Reflections on raising someone who is probably going to change the world.

sometime I feel bad for not posting more often...

...then I remember the baby journal thing my mom had that she recently gave me to check out has about 3-4 entries per year in it up until I'm 3 and then there is about 1 entry every year or two up until about age 8 or 9, and the rest is blank. So slacking for 2 weeks as we near the end of the first year really isn't so bad. I do feel bad about not having that baby scrapbook, though.

Cassidy is growing like a weed and acquiring more words. She repeated a 3 word sentence the other day - not that she knew what it meant or anything, but it was kind of awesome.

She is still not into walking. She will stand for a few seconds, maybe do a slow squat and then plop down into a sitting position. She loves to crawl and does so often and fast. She has figured out she can go faster if she puts whatever she is holding, into her mouth instead of carrying it in her hand. She shouts out things like "ha haha ha" and "wawawawawawa" and "nanananananan." She also yells "nine!" or "nein" which makes her sound German. She is in a stage where she doesn't always like to be held. She struggles to get down so she can be free and explore. She explores electrical outlets, power cords, glass things, sharp edges and anything expensive that breaks easily. She likes to "run" (she really does have this fast crawl/trot thing going on) to the cats' food bowl and grab pieces of cat food. She then picks up the bowl which is ceramic and kind of heavy and throw it. It has, thankfully, not broken.

She enjoys her reflection, which we refer to as "little girl in the mirror" which is kind of creepy. She also enjoys black beans and bananas.
