Enjoying the Pretty Flowers

Mommy took me outside today to look at the pretty flowers in front of our house. Over the past month I've seen crocuses, daffodils and hyacinths popping up all over our yard. They are all so pretty and smell really good too! I love looking at all the colors!

Mommy even gave me a flower to hold...I had to check it out by tasting it...

...it didn't taste very good. Mommy said I have to be careful because some flowers are poisonous...she said she would keep me away from those flowers.
The weather is so nice again today. Mommy and I are going for another walk. Yay! I had fun yesterday when I took a walk with Daddy and Finnegan. Springtime is so much fun!

Yummy Rice Cake

Mommy gave me a rice cake yesterday...it was great to get to try something new! At first I wasn't sure what to do with it...

...then Mommy told me to EAT it!

So I put it in my mouth and started biting it. Most of it got on my clothes and didn't make it in my mouth, though. But what I did taste was good!
Mommy said that now that I'm getting so big I'll be able to try a lot of new things. That will be so much fun! I love when Mommy and Daddy feed me, but I hear I'll be able to feed myself more often...yay! But they better watch out because I like to throw things!

Spring is Here!

Today was such a nice day, so Mommy and I and some friends went for a walk. I had so much fun! It was the first time I've ever sat facing forward in my stroller...I was able to see everything while Mommy pushed me along the trail. It was really nice to not have to be all bundled up...

I hope the weather stays nice for a long time so I can go for more walks!

I Can Sit Up

I'm starting to get the hang of this whole sitting up thing...I've been able to sit up leaning forward for the last month or so. I'm getting a lot better at it now...

But I'm still a little shakey...

Don't worry...I'm okay!
Daddy and Mommy are still waiting for me to start crawling...they think that will happen soon. But who needs to crawl? I can already get around pretty well! Daddy and Mommy are always finding me off of my blankets and play mats and laying in the middle of the floor! It would be nice to move forward, though...right now all I can do is move backwards and roll side to side. I guess crawling would be pretty cool! Watch out Mommy and Daddy...you better keep your eyes on me!

I Love My Daddy

I found some pictures that Daddy took of me at the beginning of last month (when I was at Ian's house). He got a good close-up that Mommy really likes...she says you can see my beautiful, long eyelashes. It's funny how much I've changed since last month...I've gotten a lot more hair, and, of course, I've gotten a little bit bigger (just a little bit...I did weigh 14 pounds last week!).



Mommy took this next picture of me looking intently at Daddy. I love watching the faces he makes at me and listening to him talk and sing to me...sometimes he even gets out his guitar to play for me. I love him so much and look forward to seeing him everyday when he gets home from work.

Sure, Finnie is funny, but Daddy is the BEST!!
