Recent Accomplishments

You took your first steps on June 18, 2005 at Joe and Kelli Keener's apartment, between the couch and the coffee table. Now you're offically a toddler and love to color whatever is in reach with your washable crayons. You can point out your eyes, nose, teeth, hair, hands and toes when asked to. You will even condescend to occasionally say "eye." This past weekend you sat through almost all of "Muppets In Space." Your favorite part of Bugs Bunny cartoons is the music at the beginning and the end. The biggest news is that after eighteen months, you are sleeping in your own bed! Every night we put you in your pajamas and around nine we tell you it's time for bed, and you cry (while at the same time, walking towards and climbing into your bed). Daddy and I talk to you and arrange you and your toys. We read Goodnight Moon (thanks, Carrie!) a couple of times turn off the light and leave you to your own devices. We have to check on you a few times and you cry and attempt to get out of bed, but you get right back into bed when we tell you to. Dana, your daycare provider, says you are her best behaved baby. Every day she tells me how good you have been. Your favorite book is Go, Dog, Go. (thanks, Genny) You will carry it around the house, when you want to be read to, chanting gogogogogo. It is very cute.
