I am officially 8
months old now, and starting to really find my voice and I let it be known what
I want now! I don't always like to be held as I am a rolling machine on the
floor! While I am not crawling yet, it will not be long until I am mobile! I
love rolling around on the floor and I can get pretty much anywhere if I set my
mind too it! I have gotten up into a crawling position, and rock back and forth,
but I am not ready just yet. (I have a feeling by next month that will be a
different story!)
Here are some fun
things that have been happening since my last update:
"BYOB...Bring your Own Baby (to Yoga
class)"
My mom and I went to
a Yoga class this past month, and it was a lot of fun, well for me anyway! The
class was about an hour long and was packed with fun and made for a good
workout! They had all the mom's do different yoga positions while holding their
babies, not as easy as it sounds! We sang songs and then worked on flexibility
to help with future crawling and walking! Here is me after the yoga class...as
you can see I love it!
Teeth
Two more are on the
way! My two bottom teeth are officially in, and now my two top teeth are making
their way through. Like last time, this means a lot of sleepless nights and lots
of snuggle time. Seriously, this whole teething thing isn't fun...for anyone!
But, we found a way to ease the pain a little, I got to try my first popsical!
While I wasn't sure what to think of this ice cold thing, I ended up really
liking it!

FIRST reaction to any kind of food!)
Reading
My favorite thing to
do on Sunday morning is to drink coffee and read the paper! Wait...I drink
formula, the adults drink the coffee! But, I do love to help read the paper!
This is what a typical Sunday morning in my house looks like! Sometimes I get so
excited about an article or something in the Target ad that I scream really loud
so everyone knows how I feel! (I am really pushing for my own remote, but I
don't think anyone is taking me seriously!)
My Best
Friend
My dog, Java, and I
have become best friends, especially when I am eating Cheerios or Puffs! But, she
loves me even when I am not eating in my highchair. She sleeps in my room every night and usually is laying right in front of my crib to protect me. She
loves running up and down the hallway and stopping right in front of me, then I
giggle and she does it again...we could do this all night long, but she usually
gets tired out after about 10 times.
Dancing
And
finally, last but not least...Introducing Donovan the Dancer! As always, I really love music, and am not starting to feel it too...I thrust my hips and jump up and down while
listening...but note that I am picky about
music. If you play a song without any techno sounds I doesn't like it! Daft Punk is currently one
of his favorite bands but I like The Final Countdown song a lot too! Here is a video of me showing off my dance
moves!
Well, that is about it for now...Until
next month!
Donovan
PS - Happy Valentine's Day!!
