February, 2002 (Month 9)(images from August 7 to September 5)


I'm 8 months old, and now the learning is happening daily.  Just in the last few weeks, I've started crawling (and can now crawl very quickly), I've picked up quite a few words (Mama, More ("Muh"), Dada ("BaBa"), Cat/Dog ("Bwa"), Hi ("Ha")...and there's even been unconfirmed reports of a Grandpa ("GuhPa").  I can pull myself up onto the coffee table with ease, and if you talk to me, I'll talk back (my favorite sound is kind of a cough, "Augh Augh Augh").  I'm eating everything in sight (Mommy and Daddy won't give me anything with sugar yet, though), and I'm starting to move out of the "infant" range and into the "toddler" classification!  Will I walk this month?  I'm sure going to try!  SCROLL DOWN FOR NEW PICTURES, AT THE BOTTOM! (We're on week 4 now...)

And now I'm doing what I do best:  crawling! I'm so proud of myself!
So proud, that I'll stop and pose for the camera. Mmmm...feels good on my new teeth.
My hair stays messy until Mommy wakes up. OK...let's head into the kitchen.
Into the bathroom I go...don't follow me here! Yeah...you go away. I need some privacy!
I can still see you, around the corner! Here's a good "I'm tired" sequence!
After tugging my ear, I play with my mouth... ...and then I rub my eyes.
I just got this new walking toy! It's very exciting...
Now I just have to figure out how to walk! Maybe I'll start out by riding it first.
I'm doing a lot of walking in my walker. This bell gets very loud.  Trust Daddy.
Here I am crawling on a table. (?) Are you going to feed me something?
Will look cute for food. Peanut lets me pat his backside. 
More table crawling! I probably shouldn't be up here.
The family came over for the Super Bowl! Here's my Great Grandma!
She calls me a "doll". I love her! (And I'm tired.)
Here I am with Aunt Kathy and Uncle Jordan! Hey, is that Aunt Kathy's nose?
Look at me...I'm standing! I can even stand and hold Grandpa's hat.
I love my Grandma Bernie! Aunt Kathy likes to hold me.
Grandpa pretends he's a wolf! How did Grandpa know my ticklish spot?
Great Grandma sees me after a bath. And we close with the obligatory close-up.
Week 2 begins:
Let's start at the beach...mmm...sand! Look at me pose for the camera!
Baby swings are fun (normally). Mommy...hello?  Mommy?
Daddy hopes I'm not eating the sand here. Ah, here we go.  Baby swings = fun!
After the beach...I needed a bath. Poker night with the boys!
Russ...do you want lime in your Corona? Daddy...is four Aces a good hand?
Isaiah's head in interesting. Connor turned one on Saturday!
And there was a pinata...candy!  Yum! Daddy only lets me chew the wrappers.
Connor had a neat cake. Look, Mom -- two ponytails!
My hair looks funny! Standing = babyproofing the house.
I've mastered the whole "walking forward" thing. We'll finish with pictures from Sea World.
Look at me play with other children! Here's Abby, me and Natalie!
Kim (Natalie's mom) and I played. Hey...Abby come back!  
Week 3 starts here!
Truly, Daddy's little girl. Golf and computers...that's life!
Look...I'm a Web master! Let's see if I can twist Mommy's head off!
One French fry isn't enough! What...you want some of this?
Here's Week 4!!
Let's start on the lawn...what's this?  A leaf? Hmm...looks pretty interesting...
Maybe if I put it in my mouth... Mmm!  Pretty good!
Just kidding!  Mommy didn't let me eat the leaf! Here I am with a spoon on the rug.
And here I am STANDING with the spoon on the rug. Daddy's jumping up and down right now.
But I like to stand on my safari thing all the time. Although sometimes I sit on it...
...and sometimes I just push the buttons. On the bed, in the sunlight!
Daddy's eye drops...my favorite toy! What's that?  A camera?  Then I'll pose...
Wait, let me take that shot one more time. Take a picture of me in action!
Here I am standing around the house... ...I like to do it alot.
OK...now we're out on the deck, in the sun. It's bright out here, Mommy!
I'm tall, and my hair is funny...so what? Daddy...is that you up there?
Now we're at the park on the beach. I love it here! I can play on the jungle gym...
Watch me hold on! I can go down the slide...
Mommy doesn't really need to hold on... ...but it's still fun, either way!
I can watch the birds... Hey, look at that bird!
I can play on the swing... I can stand in the sand...
Or we can just hang out as a family. It's Great Grandma's 90th birthday!
She thinks "I'm a doll"! Here, I'll blow that out for you.
Aunt Kat and Unky Jay were there too! Still not so sure about Grandpa...
...but I'll wave to Grandma every time! And I'm always happy in Mommy's arms.
HAPPY 90th birthday,  Great Grandma!
