Bigger, Badder, and Better Things

Hey Everybody!

I Am Boy and Hear Me CHOMP!

Just wanted to update you on some new things in my life, my going ons, my whatnots, and stuff.  Did you hear that I have passed the First Stage in becoming a Big Boy?  Daddy converted my crib into a daybed!  Daddy spent 2 (maybe 3) hours working on that darn thing.  He had about two false starts (he says it's only one, but I'm pretty sure, knowing daddy, it was more) when putting the crib together.  He told me that an English major with a mathematical brain should have written the stupid instructions for the crib.  But alas, not everyone can be as awesome as my Daddy!

Mimi, Papi, Uncle Tophy, and Me!

Part of the reason for the daybed is... I've been making Great Escapes.  Like, two nights in a row I got out of my crib four times (that's an average of two per night, Daddy says...  Math genius, you see!).  Mommy would put me to bed, and within a few minutes, they'd hear a thud! and the pitter patter of my feet.  I'd then go to my bedroom door and pound the ever-loving heck out of my door.  The door -- for being a new house that only Mommy, Daddy, Me, and Puggles have lived in -- the door doesn't work all that great at being a door.  I mean, doors are supposed to stay closed, right?  Even if a person just bangs on it and does not even turn the knob, a door is supposed to stay closed, right?  Wrong!  I can now get out of my room just fine, thank you! So Daddy had to get a Child Proof Door Knob Rubber Thingy (trademarked) so that I can't get out of the room.


Really, I was kind of being a Stinker with this whole "going to bed" thing.  I mean, I used to like going to bed and just chillaxin' there, reading my books, playing with Mr. Monkey or Mr. Puppy, and giving them my Binky and pretending that they have to go Night-Night, too.  But... yeah, not so much anymore.  Daddy and Mommy had two consecutive nights in a row...  Okay, I will admit it: I was being a brat.  I know, I know!  I am super cute and very sweet at times... but other times I have my Willizilla moments.  You know, crying and carrying on, snot coming down from my nose, refusing to go to bed even though I was clearly tired and yawning and way past my bedtime.  Daddy said that one night, after Mommy put me into my Big Boy Daybed for the second (maybe even third) time, it looked like they had a Screaming Gremlin from the 9th Dimension.  Really, it was like a horror movie: Mommy put me down, I slowly climb my way out of bed, she runs for the door like all those girls do in the movie, and I just Cry-Wail -- with arms flailing all over the place -- after mom.

Last night, I was cool with going Night-Night.  Maybe it was just a phase.  Or maybe it was because Daddy did it last night (no joke) and he's awesome at stuff.

Toughest Boy Ever!

So yeah, things are going great right now.  My verbal skills are pretty much off the charts.  I can say just about anything that other people say (good stuff and naughty stuff...  cough, cough, Grandma Nancy!).  I am still doing my ABC's pretty well, and I can count (!) all the way up to 14!  With help, of course.  And I'm not too sure if I totally get the concept of numbers and stuff, but I do enjoy numbers (like Daddy, who is awesome at English, too).  Of course, the other day I was given both a cup for milk and water, and I said, "I have two cups!"  Aren't I amazing!  Colors are another thing that I'm getting used to, but the other day I said, "Red truck," and it was actually red!  I also like stuff that is "big."  Big Dog.  Big Trucks.  Big Balls.  And Big Rocks!  Uncle Geologist Tophy has been such a good influence on me!  I love going around and collecting rocks.  I have a nice rock collection that Mommy, for some reason, wants to keep outside (I think it's so she's not tempted to throw one at Daddy for his constant boasting...).

Grandma, Cousin Ronny, and Me!

Clearly, I am more focused on my goldfish crackers.

A couple more things: last weekend I got to celebrate Grandma's birthday (she says she's 29... she's so old!) at Aunt Jo and Uncle Mike's house!  Grandma took me around to collect rocks and I accidentally fell and got a big bruise on my forehead (as you can see in the picture from above).  But I'm a tough boy and didn't cry (much... okay, I may have cried just a little bit).  Cousin Ronny was also there and we got to play in his new inflatable kiddy pool that Aunt Katie and Uncle Sean brought.  I had so much fun swimming!  Which reminds me: next week I am going to Las Vegas with my Mommy's family!  I am looking forward to spending quality time with Mimi and Papi and et al.  They were at my Crib (i.e. house) a couple weeks ago along with Uncle Tophy.  We got to go the Aquarium and see lots of fish and sharks and alligators!  I also got to eat this new thing called Water-Melly (as you can tell from the pictures on top)!  Man, my entire family is just awesome and fun!

