5-1/2 months old!

My mom's not very good at keeping this blog-thing updated. Now that she's back at work, I keep hearing her say she hardly has time for anything. I don't know what she means - because she plays with me an awful lot!! We go on walks, read books, go to playgroups with other Mom's and babies. I always have so much fun with Mom!!

The weekends are my favorite when Mom's home from work and Dad doesn't work quite as much. During the week Mom and Dad leave me at home with Grandma or with Marta, my wonderful nanny. When Marta's at my house we practice speaking Spanish. I love learning a second language!

These days I'm really busy trying to roll over and sit up. Mom thinks I'll sit up before I roll over - that's how good I am at it!! I love grabbing my toes and screaming to see how loud my voice sounds. And my favorite thing to do is read books. I can read for about an hour and I give happy screams and squeals the entire time! My parents can't believe how long my attention span is for reading books!

Mom and Dad have started to give me some new foods. It's fun to have something other than milk every once in a while. I love pears and prunes. Bananas are okay. I heard I get to try some veggies this week -- I hope I'll like them!!


Loving Pears! Yum-yum!
