Well, my life as a toddle has begun. I celebrated my first birthday last week. My friends and lots of grown-ups came to my house and they had presents with them. I got lots of things, many new toys and one really good thing. Elaine our neighbor had made a picture of me that my mommy liked a lot and I also think that it came out pretty good. Birthdays are wonderful, as a matter of fact I had birthdays from Saturday all the way until Thursday the 26th and that day is MY DAY. Best of all was that my mommy had made me a cake of my own with lots of whipped cream on top. What I could not really figure out was why she put a burning thing in the middle. But parents do lots of strange things I guess this was just one of them. It was a lot of singing on my birthday and I like that a lot. When grown ups sing their faces light up and they look happy. But enough said about birthdays. I am a toddler now and I can do things. I can climb down the stairway all by myself but my parents don't let me.I guess I have to outsmart them one day because I want to do my own things. Stairs are good, they can take you from down to up and then down again. I am still working on balancing my body on my legs and feet so I can take up walking as well, but I am not quite ready as of yet.
Something very scary happened at my day mommy's house the other day. She was holding Kohen, that has problems with one of his teeth and he was a little extra cranky that day, and somehow the two of them managed to pull a pan of boiling hot water from the stove. My day mommy Candy fell in the hot water and burned herself and Kohen landed luckily on top of her so he did not get burnt. Boy was I glad that I was not in the middle of it all.
I am working om my speech and I am practicing in the mornings when I wake up with a clear brain. It is hard to make words, I know how to sayt them but my tongue and my lips are not quite in sync yet. I guess that's all for now. Oh by the way be careful with clam chowder soup in a restaurant you might get food poisoning like I got, trust tme that was not at all fun.
