Teeth and other stuff

I now have nine teeth, and my tenth should be putting in an appearance sometime soon. The upper left molar is taking its own sweet time and making me cranky.

I got to see Oma today, and I played in her back yard. I really like the dirt. It feels so good in my hands, and it makes such a mess when I let go. Nicole helped me dig some up with the bulldozer toy, and then I spread it around with my hands.

I'm not so sure about the cherries, but the cantaloupe was very tasty, as were the blueberries and strawberries. I was pretty full before Mama got the corn off the cob to me, but I liked it well enough. I ate quite a few green beans as with my chicken dinner tonight. I like to eat!

No pictures, but news

Mama is bummed about the pictures not working, but said I have enough news to share:

Today I went to the doctor, was 31" tall, weighed 20# 8oz, and have a head circumference of 18 1/4". I got my TB test and another vaccination. I was screaming before the needle hit me (Mama here--he was having a tantrum and almost flung himself to the ground a couple of times) and carried on until Mama finally found a plug in the car.

Yesterday I got to go flirt with the doctor at urgent care because I succeeded in flinging myself to the ground from a chair. I'm supposed to tell you that I have not yet learned my lesson.

I have two new teeth, molars on the bottom, that are peeking through. Cutting two at once was rough and I was pretty grumpy. I had an incisor on the front that poked through but went back into hiding.

I have a new game to play with my parents. When they feed me, I turn the tables on them and pick up a piece of food to feed them. When I ran out of food, I fed Daddy pretend food. I laughed about it pretty hard.

I like my books with animals, because I like the animal sounds. I got a "Thomas" train toy on my birthday, and was making "whoo-hoo" whistle noises when playing with it. I've gotten pretty good at drinking from a straw and have had a little bit of success in eating with a spoon.

I've got to go now, but I'll try to write more soon.
