blhhhhhhhhh

Some may call this a raspberry... but whatever you call it, I figured it out!!!!

swimming!

Thanks JT for this great onsie!

Today was my firtst day swimming and I am 20 weeks old. Silly Mommy was so concerned about getting me out of the pool and warmed up that she didn't get a picture though! We are invited to go back to the pool next weekend though! I love swimming! I am such a natural! I do the frog swim with my legs while Mommy holds me under my arms and pulls me around. And I splashed myself in the face a few times. Oh, it was so fun! We went with Sophia and Yvette in the heated pool! Fun fun fun!

PS. I have a runny nose.

Happy Birthday Grandmothers!!

Saturday was Yia Yia's birthday and today is Grandma's birthday!! And in the middle was Valentine's Day! Grandma is coming down from Seattle for a visit this Thursday...

And we went to San Diego this past weekend to see Yia Yia!

My first introduction to fruit!

My first Valentine's Day. I hung out with Yia Yia while Mommy and Daddy went to eat at the Fish Market. We had lots of fun together!

restful sleep

I love my toes

Today I put my foot in my mouth for the first time.

Well, I guess Mommy was right, I shouldn't be sucking on my fingers allllll the time. I got an owie on my knuckle! Yuck! Now I have to wear this bandaide and this mitten and Mommy is being serious about not letting me put it in my mouth! Geesh! But I WAAAAANT it!

my name

So for a while now I have noticed that people keep calling me something, Noah. I am starting to look when I hear that word because I think it may be something important!

Silly Mommy at Target

So, I forgot to mention this, but earlier this week Mommy and I were shopping at Target. Mommy stopped in the middle of the cleaning supplies isle to make faces and funny noises at me. I thought it was pretty great and smiled back, but then my mommy stopped and turned bright red - someone she knew saw her and came over! He he he. She was embarrassed ! It was pretty funny.

18 weeks old

I am 18 weeks old today! Mommy and I ran 2 miles today, and then the rest is fuzzy... apparently we walked another 1.1 miles while I slept. :) Well, it wasn't an organized 5K, just our own route, but we did it! Mommy's face got sooo red though! I had lots of toys with me and would grab them, but really my fingers are still my favorite toy right now.

Tonight my mommy decided to see how strong I am getting. I think I surprised her that I can use my tummy muscles to pull my self upright from laying back just a little bit, I kinda go too far though and bend right in half. But I am getting pretty strong!
