Despite the fact that I don't have any teeth, Mom and Dad gave me my first finger food today. I haven't quite mastered using my fingers yet. Part of the problem is that everything has to be super soft so I don't choke and that makes it hard to pick up.

Really? I get to try all this? What should I go for first?

My cat, Max, is very sick. He ate a spool of thread 2 weeks ago and had surgery to remove it. He is having a hard time recovering. My mom has been so busy taking care of him that she hasn't posted any pictures of me lately. She says she's really sorry!

Here are a couple of Max before he got sick. He likes baby food better than cat food!




Get better soon Max!

I was in charge of quality control while Mom worked in the yard today.
I inspected every blade of grass and leaf.


I tested the comfort level of the lawn from every direction and with my eyes closed.

But mostly I just watched Mom to make sure she was doing a good job planting the flowers.

Here is one of Daddy's favorite plants. It's called a bleeding heart. Isn't it neat?

I learned how to clap this weekend. I wasn't mimicking Mom or Dad, I just started doing it on my own!

I stood up in front of lots of people at church today (Mother's Day) during the Child Dedication. It was fun. I liked looking out at all the people smiling at me. I made people laugh when I tried to grab the pastor's mouth like I was hooking a fish. The sermon was on loving with all your mind and soul. It was perfect for the occasion and Mother's Day.

I had yogurt for the first time today. I LOVED it. I couldn't stop smacking my lips! It was so nice to have something other than baby food that I ate the whole entire container.

Hey Jasper, wanna play?

Short stick,

Long stick,

Jasper and I share a stick!

Why in the heck are you trying to take my stick Jasper?

Yum! Water to wash down the stick!

A bath to wash off the dirt.

And we are ready for a nap!

Jasper is a good puppy.

He kisses my feet,

cleans off my crumbs,

and checks me for dirty diapers.

The kitties don't seem to mind him either.

Although I am looking very serious in this photo, I was laughing hysterically at the time. I thought it was so funny that he was trying to eat my sleeve!

Meet Jasper, my new puppy!
