I usually love it when Daddy tickles me. Usually. Sometimes I’m just not in a tickly mood. And I let him know it.

Oof. This is a big dog. This is what it must feel like for Mommy and Daddy to hold me.

This teething thing sure is a pain…literally. Recently my teething has been getting worse and my drooling is like a constant leak. You should see how many bibs, burp cloths, and towels I soak a day. I’m always chewing on something. More often than not I’m chewing on my hand, but when Mommy and Daddy

This rolling over thing is really hard. I’ve been trying for so long to roll over but have not quite managed it. Recently, I only half-heartedly try to roll over. If I try too hard I get frustrated and upset and it’s not really worth it. So I only kind of try. Mommy and Daddy

With more control over my hands, I spend more time playing by myself. I grab my toys, chew on them, flail them around, and things like that. Mommy and Daddy love watching me play on my own. Every so often I catch them watching me and flash them a smile. But there are also other

My play mat has become more of a busy mat. I’m not sure if it can be considered play when there is so much that I just HAVE TO do. I have to play with my book, my pillow, my sea otter, my sloth, my ball, my teething leaf, my cloud and I also have

Most of the time I don’t like to take my naps on my mat. I much rather be held when I sleep, at any time of day. But every so often I can nap peacefully on my mat.

Being and baby can be exhausting, but it must be exhausting taking care of a baby too. I guess that’s why everyone says parents should sleep when the baby sleep. I assume is to get rest whenever possible. But I think it is also because it is hard to resist the soothing weight, warmth, and

Before I was even born, Mommy made me a lot of things to play with. One of those things is my little puppy. I like him a lot more than my other doggies because he is small and huggable. My larger doggies are quite large and can be intimidating. But my puppy is small, soft,

I love playing with my crinkly book, but sometimes I can get carried away. I must admit that I can get a bit violent.

Don’t I look like the head honcho sitting like that? I just emit power. The big cheese. I look like when I give an order people just hop to it. The top dog. (Please ignores the rolls of chubbiness.)

Did you know that I’m Superman? Well, I’m not really the REAL Superman, but I can be Superman if I want. All I need is Mommy’s leg lifts and then I’m Superman flying through the air. It is tons of fun, but you can imagine that carrying a 9kg+ baby on your legs can get

My face changes a lot depending on my angle. With this huge cheeks, gravity affects the shape of my face a lot. But no matter what angle you look at me, I’m pretty cute!

We went to visit Jiichan and Baachan today! Obachan (aunty) also came to visit. They were so happy to see me and really surprised at how big I grew. I was happy to see them, but it took a while to get use to their house. This is how I started off. And this is

I’ve come so close to rolling over and not finished it that Mommy and Daddy don’t really get as excited when I am on my side. It is quite common now. It is a comfortable position for me to just lounge with a good book.

My play mat came with a body pillow, which is perfect for hugging. But I’m not actually trying to hug it. I’m trying to chew on it. But try as I might, I can’t seem to find a good way to fit any part of it in my mouth. So I end up just hugging

Sometimes wake up because of a wet diaper and then fall right back asleep after its changed. I mean RIGHT AFTER. I look so peaceful sometimes that Daddy just let’s me sleep on my changing mat until I wake up or need to be fed.

Mommy and Daddy are always using these little flat bricks to take my picture. They are called iPhones. Mommy and Daddy use them for a lot o things. Besides taking pictures and videos the thing they use it for the most is to record all my pees, poops, naps, and feedings. This way they can
