anything and everything.
Here is a picture of me in the middle of that

along with a video of me getting in the pantry

Here is another clip of me walking along the couch after pulling myself up

I also like to eat cookies. My Mommy gives me one every time I help her out at the store so obviously I love to go there.

Daddy tries to make me eat healthy so he gave me the orange. Notice the soccer jersey my Daddy dresses me in too.


If I'm good and eat all of my dinner, sometimes I even eat some ice cream. It is a chocolate covered banana one, yummy