I love everyone!

Uncle Tophy: Coolest Man Ever!

Hey Folks!

Did you guys realize that my Uncle Tophy is the coolest man ever?  Last week Tophy and Augie (who is a a Doggie) came to visit me and my family!  I had the best. Time. Ever.  Tophy is just a Cool Dude, ya know?  Every time I saw Tophy, I HAD to talk to him and get his attention.  And if he was talking to someone else besides ME for whatever weird and strange reason that could be, I would constantly remind Uncle Tophy what his name was.  I would say, Tophy, Tophy, Toooe-fee, Toooooooe-feeee, Toooooooooooe-feeeeeeeeeeee!  Daddy would say something odd like, "Uncle Tophy is talking to someone else," or "Tophy wants to eat his dinner in peace," or "Tophy is not paying enough attention to Will" (I don't think he actually said that, but that's what I heard).

Uncle Tophy did have to leave us for a little while because he had to go back and see Salsa, I mean, Alyssa (I could've sworn it was Aunt "Salsa," or at least that's how I pronounced her name), and go back to Work in Indy, even though he was doing Work in Cincy.  Really, Uncle Tophy, you need to make up your mind and stay here with us!  You can bring Salyssa, too!  After Uncle Tophy left, I was kind of bummed out.  Every morning I would wake up and say, Tophy? Tophy? Tophy? Augie? Augie?  Mommy and Daddy assured me that Tophy will come visit again.  I am skeptical about it, but I don't know what skeptical means, so I guess I'll just deal with it.

Did you ever realize that life is all about just dealin' with stuff that you don't want to deal with?  Ya know?  Like, people telling you "no" and people not paying enough attention to you, and getting boogers, and having your friends at daycare bite you on your arm, getting more boogers, being poopy at odd times, having your Mommy tell you to do something that you do NOT want to do at THAT time, going to bed, being really tired and not wanting to go to bed, Lola and/or Bella stealing your food, being told no some more, wanting something immediately and having to wait more than 5.7 seconds before I can have it, more boogs, and just some really bizarre stuff.  Ya know?  I am also starting to say "No" a lot, and "yeah."  And usually at the most appropriate (or inappropriate) times.

Anyway, as for other news of Will's World, I got to celebrate Mother's Part 2: The Love of Gan-Ma Nancy with Daddy's side of the family.  I got to have lots of Cousin Ron and Papa and Aunt Jo and Gan-Ma and Papa.  I love going over Gan-Ma's house because I get to do Yard Work!  Yard Work is so much, it should be criminal.  I get to pick up a rake and rake leaves and rocks.  We also have a lawn-mower just for me.  It blows bubbles all over the place and I push it around and mow Gan-Ma's sidewalk.  Let me tell ya', that's the best manicured sidewalk on the street!

Also last Sunday, I got to Indy to see my friend Ramona, her brand new two-month-old sister Addie, and their parents Aaron and Lynn.  It was a great time!  She has a nice sandbox and a swing set!  I did get a little confused when I was there.  I mistakenly kept calling Aaron "Ramona." Woops!  Silly me!  Mommy and Daddy kept saying, "We're going to Ramona's house."  What was I supposed to think?!  Oh well, a good time was had by all, and that's all that matters!

Well, I hope all is well with everyone.  Below is a video that Daddy taped of me doing some crazy stuff.  And there's a Grande Finale that is quite... "awesome"...

Mine!

Howdy Folks!


How's everyone doing?  There have been some exciting times in the Life and Times of William D. Jacob (doesn't that sound like a future lawyer's name?  Don't tell Mommy that).  I got to celebrate this awesome Holiday called Easter.  I can't really tell the difference between Easter and Christmas right now, because at both Holidays I get some cool new toys and I get to eats lots of Candy!  Did you see that yummy marshmallow Peep that I am about to chomp on above?  Apparently, my first name was "Peep" when I was living in my Mommy's tummy!  And now I am eating my former name!  Is that some symbolically cool stuff or what?  My Daddy, who's an English teacher, is so proud!  (That's him in the background, if you can't see through my ginmormous head)

Like I said, I got some cool new toys from the Easter Bunny, and one of them was this newfangled thing called a Sandbox.  Apparently this is a Super Sandbox because it also has a Water Slide.  It's very cool and I love it!  I want to play in it almost every day!  Mommy and Daddy love how I track all this sand inside after I play.  They get bored a lot, and they need more things to clean, because their new house doesn't somehow get dirty enough on its own.

