Aug 31 - This morning when Mommy came to get me from my crib I showed her that I am learning. I put my hands on the bars of the crib and started to lift. I only lifted my butt a little off the mattress but Mommy saw that I have set a new goal. While she was watching me she also noticed that when I lose my balance and start to fall, I am now starting to reach out to catch myself. She told me that I have good reflexes.
Mommy thought about going out today and doing a few things but the later it got the more Mommy decided that we should be home when Daddy gets home since I didn't get to see him yesterday. I did the regular stuff - playing, crawling, napping, etc. I practiced on the toy box again and Mommy noticed that I am already standing on my whole foot more as opposed to standing on my tippy-toes or even on the side of my foot. A little later Mommy took me back to my room, set me in my crib again with a few toys and I played a little. But then I remembered my goal. So I scooted over to the bars and UP I went. All by myself I stood up in my crib! Hurray! Mommy was so proud.
As soon as Daddy got home we took him into my room and I showed him what I learned. He was amazed! He and I got to have some guy time together and he told me that he missed me yesterday.
Mommy gave me a new fruit today. I got to try pears and wow are they so good. So much better than bananas.
Then we got a couple of visitors. First, the gutter guys came. We got new gutters installed on our house. The dogs didn't like them. Then Grandma stopped by on her way home from work. She brought me the coolest thing ever. Her name is Sophie and she is a teething giraffe. I love her.
Later in the evening Mommy was trying to read her newspaper from the county but Apollo and I had other plans. She lost.
All and all, it was a good day.
