Walking in circles

Dec 13 - Today I woke up around 8am. Daddy came and got me from my crib since he didn't have to go into work today. Mommy fed me and I was ready to play. I had the best time playing with my activity table and all my toys. Mommy started to clean the house and Daddy was playing on his computer so I kept myself occupied.

I got a nice surprise when Grandmommy came to visit. She is good at surprising me with visits. She came to wrap some of her Christmas presents and leave them at our house and also to just spend some time with me. After she was done wrapping presents she played with me for a little while. She bounced me on her legs and sang to me. Then everyone ate lunch and Mommy nursed me to sleep. I slept for a long time. When I woke up I was ready for my second solid meal of the day. Grandmommy fed me. I got a little messy today. I showed her my new game while I am in the high chair. I rock back and forth until Mommy says "Freeze!" Then I stop and take a bite and start rocking again. Grandmommy thought that was funny.

I hung out with them for a little while longer until it was time for all of us to leave. Grandmommy was heading to Granddaddy's school so she said goodbye and gave me a kiss for her and one for Granddaddy. Mommy and I got in the van and went to the dump and then the grocery store. I was really good in the store and held a couple of coupons for Mommy. I, of course, tore them up. Ok, so I am not the best coupon holder. But I did really well while Mommy pushed me all around the store. I also flirted big time with the checkout girl.

When we left the store it was freezing! It was so windy and cold and the van was parked so far away. But you know what? I didn't care. I thought it was funny. The wind made me laugh. Mommy would go "Brrrrrrrrrrrr" and I would laugh. Everything was funny. Mommy put me in the van and then put the groceries in the back. We got home and Mommy took me inside and only went out to grab tonight's dinner from the van. She said that it is cold enough to leave the rest outside.

I played the rest of the evening. Daddy got home from school and they sat and had dinner. I was cruising along the tv stand and then walked from the tv stand toward the activity table and then turned and headed back to the tv stand. When I got back to the tv stand Mommy and Daddy both started cheering and clapping. I didn't even know they were looking at me. I got so excited that I started to walk again but then fell down. I was happy that I made them so happy. If I keep getting that reaction I am going to have to walk more.

It wasn't too long after that and it was time for bed. I was in bed at 9:30pm.