Oh, and in other news, I am somehow getting cuter!  No, I am not getting a complex or anything.  I mean, I wish I knew what a Complex was, and why it's so complex (a pun!  I am just a chip off the English teacher's blockhead!), but we just went out to eat this Saturday and a random Older Lady came up to my Mommy and Daddy just to tell them how much fun she had watching me eat.  I mean, doesn't every 19-month-old love to eat salsa by using his tortilla chip as a shovel?  The chip is just an accessory, really.  I don't really eat the chip.

Speaking of which, I definitely received Uncly Tophy's love of Hot and Spicy Stuff.  One of the times that we had Salsa, it was much hotter than it usually was, and I was just shoveling it in like it was my job (really, this is the only job that I do have now-a-days with this economy, you know?).  But IT WAS HOT.  Like, SPICY HOT.  Did I cry?  Yes.  But did this stop me?  No.  I just kept asking for more milk.  I tell ya', I like spicy stuff so much, I'm willing to cry over it.

This past weekend Mommy, Daddy, and I went to the Newport Aquarium!  I got to see lots and lots of different kinds of Fish: Blue Glow-y Thingys (Daddy says he also teaches Latin, hence the Latin nomen), Turtles, a Giant Bleepin Spider Crab that Can Live up To a Hundred Years Old and Is Not Scary at All but Totally Awesome (really, it was cool and I liked it), Mike the Alligator who's like 15 feet tall and totally awesome (but not quite as awesome as the aforementioned Spider Crab), Sharks (!), and, as you can see in the picture, I got to hang out with some Penguins!  Those are really fake Penguins, if you can't tell, but I did see a whole aquarium full of Penguins do some really cool Penguin Stuff like swim and waddle around and swim some more.  It was really neat.

Last but not least, I am really impressing my Mommy and Daddy with how smart I am.  First off, "Dadda" and "Momma" is now so passe for me.  Daddy has also noticed how I am using these things called "modifiers" (did I mention that Daddy is an English nerd?) like "a" and "the."  The newest thing I like to say?  MINE!  Sometimes I use it as a joke.  Sometimes I am really serious that something is MINE!   It's tough to tell which one is which, because I am such a Little Devil.  Oh, and the coolest thing of all?  I am WELL on my way to reciting my ABC's.  Yes, you read that correctly.  I LOVE singing the ABC Song.  I have the cadence down fairly well.  My pronunciation of the letters isn't 100 percent clear, but I am pretty gosh darn close.  And I know when to say certain letters like... PPPPPPPPP!  And... VVVVVVVVV!   And.... ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!  As you can tell, I have lots of fun with it.

Well, I can't believe I wrote so much and it's waaaaaay past my bedtime.  I hope all is well with everyone!

Good night!

Willzilla!

Fee, Fi, Fo, Fum!

I smell the Blood of Giant William!

Hi Folks! It's been too long since the last time we have conversed. Well, let me just tell you that life has been just remarkable. I have grown so much. I am now in the 95th percentile in both height (38 inches... Dada thinks they may have mismeasured me because me being over 3 feet tall seems a little much, but I think Dada is wrong because I am that tall and awesome) and weight (34 lbs... which cannot and will not be disputed... just try and lift me. I dare you!). I am so big and huge that I like to throw my weight around and destroy anything that I can destroy, especially blocks and this thing called a train set... or as I call it: Demolition Set. Cousin Ron likes to refer to me as Willizilla... which must be some totally awesome creature.

I am also learning so many new and cool things. It's ridiculous. I am at a point now where I can repeat almost anything that Mama or Dada say. I can even say complicated words like "medicine" and "doctor." I love to sing songs and listen to music. I love my harmonica and flute that Grandma Nancy gave me. They're awesomely noisy. My favorite things to sing are the "Itsy Bitsy Spider," "Ba Ba Black Sheep," "ABC Song," and "Wheels on the Bus." My Aunt Jo even got me my own toy bus! I love these songs so much! Just the other day, I started sing "ABC" and I got all the way to "E." How awesome am I, really? I mean, I don't want to brag, but, okay, I am going to brag. I am THE SMARTEST TODDLER EVER.

