45, 46 & 47 Weeks

We have been quite busy lately so I apologize for the lag in posts... again! Mom and dad took a mini vacation a few weeks back and Grandma Ruth came and watched me, we had lots of Christmas parties and we celebrated my 1st real Christmas too.

New this month:

• New words - Up, Hot & Duck (I can even identify a duck... at least the rubber kind ;)
• Dancing - I am a dancing machine! I mostly twirl around with one hand on my hip and the other straight out in front of me (video to come), but sometimes I like to pace/run and then stomp my feet to the music.
• Kisses - I love to give Mommy & Daddy kisses! Especially in the morning when they let me crawl in to bed with them.
  
• I know what teeth are and I love to point Mom & Dad's when they say "teeth".
  
• I love to climb! I figured out how to climb up on the mantel of the fireplace and when Dad lets me, I like to jump off in a belly flop type fashion on to a pile of blankets.
• Kicking a ball - I am definitely destined to be a soccer player, I love to kick balls and toys.

Here are some pictures:

Taking a spin in my new Cozy Coupe. I love it! Thanks Auntie Kim

Gotta keep an eye on me... I'm sneaky and get it to all kinds of trouble... hehe!

While this isn't my best performance of unwrapping gifts it's all Mom managed to get on tape. Apparently she needs some lessons on how to use a video camera.
