Bad Baby Report

12-30-2007

Here’s a goofy "crime report" I thought about the last time I stumbled upon some of the kid’s handiwork. Yep, the kid can be a little messy at times, but then again, I think "ability to create messes reliably" is part of the "kid" job description. 

Anyway, the particular mess decribed in the above "criminal report" is totally accurate and factual. Cheerios, books, toilet paper, etc., were strewn all over the living room on this particular day. Special thanks to Wubert "I’ll Tell On My Little Sister For a Crunchie" the Siamese Cat for helping with the investigation.

Cheerios

Lucy watched her daddy eat a bowl of cheerios last night and she thought it was hilarious! He’d take a spoonful, and she’d laugh at him. Another spoon, another laugh…guess she thinks only dorks use utensils (or bottles)!

In other news, she has been practicing her motor skills and has become adept at pushing things off the table. Bottle caps, containers of pens, you name it. She is a champion stuff-pusher! She’s also been practising her vowels, esp. late at night. She can have a whole conversation in vowels, and she’s louder than Wubert.

I also have a sneaking suspicion she can move herself around more than I am aware. I set her in a chair to put on her storchy wrap (we’ve been babywearing a lot) and in the next second she was on the other side. Of course, I didn’t see it, just the outcome….Gotta keep my eye on her!
