Super Duper Busy!

Hello ladies and gents-- I sincerely apologise for my lack of yammering. Life has been such a busy blur, espeically when Mama and Papa went back to work and Nanny Cat takes me practically everywhere.

I'm such a happy boy, I swear, because life is marvelous. I can easily discover new things by getting around by doing the army crawl-- as They call it. I now am trying to stand on my own and will only do so if my Mommy or Daddy is nearby. Because I KNOW what happens when you try to stand up on your own near some tough surfaces. Not funny. Although I'm starting to show some courage by trying to climb on my Parent's shelves and the set they called Entertainment Center. It is such a fitting name because all the wires, papers, toys, games, books, movies, remotes... you name it-- are there. I caught my Parents discussing about doing something about the fun center, with urgency in their tone, before I'd be able to climb all over it. I guess they can see that I'll be everywhere soon enough :)

Here are some pictures, of course, by my Nanny Cat who happens to be the world's greatest photographer (and no, I am not being biased).



Me trying to crawl and everyone cheering me on



Jahren being silly, he thinks my head is a road. Somebody needs to teach him that it isn't.



I know he's my Cousin but I think of him as my big Brother. He always play with me and even wouldn't let me touch any plugs or wires. That shows me how much he loves me.



See? :-D



Aunty Lis gave me an apple to suck on. I think I nearly sucked out all the juice. I learned that if I bite a wee bit, juice would come out. All I had to do was to suck, suck, bite then slurp and suck suck-- a fun way to eat, sure beats those green peas jarred food. Yuck!



So far, I love chopped avocado (covered with grated teething cookies), bananas, yogurt, rice, cereal, peach, apples... sweet potatoes... well, just about anything but the disgusting green peas! But of course, how could I forget, I totally, utterly, and joyfully love my Mama's milk!!!

I've been sleeping in the crib like a big boy. Actually, my Parents 'forced' me to sleep in there because I roll all over the place and nearly gave them heart attacks because their bed is too high. At first I hated the crib but now, I love it because I get to sleep there without my Parents bugging me when they, too, roll around. Here's a picture of me as an example of how I nearly give my Parents a heart attack:



Me on their night table-- I can't help it, everything there looks intriguing.

I'm almost 8 months old. Last week methinks we had a growth spurt. I ate every 2 hours for three days/nights and now I'm so tall and a bit fuller. My Mom says she feels like she's carrying two trees at the same time. She sure knows how to flatter me.

Have a great Labor Day everyone, rest well and don't work yourselves up, not even for a tiny bit.

Mwah as my Mommy would say,
