Nearly every day I explore around my chair. I mess around with the buckles and latches. I push the chair back. I pull on the table. I just explore around my chair. Now what should I do next?

Don’t ask me why I’m licking the underside of my table. I just do some weird things sometimes. Let’s not get hung up on it.

Even though we had a great weekend and I spent all my time with Mommy and Daddy, I had an idea that this day was coming. It is Monday, so I went to nursery school again. I have kind of come to terms with it and don’t really fight it anymore. I may not beContinue reading “10th day of nursery school”

Daddy doesn’t drop me off at school until 9. Partly because it is the starting time for new students until they get used to school life, and partly because it give Daddy and I some time to play together. But as I grow, I play on my own a lot more and Daddy just watchesContinue reading “Morning playtime before school”

I’ve got some new teeth coming in. They have been bothering me for a while and have been very itchy! These will be my first top teeth. The two center teeth are coming in slowly, but surprisingly the one next to the center left is coming in faster. That’s unusual. I thought my teeth wereContinue reading “New teeth coming in”

I know there is a way to crack these plastic easter eggs open. I know, I’ll use my head!

I like to play with bottles. They are fairly light, easy to grip, and just fun! Now I discovered that there are fizzy bottles. When you shake them the insides fizz and make cool noises. This is even more interesting than before!

Since we were at the park, I wanted to ride the rocking bug again. It was a lot of fun. But I was really nice and even gave Mommy and Daddy a turn.

I like to play with my toys and I’m usually very good at playing nicely. Sure, I can be rough with my toys sometimes, but for the most part I play with toys the way they were meant to be played with. But I am also a very curious explorer and I play with aContinue reading “Appropriate play (bead maze) and not so appropriate play (diaper pail)”

Some mornings I am very clingy. I need Mommy and I need food. Once I get fed, I’m in a much better mood.

I love my food! Food is great! Woo-hoo!

I pretty much play nonstop so I have to remind myself to take a break every so often. It is also a good time to get my diaper changed. That is, if I don’t run away and continue to play.

I tickle the ivory from time to time. I haven’t had any formal training. I’m self taught. Can you tell?

Daddy doesn’t know that I play with his video games when he isn’t watching. Shhh. Don’t tell him. *Daddy Note: Yeah, I know you play with my video games. And I’m ALWAYS watching!

Every so often I lend a hand in cleaning up instead of focusing only on making a mess. So sometimes I put my chair away. Keep in mind that the wheel locks are on while I do this. This is all brute force.
