Moe Mintum

I figured out a little while ago that if I lift my booty up in the air, I can rock myself back and forth and do a little dance. The other day, I rocked so hard, I took myself on a little trip, and the next thing I knew the whole room was spinning. After it stopped, something was holding my hands down, but I wrestled the floor monster, and the next thing I knew, I was free. I did a pushup (yeah I'm buff like that) and the world was completely upside down, and I could see all kinds of things I never saw before. Ever since, I've been trying out this little trick over and over, and now Mom and Dad had better watch out, cause I'll be four months tomorrow, and before they know it, I'll be motoring all over this spot! Check me out, flexing my muscles and my voice!

Toys!

okay, so getting older has a lot of cool benefits. I can hold my head up to watch TV now, which makes it a lot easier to see football games. I can talk to my Mom and Dad to tell them stories about my day. I sleep all night, so I get lots of rest and that gives me lots of energy. But the coolest thing about getting older is my toys! I have so many fun things that people gave me before I was even born, and now I can finally play with them. One of my favorites is my ocean mat that my Uncle Adam and Aunt Lisa gave me!

Sometimes, I play for so long that I just wear myself out.

First Rote Rip

Mom and Dad tell me a lot about the Rote Rips they used to go on, but once I came along, they couldn't really take any more. Things changed last month though, because we went to go see Nana and Granddaddy's house. I think it was really far (that's what my brother and sister told me) but we all slept the whole way. I closed my eyes in the car, and when I woke up there were huge trucks everywhere, and it kind of smelled funny. Mom gave me a bottle and then a couple big burps later, I dozed off again. When I woke up the next time, we made it to Nana and Granddaddy's house. We had a good time, met some more new people, and then it was back in the car for some more rote ripping. Emma sat next to me the whole way, and Thai kept watch in the back.

Bathroom Fun

The other day, I found a new friend in the bathroom. He's almost as cute as I am, and we were telling each other funny jokes!

I also started taking my baths in the tub, because Mommy had to take the net out of my little bathtub (I'm so big now!). She and Daddy tried to bathe me on the kitchen counter again, but I LOVE splashing, so it made a bit of a mess. Now, I get to go bananas in the water, and Mom and Dad stay mostly dry. Everybody wins!

PS. give me a listen at about 55 seconds. Time to get out of the bath!
