New Discoveries

I am not sure what it is, but I have discovered all kinds of new things! Not sure if it because I am crawling and cruising more (and I'm fast, too) or if I'm just paying closer attention, but it turns out there are some cool and some bizarre things in this crazy world.

The first thing to note is that Mommy got me this fun thing for bathtime that keeps my hiney from slipping around so much. It's wonderful! This means I can spend a little more time in the water since Mommy doesn't have to hold onto me so much. But, this has lead to something else happening....  When I get out of the tub, my fingers are all wrinkly! I don't think they stay that way because I haven't noticed them looking like that any other time. I am not sure if it is all the waves and splashin in the water make my skin turn on end or if that lil fairy godmother in the bathtub (Sissy's toy) puts a curse on my fingers or what!?  Mommy calls them raisins, which makes me nervous. I have seen the way she attacks a box of raisins. I quickly stick my own fingers in my own mouth for protection. I have seen in her mouth and she has a LOT more teeth than me. :)

I have also discovered that the tall black door in the kitchen opens up and has a lot of cool stuff inside. Sometimes, I just sit outside of it and wait for Mommy to open it. I quickly reach in and pull stuff out - ok, not stuff. It is always this mayonaise jar. And not even real mayo - that fake Miracle Whip Lite stuff. I can see right now that Mommy and I are going to have problems. She must be one of those crazy health food nuts. I'm going to have to adjust her thinking - and soon!

One other thing I am discovering is that it is super fun to walk around the table. The chairs and table legs are great for holding on to and practicing walking. I really love it when I can grab a hold of someone's piggies (usually Sissy) and give em a tickle. hee hee! One hard lesson I have had to learn is about gravity. It turns out I need a lot more practice at walking, balancing, and holding on because I fall a LOT. And, those table legs hurt. Yesterday I gave it a good feel with my face....oUcH and double oUcH!

Now I understand why Sissy is always asking to play at her park (OUR park now). Mommy took me up to the top of the tower and it is super fantabulous up there!!  There's a wheel to turn and I can hold on and look out. It's wonderful! Even Blacky likes to go up there. :) Sissy showed me how to throw the balls down the black tube and how they come out at the bottom. I like watching her run up and down the ladder after the balls. giggle. :)

I had better go discover some more new things. Mommy said something about a haircut (for Sissy, not me, thankfully!) today. I'll bet there are all kinds of things to discover on the floor of the barber shop.
