Happy Birthday to Me!



Today is my birthday! Here is a picture of me and my nana!

Weight: About 21 pounds 5oz. I have my 1 year checkup in 2 weeks so I will give you full stats then. I also get a whole bunch of shots that day!

Skills:
Physically: My left leg issues seem to be getting better. I can walk on it again while holding on to people or objects. Still not willing to let go and walk by myself.
Verbally: I can say momma and daddy well. Hopefully more words are coming because I have a lot to say! I might not be able to talk back to you but I understand what your saying - If you ask me to drink my juice I will, if you ask me to give you an object I will.

Likes: My new room at daycare is fun. I like going through the recycle bin and pulling things out I don't want in there. Then the same old - going for walks and reading books. I also like the show "SuperWhy" on PBS

Dislikes: I dont like mommy or daddy leaving the room. I don't care about walking since I can crawl somewhere so much quicker.

New Foods since my last update: Peanut Butter & Jelly sandwich is the greatest invention ever.

Highlights of the month and what is to come: This month I stopped using bottles completely. I started wearing shoes during the day and I moved into a new classroom full of new kids and new teachers. My nana also flew to New Mexico just to visit me! Can't wait for next month.
