Dislikes: Being told “No”.
Notes: I can walk around like it is my job. I am working on waving bye bye. I can stand up in the middle of the room without pulling up on something. I like to clap when you sing “If You’re Happy and You Know It, Clap Your Hands”.

Nicknames: Poop, Poopie
Likes: Grandpa French’s sub sandwich, juice, eggs, hot dogs, splashing in the bathtub, climbing the stairway, giving love and kisses to soft stuffed animals.
Dislikes: Being bored, not having enough food!
Notes: I have enought hair now that Mommy can put barettes in when I get dressed. I know how to put thing in a container. When I want more of something, I know how to tell people in sign language. I’m not scared at all to let go of something that I’m holding on to and taking a few steps…I just don’t like the falling-down part that happens soon after.

Likes: Mommy!, drinking from a straw, experimenting with everyone’s food (Dari-licious!), playing with food wrappers (the more crinkly, the better), peek-a-boo, waking up before 6 am.
Dislikes: The new noisy, jumpy toy that Aunt Carrie bought me (sorry Aunt Carrie).
Notes: Standing on my own like a champ (well, for a few seconds at least). I can pull up to something and walk all the way around it while holding on.

Notes: Crawling like crazy. I’m fast! Pulling up to a stand and letting go (because I have no fear!). Starting to get a little leery around strangers.
