I'm sorry it has been so long since you've heard from me. My mama has been busy working on a project for me....a photo book! I found the one she made for my nana and papa on my first Christmas and I LOVE it. So, she thought it would be nice for me to have another one.
At first, when I looked at the baby book I was upset because the Ollie in those pictures did not have teeth! I felt better when I saw the pictures in the end of the book where I finally had teeth.
Lately, I've really been figuring out my words. Sometimes my big people laugh at the things I say. Mimi dropped something the other day and I copied her "oh Shoot!" quickly. I've also learned most of "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star". I had an infusion on 6/26 that took almost 11 hours....on the way home I made mama and daddy laugh when I mimicked the alarm sounds and flashed my light like the fire alarms at the hospital. 7/23 my speech results came back. I am in the 11th percentile for speech, but off the charts in language. In other words I know how to structure a sentence and comprehend yours, but my words aren't clear to most other people. My daddy is working on finding a speech therapist to work with me in our house right now.
I've been really getting really good about getting my shots. I know they don't hurt too bad. Mama calls it my super juice. I've been feeling so good that I guess I'm ok with it. Usually I'll ask, "What mama doin'?" and then tell them "no tot, no tot!" But, when they don't listen, I suck it up. Nana rubs it for me sometimes and I really like the bandaids.
When daddy went golfing a few weekends ago, mama and I went to stay with Mimi. I was so excited to visit her that Nana got a video of me hopping around before daddy put me in the car. Uncle EE was there. I practiced flexing my muscles. He played with me and was lots of fun! Nana got a video of me jumping around with excitement about going to stay at Mimi's!! While I was there, Mimi taught me some cool things to say: "Pretty Mimi, Bootiful Mimi". I really wanted to go swimming so I laid down in the living room with my legs up. Mimi got the hint and took off my pants and diaper. Then I said "Twimming". I guess i was firm enough, cause she gave in and took me:) When daddy came home, I was upstairs getting ready with mama...I ran downstairs and said "Hello, Daddy, I missed you!" Then I got on my tip toes and looked at myself in the mirror over the sink. It is so fun growing so much taller!
On another visit to Mimi's recently, I covered her entire patio (and the walls) with sidewalk chalk. I've also been blowing lots of bubbles at Mimi's. I like to chase them if she or mama blows them for me. I love to swing and play outside, too!
Mimi's birthday was July 11th. Me and daddy went to surprise her and stopped at the bakery to get some of her favorites. Papa Ernie flew in and spent an hour with us. Daddy let Avery hang out with us because she hadn't been around anyone else in a long time. I was so happy to see Ave. I miss my cousins and my auntie ashley. It was a great day!
