Monthly upate...13 months

This has been a busy month for me. I am really starting to enjoy moving around and exploring. I am not crawling yet, but I sure can get across the floor. I move around on my bottom mostly in the splits positions. My mommy and daddy haven't quite figured out how I do it, but they think it is pretty innovative. I love to eat big girl food now and really don't want any of that texture- less baby mush. I feed myself sometimes but it throws me off when I get yuck all over my hands, I don't really like that. I do eat lots of baby puff treats by myself though. I still only have 4 teeth and I know I have some others coming in because I seem to have all the teething "symptoms" and am fussier than normal. I love music and cant help but shake my body when music comes on. My favorite thing is to sit on my bedroom floor before bed and listen to music with my mommy and big brother. Mommy is having a hard time finding some good music though. She tried a baby disco cd.....totally lame and the Wiggles, forget about it! anyone have any suggestions for my mommy on some cool baby tunes? I really like looking at my books, though I am spending a lot of time chewing on them lately. My vocabulary is growing a little. I say "heado" (hello) and allnon (all done) cat and dog. I say lots of other stuff my family hasn't figured out yet. Everyone is always telling me how cute I am, although I have gotten a bit shy around people I don't know. We are counting the days down until summer break so my Family can be home with me all summer! 6 weeks to go. Its gonna be so great, sleep in, hang out and relax at home with my peeps! Mommy is excited because then she wont be missing out on all the great things I do throughout the day. Here are some pictures of me from the past week. My mom actually got a picture of me smiling, although I smile a lot, generally in photos I prefer to give my serious look.....hmmmm, I am pretty darn cute!