I also love my animals and cars. Whenever I see a spider, shark, or a bus I always have to point them out. Mama taught me that Sharks go "Da-duh, da-duh," and I put my hand on top of my head to imitate a fin (okay, my "fin" goes more to the side of my head, instead of the top, but I'm sure there are some cool sharks who wear their fins on the side of their head, you know?). I love to see snakes, lions, and tigers because they make the coolest sounds ever.

Speaking of cool things, did you know that I get to spend my Monday's at Papa and Grandma Nancy's? Whenever I go to Grandma's house, I have one mission and one mission only: To Wake Papa Up. Papa is Retired from Teaching, which Dad is totally jealous of but yet lightyears away. And Papa seems to want to spend his retirement years sleeping. If someone even mentions Papa, I start to make snoring sounds because I think Papa is always sleeping when I don't see him. Papa, don't your realize that I'm coming over, and you have to get up early so we can play cars?! Which I love doing! I like to take the cars and go "Room room! Beep beep!" and drive the cars over everything, including Papa. In addition to Papa, the other cool things at Grandma's house is their dog Bridey and Grandma herself! I get to hang out with Grandma Nancy and we watch the "spider" and "bus" videos on Papa's computer. Over and over and OVER again, and she loooooves doing that. Grandma also reads books with me and takes me outside.

"Outside" is my new thing now, too. Now that it has gotten warmer out, I love to go outside all the time. Whenever someone even thinks about saying outside, I immediately say "outside" in hopes of being taken out there. Dada and I have gone on adventures in our Neighborhood, Which is Outside. It was great fun! We first walked around our Fence in the Back Yard, but we had to be careful of the Dog Poop Bombs that Dada swears he picks up all the time, but somehow these Dog Poop Bombs appear everywhere and anywhere. They are gross. Anyway, we like to go to the fence and put our hands on it like we are in jail. Dada will say, "Help me! Get me out of here!" And I will say the exact same thing! I am so gosh darn smart, it's crazy. Dada doesn't like to brag at all about my smartness, but SOMEONE has to declare that I'm a flippin' genius.

Anyway, back to the outside, which is my new thang now, Dada and I went on a spectacular journey like they did in the Lord of the Rings. Our adventure was called There and Back Again: Up and Down our Neighborhood. So get this, I hold Dada's hand and we walk allll the way to the top of the hill in our Neighborhood, and then we walk allllll the way back down to our house. We waved to so many people, it was awesome! I also kept asking Dada "what's that" over and over and over again, because I am such a curious little bugger. I want to know everything!

You know, my family loves the Outside so much that we walked this thing called a 5K in downtown Cincinnati. Here's a great picture of me and Mama!

The other cool and happening thing that's going on with my life is that we have Skype! Skype is such a cool invention. I get to see my Mimi and Papi even though they live all the way over in this land called "Peoria, Illinois." This gives me a chance to release my Inner Id with Papi and we say "Blahhhhh" together while holding out our tongues. Tons of fun! Skype also lets me see Aunt Katie and Cousin Ron; and I even get to see Grandma Nancy on days that are not Mondays! It's amazing, this technology thing!

Below are some videos of me saying my name, playing the harmonica, and saying "Blaaahhh" with Papi!

Hope all is well with everyone!

Names, Sharks, and Spiders

Harmonica Will!

Christmas 2011

Howdy folks!

Wow, did you guys know about this thing called "Christmas"? Apparently they have it every year. You give each other presents and you get to see your family! It's a really awesome time! I don't know what is wrong with me, but I totally forgot about last year's Christmas. But that's okay! Now, in addition to all of the gift giving, seeing family, and tons and tons of cookies, there's this guy... His name is "Santa Clause." Three words for you: Scariest. Man. Ever. Just look at my face below.

Dude, totally scary. But then... I found out that... HE GIVES PRESENTS. He is so not the scariest man ever. In fact, he's the MOST AWESOMEST MAN EVER.

Oh man, every year, EVERY year, he just gives you presents. That's it! I mean, you have to be a good boy or some stuff like that, but I don't think Santa could ever refuse a cute little guy like me. I mean, seriously, have you seen my blue blue eyes?

