blinded by the light

Mama is an artiste and I am her muse. If muse means "one who is blinded by the light of many camera flashes"...

9 month dr visit

Went to the doctor's this morning for my nine-month checkup. Dr. V. says I'm very cute and doing great.

Mom and Dad both went with me because mom decided to go to work late. They both thought I weigh at least 25 pounds but I proved them wrong...I'm only 22 pounds! Mom thinks maybe I usually have 3 pounds of poop in my diaper and maybe that's why they were fooled.

I am only in the 80th percentile for weight which is a good place to be, I think. Healthy but not fat. I'm still about 60th percentile for height at 28.5 inches. Got a big head, too. Am at almost 100th percentile. I think those other babies just don't watch Baby Einstein like I do - my head has got to be so big because I'm so smart, right?....right?

Read to me, please!

I have discovered the joy of books! The pictures are great, and it's lots of fun when mom and dad read to me.
'Tails' is my favorite book!








Look at the foxes' tails wag!








Eeeewww! A scratch and sniff skunk tail!











Reading by my self









Mom's showing me the baby faces book. Look at those crazy babies.











Hey, I found a book in my wagon!











Maybe if I stand here with my book long enough, someone will read it to me...

Look at my tongue!

Maybe I'm using it to smell, maybe it's too big for my mouth, maybe it's just fun...I'll never tell! Whatever the reason, I've been sticking my tongue out a lot lately. Look at my tongue!
