A Busy Month

This month has flown by and I realized I haven't shared any of my activities! I've had a cold, croup and an ear infection, yet I am growing at warp speed and talking up a storm. I also run at warp speed, so I keep Mom and Dad on their toes! I am really getting in to boxes of any kind...this diaper box proved to be a fun toy for about a week before it was destroyed! I liked to open and close the flaps and climb inside. I really liked it when I could find some poor soul to swing me around in it. It's like a kiddie roller coaster!
Mom thought she'd be on top of things by getting the potty chairs out and 'introducing' me to them. I know she didn't think that she'd get me potty trained, but I think it made her feel better to think we were headed in that direction. Much to her dismay, the potty chairs didn't stay in the bathrooms and they didn't stay in one piece. The engineer in me couldn't help myself, so I took them apart and hauled them all over the house. It seemed very appropriate that I would work on this one in the living room.
I do enjoy getting into things I'm not supposed to and while I usually do pretty well on my own, one day Mom had the bright idea that she'd hand me a roll of tape to occupy myself while she got a couple of things done. She said giving those preschoolers tape always worked at school... Well, I figured out how to unroll it and I got it everywhere. So, I wasted a roll of tape, but her plan worked - she got 15 minutes to do whatever it was she thought she needed to do!
Shoes are my latest passion. Looking at the closets of my family members, I know this is genetic. Here I am, testing out Dad's shoes. I like Moms shoes and Nana's too. I'm not picky!
Last week, our friends Elijah, Avelyn and Malachai came over for a swim. Yes, I said swim. We cranked up the heat in the atrium and turned it into the Great Wolf Lodge! I couldn't wait to get in, so I decided to dive in with my shirt on. Then, I decided I wanted to swim with my towel. I told you I keep Mom on her toes!

Also this month: My Kissinger cousins came to visit for a day and we had adventures! We went out to lunch and then walked the nature trail and played at the park. When we came back home, we played in my tunnel for hours! They are a fun group - I sure wish I could play with them more!

'Uncle' James had a birthday last week and when we went to his party, he let me strum on his electric guitar! It was very cool and I loved all the noise that it made. I also loved the applause from the crowd! Can I be an engineer by day and a rock star by night!?
