I Marched for Babies!

Me, my mommy, and daddy (btw, I know the proper way to say this would be "My mommy, daddy, and I...but hey I'm a baby, cut me some slack!) walked in the 2009 March of Dimes March for Babies! I was so excited to see all the people that turned out to walk for this cause. It was good to hear the stories of babies like me who were born early and to see them there with their families too!

My mommy told me that a lot of her friends (and some of our family too!) made donations that helped her exceed her fundraising goal. One of my mommy's classmates was there and she was walking with her WHOLE sorority!

The sun was shining, so it was a great day for a walk! I started out sleeping, but about 20 minutes into it, I figured I better open my eyes and check out the view. Plus my daddy kept getting my stroller caught on bumps in the concrete and I thought I was going to fall out!

During the walk, people kept coming up to my stroller and telling my mommy and daddy that I was "so cute"--whatever that means...and asking "how old is he?" I didn't mind because I like to see new faces.

My mommy said the walk was supposed to be 2 miles, but I guess it wasn't because halfway into it my daddy started saying, "This has got to be more than 2 miles." He also said, "I'm going to check this route on my GPS when I get home!" I thought that was funny, even though I don't really know what a GPS is. I think my daddy was right though because it was a long walk and by the time it was over I was REALLY hungry! But, I still had fun and hope my family can do it again next year. Maybe some of my grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends can walk with us next time and wear colorful t-shirts with my name on them like some of the other families did for their babies--I thought that was really cool!

Weekend in Milwaukee Pt. 2

On the last night of our visit to Milwaukee we went to my first baseball game, between the Milwaukee Brewers and Cincinnati Reds.

I don't know what a Brewer is and my Mommy and Daddy said I don't need to know until I am 21 and probably not even then. I wanted to fit in with the other people there so I asked if I could wear something to support the home team, and my Mommy and Daddy reluctantly agreed.

Weekend in Milwaukee Pt. 1

My Mommy and Daddy took me for my first trip, and we went to Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The first night we went to an NBA game between the Milwaukee Bucks and Oklahoma City Thunder. My Daddy says the Thunder used to be the Seattle Supersonics but I don't know what he is talking about because I don't remember any team called that. We were sitting behind the Oklahoma City bench, here is a picture of last year's NBA Rookie of the Year Kevin Durant (in the middle).


The whole drive up I had been planning on challenging him to a game of one on one but when we got to the game my Mommy had me wrapped up so comfortably in the Moby wrap that I slept through the pre-game warmups and most of the first quarter. After a while though I woke up and got kind of grouchy because they turned the speakers up too loud, so my Mommy and Daddy took me to a quieter area and we watched some of the game on a tv while I sipped on my bottle. By the fourth quarter I was ready to go back out and I watched the rest of the game from my comfortable seat on my Mommy.

Wild Bear Attack

After I get my diaper changed I get to snuggle with my Bear and talk to him. Most people probably wouldn't understand what I'm saying but he does. Don't worry, even though it looks like he is attacking me we are cool.

My Reading Chair

I wanted everyone to see one of my favorite places in my house. It is my glider in my nursery. I love, love, love to sit in it with my mommy or daddy while they read me a book. I don't always look at the pictures in the book because sometimes I just like to study my mommy or daddy's face, or look at the animals on my wall. Here is a picture of me sitting in my glider all by myself. Hey! Don't laugh...I'm growing into it!!!
