Second tooth and sitting up

This morning Mommy hadn't heard a peep from me so she opened the door to my room to find me playing nice and quiet in my crib with my little white lamb. I would pick it up and shake it around so that it rattled and then I would chew on it. Mommy let the doggies and Salem come in first and they all just sat on the carpet and looked at me which made me smile. Then Mommy came in and said good morning.

I played on the floor for a long time today. I am still practicing. I started out on my little brown blanket but I guess I got cold cause I rolled and wrapped the blanket around me all by myself.

I also played with Ducky and would bit him, hold him in my mouth, and shake. Mommy said that I have been hanging around the doggies too much.

Mommy put me in my Capitals onesie. It was one of the ones I got from Ms. Shoshanna, the lady that sits in front of us at Caps games. She made it for me and it says Nicholas Six Months Old.

This afternoon Mommy and I were playing on the floor again and I went from laying down, to kneeling, to sitting up all on my own! Mommy was so proud and made such a big fuss over it, clapping and kissing me. So I did it again! And then again! Piece of cake.

Mommy and I stayed in all day, except to go get the mail. Mommy got some housework done but I didn't like that she wasn't paying attention to me then so I cried. And when she tried to put me in the swing for a nap I really lost it. But I guess she won in the end cause I did take a nap in the swing for about 40 mins or so.

I finished my green beans so I guess we will have a new veggie tomorrow.

Mommy also couldn't wait any longer and had me try on my Halloween costume just to make sure it fit. I know it is really early but I humored her and tried it on. I have to say I make one really cute elephant. I tried to crawl in it but my giant elephant feet wouldn't cooperate. The costume is a little big on me but that is a good thing since Halloween is a little less than 3 months away!

I wasn't really happy for a large portion of the day. Mommy first thought that it was just because when we spend the day at home I am more fussy cause I get bored. But at the end of the day she figured out why I was fussy. I cut my second tooth.

Before bed, I spent a lot of time just looking at Mommy. I would squeeze her hand and smile trying to tell her that I love her.
