Learning to Jump



This footage is a couple months old, but it's already a classic. This swing used to be my Big Sis', but now it's mine and I am learning how to use my legs. I use this same motion with my legs when I swim in the pool. I look like a little guppy kicking around in the pool.

How Sad is This?

I'm thoroughly enjoying my month in the Hamptons- that is not sad at all. What I am sad about is this poor little girl with a bizarre name. It is about a little girl in New Zealand who can't handle her name because kids tease her because she is named Talula Does the Hula. Can you believe the injustice of it all? This poor girl is already scarred for life and can't even bare to tell her friends her real name for fear they will tease her. I don't understand why she doesn't just shorten it to Talula. I think that is a very pretty name. I can't believe the judge thinks that her name is in the same league as the others on the list. Who in their right mind would name their child Fish and Chips or Sex Fruit?

Playing with Maddie

My cousin Maddie and I love to play together. She enjoys crawling and and moving around the room while I prefer sitting and watching. She has a great one-armed army crawl going on right now and boy is she fast. She's also fast at taking my toys, but I'm really good at getting them back. She likes chewing on my toes which feels kind of nice. That'll probably change when she gets teeth.

Lake Balaton

I'm sure you are all wondering where my Big Sister is, and I'll tell you. She is asleep in her stroller and I get mommy and daddy all to myself! We had a great dinner overlooking Lake Balaton in Hungary and I got to eat my favorite, Chicken Paprika and dumplings, minus the chicken and dumplings of course. I'm a saucy kind of girl.

Statue on My Head

I'm in Budapest and I have a statue on my head! Pops and I are hanging out during one of our many walks around town. I am just as much of an angel in a foreign country as I am in my own. I travel really well in a stroller and am pretty good at staying up late. It was a life changing experience and I can't wait to use my passport again.

Bathing Beauty

I love my bath time so much. I still bathe in the sink, but I will be in the big tub soon. I've been practicing sitting up and my balance is getting really good. I really like to reach for things when I am in the bath. Like the faucet and the dish soap or the coffeemaker...you get the idea. I'm really active because I know that I need lots of practice to keep up with my sister.

Tummy Time

Tummy time is the bane of my existence. I just hate it. There are so many other things I'd rather be doing. I know I look like I'm enjoying tummy time in this photo, but remember, looks can be deceiving. I think I'm going to wait awhile before I crawl.
