"Cheese!"
And here's me trying to keep every part of my skin off the scratchy grass!
The month in review:
My vocabulary continues to grow, of course. And every day Mom and Dad seem to get better at understanding my words. Current favorites: Please, help, uh-oh and no. "No" has been a favorite for a couple months now. Dad says it's getting a little annoying and I need to work more on "yes." Although both he and Mom think it's cute when Keillor is barking at the door and I say, "no!" while pointing at his bed (that's where he goes when he's in trouble).
I'm supposed to stop using my bottle for milk any time now (before I'm two for sure, says the doctor). So I only get it at meals. The rest of the time is any variety of sippy cups or my new Camelbak water bottle like Mom uses. Although I'm doing my best to boycott most of them in favor of the bottle. Raisins are my new favorite food this past month with the runner-up being the fried chicken Mom shared with me at Culver's!
My physical therapy is coming along well. Jen, my physical therapist, says she likes my progress. Especially my standing and walking (with the help of the ottoman, shopping cart, chair or anything else about my height). I'm not so good at walking while holding Mom or Dad's hands yet. That' s part of my homework for this week.
With each trip to the library we seem to get more and more real books (with paper pages) because I'm getting a lot better at enjoying the story and pictures and not trying to wrinkle or tear the pages! And if you ever walk to the library with me from my house, I can tell you which way to turn at every corner.
*If you didn't already know, Bob is the name of my stroller.
