Top 3 things I learned last week....

Okay, I've actually learned more than 3 things - like that Sadie doesn't like waking up early, she doesn't like going to bed early, and she'll yell if she doesn't get her way. Luckily, I've been able to sleep through most of it.  I think she has also learned that Mom and Dad are not taking me back to the hospital! I'm definitely staying as part of the family. So she is making the best of it by tickling my head when she feels like it while singing, "Tickle! Tickle! Tickle!" - and that makes me laugh.

But really, I've learned 3 major things in the past week.

1. I can roll over!!! Yep, on my own. Then when I'm on my belly, I do a yoga move where I spread my arms and legs wide and pretend I'm flying. The only problem with this is that I have not mastered rolling back. So I end up face down in my own drool until someone picks me up.

2. I decided yesterday to give Mom some kudos for taking care of me and anticipating my needs. I did this by looking at her straight in the eye and said, "MUM MUM MUM!!!" Then I did it this morning just to prove it wasn't an accident.

3. I also learned this teething thing takes longer than I thought. And that, my friends, is a total bummer.

A Word on Teething....

I don't like it. I understand it's a necessary part of having teeth so I can chew stuff and smile with a big toothy grin... but this kinda stinks. Now, I'm not a baby. Okay, I am... but I don't act like one. I don't cry about it. I just yell a lot. Normally, I look like this....




But after a teething spell... Mom gives me some icky tasting Baby Orajel and a bit of Baby Tylenol, and I'm like this:

Clearly, I am not pleased.


Then I take a nap. Word on the street is that I either sound like a cat purring when I'm in a good mood, and I snore when I'm not.
