Shirt Repeat

Mom made me put this picture on here today. I know I just had a photo of me in this shirt on the other day, but its Mom's favorite and she asked me to put another one on today too. Since its her Birth Month Week, apparently she gets what ever she wants, so I had no choice. She's kind of obnoxious about this whole Birthday thing, but it hasn't been too bad because everything she wants to do is fun! Mostly it has been involving eating. She told Dad that she does not want to cook this whole week because its her Birth Week! So we've seen a few delivery guys at the door in the last couple days.

Tonight is the official big kick off to the Birthday Weekend Celebrations. (These are all national holidays, so yes, these words do need to be capitalized.) Laurie is coming over to have dinner with us and play with me. I haven't seen her in a while, so I'm very excited. Maybe she can calm Mom down a bit, but I have a feeling, knowing Laurie, she's an enabler.

Crazy as a loon,

Stand By Me

I'm getting closer and closer to this walking thing. I can even take a few steps now, as long as someone is holding my arms of course. I really like standing though. If I'm cranky, all you have to do is prop me up next to the ottoman or coffee table, and I'm good to go.

I don't know for sure, but I either have a cold, or I have allergies. My nose is running, I'm coughing, and I'm very tired. Believe it or not, I've actually lost a bit my appetite the last couple days too. I love all foods, but the squash had me gagging last night. Next time Mom needs to put butter and sugar on it and I'll eat it right up.

Don't be a tattle tale,

This Is a Stick Up

Nobody move or the baby gets it! Hands up against the wall. Spread 'em.

These are some of the fun games that we play at my house. Good cop, bad cop, badder baby criminal. We're making memories. Someday we'll all laugh at the good times. Good times. Plus you can't really tell from this picture, but Mom put my jammies on backwards last night, and didn't notice until this morning. So all night I had to deal with the tag in my face. How hard can it be to put a pair of jammies on a kid?

Mind your P's and Q's,

I'm Still Standing, After All This Time

I'm practicing standing. I'm getting better. This photo looks good, but Mom is secretly holding the straps on my overalls. We're very sneaky in the Johnston house.

Not much else going on around here. Its still cold, -7 this morning, but supposed to warm up to 6 today. Wahoo. The house actually got up to 66 degrees last night. We almost all threw on bikinis. Its is funny what you get used to. Now I'm hot at school and at people's houses that actually have working furnaces. Spring can't get here soon enough.

Counting on my good fortune (and good looks),
