i’m back!

hey everyone,

sorry  i was gone a few days. we had a busy week between migraines (mommy, not me) and cleaning the house for house church on wednesday. now i’m back after another migraine (i took care of mommy this time), and i have some news.

i am now: sucking my thumb, hand and whatever else i can fit in my mouth as frequently as possible. just this afternoon, i shoved monsta’s whole head in my mouth and got funky fuzzies in my mouth. i’m not gonna do that again. also, i raised my head so high up during tummy time that i freaked myself out and couldn’t calm down. i think mommy passed down her fear of heights to me. eek. something nice that i got from daddy that’s revealed itself in the last couple days, though, is my impeccable rhythm. i can now tap out the beat of my feedings on my chest! all fascinating stuff, i know

on wednesday, auntie amanda came over with mila for a while before house church and we got to hang out a little bit. i used to cry around mila when i was younger and didn’t understand that screaming in someone’s face could be construed as rude. i’ve matured, though, and tried to be a gentleman when we were sharing a spot on the couch… unfortunately, i think she remembered me from my younger days and she started sobbing uncontrollably when i tried to hold her hand. it looks like our friend liam is the only boy who can reach her right now. i’m gonna keep trying, though. we gotta be bff’s cuz our mommies are gonna make us hang out all the time anyway. gosh.

here are some pictures i like from the last few days:

trying to get a good angle on some thumbsuckin'.

got it.

i lost it because the sun came in the window AND i went too high up at exactly the same time.

just making sure mommy knows i don't like going up that high, i don't like the sun in my eyes, and i love to scream at the top of my lungs.

tummy time the way i like it: head on the ground.

grampa came over and gave me some lovin'.

i like grampa's kisses. his nose hairs tickle my cheek

and his shirt tastes delicious; a nice cotton & polyester blend.

mila as a normal, pretty little baby girl.

love you all berry much…

this is from daddy's phone. it's for mommy, but you can see, too.
