Getting bigger

After a full night sleep, which was very nice for both me and Mommy, I woke up and played in my crib for a while. Mommy always does the nicest thing. When I am done playing and I call out a little, Mommy comes in and she leans over and says, "Good morning, sweetheart. Good morning, Nicky. Did you sleep well? I missed you." This always makes me smile. Then Mommy picks me up and puts me on my changing table, gives me a new diaper and lots of kisses. Then we go to the family room and we have breakfast.

Yesterday morning we played for a while then we got dressed and were heading to WalMart. But I fell asleep in the car so Mommy stopped at McDonalds and got some lunch. Then we went into WalMart. Mommy put me in the front carrier. I am starting to like being carried around that way because I am still close to Mommy but I can still look around. We got Mommy some new clothes and got a new lightbulb for my green elephant nightlight since it just burned out and it was too dark in my room. While we were in the store it started to rain really hard! We waited for the rain to lighten up and then headed to the car but then suddenly it started to pour again. Mommy was trying so hard not to have me in the rain she ran to the wrong car! It's okay Mommy, I didn't mind the rain. We got back home and saw Daddy. His friend Todd came over for a few minutes and Todd told us he was going to have a baby too! Yay, another friend. A little later this other guy came over to talk about getting a new roof put on the house. Mommy and Daddy talked to him for a while. After that it was bedtime and I went to sleep but I woke up a little later and was NOT happy. Mommy and Daddy couldn't figure out what was wrong with me. After a few failed attempts to get me back to sleep in my crib, Mommy got me to sleep in my swing. I was much happier there and Mommy slept on the couch really close to me.

When I woke up, I was fed and put back in my crib for the rest of the morning. Mommy got a little housework done and that nice lady Bridget came over to clean the rest of the house. Bridget talks to me a lot. She makes me laugh. I also showed her that I bite down hard by biting her finger. She and Mommy think that I might be teething.

A little later we headed to group. Today I weighed in at 13 lbs 3.6 oz. After I ate, I played with David and my elephant and also rolled around on the blanket. I had lots of fun.

After group, Mommy and I went to WalMart again and the grocery store really quick then home to drop off the groceries and then off to the boardwalk where we met Ms. Tara and James and Ms. Denise, Mr. Bryan, and Eleanor. I really liked the bouncing on the planks of the boardwalk. I kept talking so I could hear what it did to my voice! That made me and Mommy laugh. We also saw ducks playing on the shore. After all that, Mommy brought me home and I had dinner and went to sleep. Good night.