So yeah, Christmas was Super Sweet and I got a lot of really cool presents, like a rocking chair from my Grandma Nancy and Papa; and I also got this play tent from Papi and Mimi (who's name is really Kathy, which I like to say when Papi says it... I don't quite get why she has two names. Isn't one good enough? It's fun to say both, though). But the biggest Christmas gift that I received is a brand new house from my Mommy and Daddy! They even bought a fence to go along with the house. Mommy and Daddy are so nice and thoughtful. They really didn't have to give me a whole new house... even though I do deserve it! And it's just for being cute.

Mommy and daddy are still in the process of unpacking, and they still need to get all of the stuff out of their old house, even though it's almost done. Speaking of which, if you know of anyone who would like to buy a cute ranch house with new hardwood floors, nice neighbors, please contact Mommy or Daddy!

And finally, I am Progressing like crazy. I'm only 15 months now, but I'm just rocking it with the Progressing. To wit: I can say so many different words now, it's ridiculous. It's also hard to keep track of all the words that I know for Mommy and Daddy. Just this past weekend, Papi taught me to say "turtle." At my new daycare I learned the names of almost all of my friends there, except ironically Jacob, but I think that'll be easy to learn. My imagination and cognitive skills are just so awesome now. I was pretending to be a chef the other day because I love food! When people ask me where somebody is and I don't know, I hold my hands out to show them my lack of knowledge. I am also walking really well (a little too well at times, Daddy says). Every day it's something new. In fact, I said something new yesterday, and Mommy and Daddy both could not remember what that word was. It was a Super Awesome word, I tell ya'.

Anyway, things are going great! Now if you excuse me, I have some new toys to play with, thanks to a formerly very scary man.

The Pocket Hercules: Walk this Way, Talk this Way (and We Bought a New House)

Howdy Folks!

It's been too long since my last journal entry. Lots of things have happened to the Jacob Clan since the last episode of the Days of Our Lives (like sands through an hourglass...). As you can tell, I had fun with all of my birthday toys, like the fire truck that Uncle Tophy and Aunt Alyssa gave me. I also had a lot of fun with Halloween costume, a duck! (Okay, just between you and me, it was really scratchy and not really my style. A duck? Yeah, it was cute, but I wish had something cooler... like a vampire or a werewolf... but not the ones from Twilight).

Ever since Mommy got her new job, she's been spending money like a Crazy Woman. She bought a new car, a Honda Pilot, which is Super Huge! It can hold up to four baby seats. Mom, I am expecting some siblings soon and pronto! Actually, wait. Strike that, just kidding. I like being the center of attention with everyone fawning over me. Note to Aunt Sary and Uncle Ben: Please give Bump back to the Stork when he/she comes. I'm sure h/she will be Super Cute and Lovable, but I really like all this attention!

But the biggest Purchase has been... (drum roll please) a neeeewww House!

Yes! Mommy and Daddy decided that they need a little bit more room. Actually, I was the one that really made the decision. Deborah Lane just doesn't have enough room for me and all my toys. This New Place has four bedrooms! Three of which can be used for my toys! It has a huge master bedroom, and I think that should be enough space for me to grow up in. I'm not too sure where Mommy and Daddy will sleep. It does have a finished basement, which I think will be perfect for a mommy and daddy. If the Stork ever does bring me a bro or sis, we may just have to move to another place (Daddy: "Heck no, boy. We're staying here for eternity." Me: "Father, you do not realize the space that I personally need.").

This house is only 2 years old, it has a bunch of really cool features because it was used as a model for this new development (a speaker system throughout the house (Daddy is REALLY excited about that), a sprinkler system, and a nice kitchen with Don't-Take-Me-For granite tops). We have a super nice backyard. We have about half an acre of relatively flat green space and some Lovely Woods that go back Really, Really Far. The only drawback is that we can hear the highway, but it's really far off in the distance, and it's not a big deal at all. But you know what IS a big deal? We got a great price on this house! We are all very excited about this place! You should come over and see.

For me personally, I've been reaching Milestones like it's my job. I've been becoming Super Brave and taking Unassisted Walking Steps. I've taken up to a half a dozen steps on my own, but I'm still a little Wobbly and Unsure of Myself. Mom says that if I wore shoes more, then that may help me out. But shoes and socks are icky! Shoes and Socks are Will Kryptonite. As soon as they are placed on my feet, I feel this Icky Sensation. And. I. Must. Take. Them. Off! I know everyone else in civilization wears Shoes and Socks, but you have to realize that I'm so Cute, I'm not of this World (it's Krypton, really).

