Crushing

I made a new friend at day care today, her name is Leah. We have a bunch in common, including we both have a crush on the same boy, Neve. He’s got the biggest brown eyes and always looks so cute eating his yogurt in the mornings. I tried to get his attention all day, smiling and giggling. It worked too. I noticed him checking me out a few times. He even tried to sneak a peek when I was having my diaper changed. Naughty, naughty Neve. I’ve been trying to convince Leah that she is going to like Tomo. He’s one of the other infants. We actually haven’t met him yet because he’s on vacation with his parents this week, but I’m trying to limit my competition for my man. I just hope Tomo isn’t a better catch. 

All this scheming over boys makes me tired.

Who’s a cry baby?

I had a great first day at day care! There is this really fun play mat. Every time I kicked my feet the mobile started moving and playing music. That kept me entertained for hours. Everyone was really nice and a bunch of the teachers said I had the cutest chubby cheeks. I’ll take the compliment, but pinching them is where I draw the line. I’m looking forward to going back tomorrow.

Well ... I wasn’t going to mention it, but it’s bothering me. Mommy totally embarrassed me in front of everyone!!! I was playing it cool in front of my new friends smiling, laughing and squeaking. Then mommy had to go ahead and cry when she dropped me off and cry when she picked me up. How embarrassing! Geesh—pull it together mommy! Thank goodness daddy is taking me tomorrow.

Quick question

Can I bring my hands to day care? I hope so. I sure love eating them. Yum, yum, yum, yum.

Tastes like chicken.

Day care here I come

Starting Monday, I’ll be going to this place called day care when mommy goes back to work. I’m going to meet new friends and play with new toys. Plus, Annie, who babysat for me once, and who I really like, will be there. It sounds like a lot of fun to me. But, I’m a little confused. Whenever mommy tells me about it she sounds really excited at first but then ends up crying. I make all these cute faces to make her feel better, but that seems to make her cry more. Don’t be sad mommy. I met your friends at work and they seem nice. They even got me this great onesie. 

Thank you mommy's NICHQ work friends
for this great top!

Snow bummed

Mommy and me had big plans today. I was going to become famous. We were supposed to go to a modeling agency for a casting call. I’ve been looking forward to it all week. Last night we worked on my expressions. I’ve got happy, sad, mad, playful, bashful and inquisitive down cold. But, a big snow storm has us stuck inside today. What a bummer.

Welcome 2014!

Happy New Year! I’m so excited for my first New Year’s Eve. First we’re going out to dinner with our friends the Gaffins. Then, we may watch the ball drop in Times Square on TV, or maybe we’ll go to the top of our hill and I’ll see my first fireworks. There will be hats – I love hats – and streamers and lots of kissing. It all sounds so exciting. 

I was told that you are supposed to make these things called resolutions for the new year. They are things you want to do. I’ve been thinking pretty hard about mine. Here is what I came up with so far.  1. Learn how to walk   2. Learn how to talk   3. Grow hair   4. Make more friends   5. Learn how to change my own diapers – (Well, this is daddy’s one for me) J

What are your resolutions?

 

What, you want me to smile?

Ok. Here's my smile.
