So many milestones!

I have started to crawl forward.
I have my first tooth.
I pulled up on the crib for the first time.

All in the same week! And it was Halloween week, too. Busy busy times!
My "crawling" is still more of an army crawl, elbow-over-elbow, with my knees coming up underneath for maybe a step or two before I fall back to my tummy. But it moves me forward, and I reserve it for when I REALLY want something, like daddy's phone or mommy's keys.

Halloween was interesting, but it was more fun for big brother than for me. I was a tiger, and I got to nap in the red wagon at the Halloween party. And I got to play with uncle Hans at his house, after I ate some carrots.

I am getting more vocal, letting people know what I want. Especially when I'm eating -- if I want to switch to different food, or water, I start grunting "Uhnh! Uhnh! Uhnh!" and waving my arms in the air with really wide eyes.

When I'm done eating, I sometimes clap my hands on the spoonful of food, and that makes it fly everywhere. Then big brother laughs, and I laugh, and we make a mess.

Sometimes Mommy lets big brother feed me yogurt. We share. He gets most of it though, I get some tastes and a lot ends up on my face, but it's still fun. And sometimes I get the spoon away from him. HA!