I've also become a Talker. Mommy and Daddy may not understand all of my Kyrptonite Language yet. They call it Babble, but these humans are not yet sophisticated enough to comprehend all of my wise sayings. I have been able to get through to these earthly creatures, though. Here are some of the things that I love to say:

- Apple (I can correctly ID apples and point at them!)

- Ba Ba (for bottle, but on Krypton it's a Ba Ba... Silly Humans)

- Ball

- BA-lloon (this is the correct pronunciation of "balloon" on Krypton... Oh, and BA-lloons are anti-Kryptonite, because they are only the Greatest Creation Ever Known to Man (I really love BA-lloons.... When I went to visit Dad at his Work, I didn't even notice that he was there... because of the BA-lloons!)).

- I got it! (I get lots of things)

- Lola!

- Bella! (I say Lola more often than Bella, but on Krypton all dogs are referred to as "Lolas," thus Grandma's dog is a "Lola"... Silly Daddy, trying to correct me...).

- Room, room! (I say this when I see a car... I can pronounce the "K" sound, but I don't see it necessary to say the whole word for "car").

- Mom-meeeee (especially when I'm hungry and want something good for my tummy).

- I also make noises that Daddy says sound like The Predator.

I am also showing my Super Strength. Mommy and Daddy call me Pocket Hercules. These strange rays from the Sun are giving me an inordinate amount of strength... Or it may be from this magical earth food called GoGurt (this is my pronunciation of it). It contains this SuperNatural ingredient called Fourteen Grams of Protein. I can now push aside the Ottoman with ease. Mommy and Daddy like to use the Ottoman as a barrier to the Kitchen, but with My Super Strength, I can push it aside with just one arm now. They tell me no, but I look at them, pause for a second, give them my Mischievous Smile, and then I go for it! I can be a little stinker at times. But on Krypton... that's just Being Real, Yo.

Well Folks, I'm sorry it's been so long since the last journal. It's not easy balancing everything in life. You know, saving the world, taking naps, drinking Ba-Bas, looking cute, getting into trouble. It's a tough life, but someone has to live it.

I can't believe I'm turning 14 Months on Wednesday. Where does the time go?

I hope everyone can stop by and see our new place! I'm looking forward to the Holidays!

My First Birthday Party!

Man, am I lucky or what? Last week was my birthday, and not only did I get to have a party then, but I get two parties in two weeks! I think this may indicate that people out there like me. You really, really like me.

I like that!

On Saturday I had an awesome party at a Pumpkin Farm! It was a lot of fun! Lots of people came from all over the place just to celebrate my First Birthday! Mimi and Papi, Uncle Toph and Aunt Alyssa, Uncle Wes and Aunt Beka, Lynn and Ramona -- all of them came from Out of State to come see me! It was really nice of them! I also got to see my friend Jackson Hertlein! He's one of my friends from Daycare.

On the farm I got to go on a Hay Ride. But this Hay Ride was not any normal Hay Ride. Two horses were pulling us! These horses were huge! There was a ton of activities at this Farm, but unfortunately many of these activities were for Older Kids, like my Cousin Ron who really enjoyed it. But that's okay, because I got to have my most favorite present of all: Cupcakes!!!! I had a Birthday Cupcake last week, and this week the Birthday Cupcake tasted just as awesome as the other one! What is with these Cupcakes? They all have frosting and taste like Heaven. They are so amazing.

I also got a ton of new and awesome toys. I can't wait to bang the stuffing out of all these toys. Have I mentioned that my Grandma Nancy likes to say that I'm "All Boy"? Well, I prove this daily with my Throwing Everything that I Can and my Reckless Ways.

Speaking of being "All Boy," I went to the Doctor this week and I received my new measurements: 30.25 inches long and 27 lbs and 10 oz. That's 95th percentile in weight and 75th in height! (I need to work on the height more, to even out the weight) In addition to my growth, I am also progressing with my Standing. I can pull myself up with ease now, and I can stand all by myself for a Long Period of Time! Like, 5 or 6 seconds! I am really Progressing and mommy and daddy say that I should be Walking in no time at all!

Well, I just wanted to say Thank You to Everyone who attended my Birthday Party and for all my Presents! They were great and I will have fun playing with them!
