Swing Low

I've been telling my mommy that I wanted to swing all weekend, and she just couldn't seem to understand. Finally she realized what I was trying to tell her last night. It's not my fault that I'm not the greatest at "s" sounds, and that I'm calling the swing "Swing Low". She thought I was saying window, I believe. It's just that people tend to sing "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot" to me when I'm in the swing, so I associate that song with the swing. Grown ups!

My word index

Ok, I've been asked to display all the words that I currently know. This may not be a complete list, as I learn new words every day, and some of them Mommy doesn't recognize yet.

Scroll down because the blog doesn't want to behave properly, so the word list is way down below

I have a new cousin!

My aunt Ann had her baby today. Her name is Samantha Brooke. She weighed 6 pounds and 1 ounce, and is 18 1/2 inches long. I can't wait to get to see her. Here is a link to her blog: Samantha's Blog

As for me, a couple weeks ago, I went to Carowinds for the first time. I played in the water park and rode a couple rides, like the carousel and the hot air balloons. Not sure if I like the hot air balloons. I liked the water park the best. I also saw fireworks on the 4th of July!

I'm growing bigger and stronger every day. At my last doctor visit (which was last week) I weighed 22 pounds and they measured me at 32 inches tall. I think they might have mis-measured, though. Mommy thinks I'm only 30 inches tall. I can say a lot of words, and I'm starting to put words together, like "puppy outside" and "juice gone".

Here are some pictures of me!
