Four ouchies in the Leg and other Stories

Finally Dad has gotten me in front of the computer again so I can share my most recent stories. So lets start!



Ugly Bib

Today Mommy needed to wash some of my clothes, including my bibs. Well she saved the worst for last. It's not really a bib - it's more like a small blanket with two strings. It is very ugly and very uncomfortable. The picture above describes my feeling about it.


Weight

I was put on a weigh machine yesterday - now I weight 12 pounds 4 ounces! Wow - I'm getting very big. The doctor said my weight was off the averages chart for a 2 month old baby! Mommy and Daddy looked very proud - but I'm the one who does all the eating - so I should get most of the credit!

Four Ouchies in the Leg

Unfortunately there was bad news yesterday Mommy and Daddy took me to this tall building I've never been to before. We went inside and Mommy and Daddy met a woman in a little office. The woman talked for a while and asked Mommy to hold me tight and Daddy to hold my legs. I thought to myself - wow what a nice woman - she is making Mommy and Daddy cuddle with me - but I was wrong, very wrong. Next the lady poked me with two *huge* metal prickers right in the leg - it hurt soooo much! My face got so red and I was not happy. I looked up at Momma because I didn't know why this lady was hurting me. Mommy's eyes had started leaking and Daddy was trying to clean her face.

I was not happy but then Mommy comforted me and I started to feel better. Soon she was cuddling me again, and Daddy was grabbing my leg again. I was thinking to myself 'Whew, I so glad all the pain is done with and Mommy and Daddy are cuddling with me again.' Unfortunately I was very wrong again. The woman poked me again in my other leg when I was looking at Mommy. It hurt so much! again! I was very not happy - my face got red again. I was crying so hard I had to take a break to catch my breath and then cry some more. Mommy eye's were still leaking.

By now I was in a very bad mood. My legs were sore and I was tired out from crying so hard. Mommy tried to comfort me but I was too upset. That lady had no right to poke me four times. Soon Mommy put me in my new baby holder and I was so tired out from all that screaming that I just fell asleep as soon as Mommy put me in it.


More eye leaks from Mommy.

While we were out yesterday Mommy was told that she couldn't visit her family. Someone has a bad thing in their body that could make me sick. Mommy was very sad she couldn't see her family, she misses them sooo much. She told daddy that she really wanted to see her family but didn't know how we could. Her eyes were leaking like when the woman poked me. Mommy looked very sad.

My new baby holder!

But that is enough sad news - now onto more happy news. Mommy and Daddy got me a baby holder. It *so* comfortable - I love it. I find it so relaxing. Below is a picture of me and mommy with it. Doesn't Mommy look good! We've already gone out a few times in it. It's so nice to feel close to Mommy.





The Chocolate Man and the Hand Talking

Mommy and Daddy took me to Metrotown recently because they wanted to take back my swing - which I didn't really like too much. After a while Mommy and Daddy got hungry so they sat down and eat. Mommy and Daddy usually hand talks, but Daddy sometimes mouth talks to the computer, but always hand talks with Mommy.

While Daddy was handing talking with Mommy a man sitting not far away - who looked like he was made of chocolate start hand talking too. He said he was from a place call feegee. He was friendly and asked Mommy all about me. Mommy then sat down with a group of other hand talkers who came later. Mommy seemed to enjoy being around other hand talkers.

Okay - I guess that's all the stories I'll write for now


Love you!!!!!!!

Smiling and Frowning

Wow - it's been such a long time since Daddy gave me the chance to tell you all about my life this last while. Well all the convincing has paid off! Here are some of my stories!

Smiles

About a week about I found about this amazing trick for making Mommy and Daddy happy. I make the corners of my mouth move up and I squint my eyes. Soon after I do this Mommy and Daddy to the same, and they tell me how cute I am! What an amazing effect this smile thingy can do. At the moment I think it is Mommy and Daddy's favorite thing to look at.

I only like to show off my smile when I'm not hungry or tired, otherwise no smile for Momma and Daddy.

Frowns

Unfortunately Daddy and me have been making frowny faces recently because of some not very friendly people. When Daddy takes me on the bus, sometimes people won't move and make room for me and my stroller. When Daddy asks people to move sometimes they say things that Daddy isn't happy to hear. Sometimes the man who sits at the front comes back and tells people to move, but by then Daddy is already frowning.

We went downtown on Wednesday and Daddy had to take me to the train in the sky, but to get to it we needed to go down. We couldn't find an elevator, so daddy put me on a moving metal staircase and held my stroller so it wouldn't tip. Daddy heard other people saying they weren't happy because they couldn't get around him and me. A woman even pushed by us when we were almost on the bottom. Daddy looked not very happy, and said something about people not having any patience.

Daddy doesn't seem very happy taking me out in the stroller anymore. He says that all the rude people are making trips not much fun. Mommy and Daddy are thinking of getting me a new baby holder - that way I can ride on Mommy or Daddy's chest when we go out.

Sore Baby Bag

Mommy and Daddy took me over to see Hi-D a few days ago. They had to take a baby bus - so they couldn't take my stroller. Daddy tried on a wearable baby bag that I sat in. Soon both me and daddy were not happy. My legs were all crumpled up and it make me cry. I didn't like it very much and Daddy didn't look much happier. I hope if Mommy and Daddy get a new one it is much less ouchy.

Diaper Tower

Daddy and me got out a calculator and figured out that I've used over 400 diapers since I was born! Wow that's a lot. I can't take all the credit Mommy and Daddy helped to change me when I need a new one - after that I do all the hard work. Daddy said if we stacked all the diapers it would be over 17 feet tall - that's pretty neat.


Sleeping More

I have noticed recently that when it gets dark mommy and daddy like to go to sleep. For a long time I didn't mind if it was bright or dark - I would sleep when I felt like it. But I'm starting to like this dark idea. Now I will sleep for usually 5 hours. Then I'll wake up very hungry - Mommy will feed me and then I'll go back to sleep and maybe wake up in another 3 hours. By then Mommy and Daddy seem very rested and happy to have me awake so they can play with me.


Big Mall small Eating Area

Mommy and Daddy took me to Metrotown Mall a few weeks ago. We were all looking around and then I started to get hungry. So Mommy and Daddy tried to find where the baby feeding area was. They found it but it was sooooo small. Daddy did not look impressed. We went in and then two other mommies came in with their babies. It was so crowded nobody could move.

Mommy's favorite mall is Brentwood because the feeding area is so nice. Me and Mommy are so relaxed there. The room has three comfortable chairs and toys to play with, as well as another bathroom where mommy could change me if she wanted to - it was great.

Well Daddy is complaining his wrists are getting sore from holding me. So I guess I better end my story time. I will really have to remind Daddy to help me update this more often.

Love you!!!!!!
