Still Half Tooth and Walking with the Walker

She still only has half a tooth. But we think that the tooth next to it is coming in. She's walking pretty well with the walker. Check out the video at her home movie page (walking video). She also stood on her own the other day. She let go of the coffee table and I don't think she realized it though. She sort of looked around and then sat on the ground. She also learned to clap last weekend. We've been trying to get her to clap and then she just did it one day. We were playing upstairs and she just clapped on her own. It's pretty cute. She also knows how to do the all done sign. (As seen here.) So when she's all done playing or eating she throws her arms in the air and we say "All Done." Now she can tell us when she's full.
She also says dada and mama and baba. That's pretty cool. And one of her favorite pasttimes now is opening drawers and taking everything out. So we clean a lot. She still loves to eat bunny pellets. We're still trying to get her off that. We thought of taking her to Poo Eaters Anonymous or PEA. Well hope you like the website and all the new stuff on it. Take care and we'll talk to you again soon.

New Blog Site

Here's Mary's New blog site. I'm going to see if I can transfer her other entries to this site. So Stay tuned. I'll try and transfer the comments too. But that will take a little longer.

Still Half Tooth

Mary's tooth still hasn't come in all the way. She's a baby with half a tooth. She's graduated from just crawling to cruising. She' holds onto things and stands up all the time. She loves to climb the stairs and she loves bath time.

With only half a tooth she can't eat real food yet. But she has tasted some. She likes salt and vinegar potato chips, lemons, limes, saurkraut, and mustard. She'd much rather eat real food than baby food, but she mostly still nurses anyway. So we have time before her teeth come in. But she'd like them in now, so she can have that german pub dinner!

Another one of her favorite pastimes is watching the bunnies. She likes to go over and pet them through the cage. Unfortunately she also likes to munch on bunny droppings. So we have to keep an eye on her.

She's sleeping through most of the night right now, but we haven't slept through the whole night yet. Naptime is still hit an miss also. If she doesn't want to take a nap, even if she's tired. She'll complain and moan and wail until I get her. But sometimes naptime is a breeze. I thought I'd try putting her on a nap schedule, so she takes a nap at the same time everyday. Wish us luck!
