I realize there have been three other new posts, but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to show the two girls side by side in a comparison....I'll let you guess who is who.

I don't really have an update, but since Belle and Elizabeth both posted something I thought I should too. I'm having a lot of fun at preschool. Most mornings it's hard for me to leave Mommy and Elizabeth, but I get over it pretty quickly. So far we've learned about pirates, bugs and cowboys! Plus I get to play all the time! Mommy picks me up and I am normally outside playing on the slide or the swings. I have so much fun! I do miss the other daycare I was at, but sometimes Mommy picks me up first so I get to go with her to pick up Elizabeth. So when I help pick her up I get to see all my old friends! Most of the time I run out of the car to meet them. I definitely miss my old friends, but I know I will see them soon when they come to preschool! I'm sure I'll have many more updates soon!

So I told everyone in a previous post about my new skill of crawling- well Mommy finally caught it on camera. Look how good I am! I can go even faster then this, but I only had a short distance to go to get to Mommy.
Now that I can crawl I have favorite places to visit- the electrical cords (although Mommy took them away) and the dog's water bowl! I love the water bowl. I crawl over there pretty much every morning while Mommy's getting ready and I splash around in it. It's so much fun! Lately the bowl has disappeared-I think Mommy and Daddy have taken it away. That means no more fun for me! I'm sure I will find plenty of other things to get in to.
I keep over hearing Mommy and Daddy saying how difficult it is having me crawling around. I get in to everything! I am definitely breaking their habits of leaving the door open to downstairs, and leaving things around that I can get into. I am definitely keeping them on their toes!

So some have wondered how Miss Belle has been fairing recently. Well, she has adjusted to having two kids chasing after her and she is taking comfort in the fact that she has twice the snacks to steal now. However recently she has been pretty pathetic as you can see from the picture. When we went to Iowa we had to send Belle to camp. Camp is a wonderful place that lets her play all day both inside and outside. But she ate the food that they served there instead of her own. Well since she has allergies, something in the food set her off and she started being itchy. She kept licking her feet and she licked one so bad that it got infected. Poor Belle had to go to the vet and they gave her the lovely collar! She was not pleased at all. She had medicine to take twice a day and she wasn't allowed to be inside without the collar. It was so annoying! She kept hitting the door frames, the wall, pretty much anything since she couldn't see beyond the collar.
Recently we took the collar off- mainly because we were tired of her hitting the walls, and us, but also because her foot was much better. Lesson learned- don't let Belle eat the camp food.

This is Mom here. Remember the movie a Christmas Story, and Ralphie opens up the gift from his aunt and it is a giant bunny costume.....this is my version of that.

because here I come! I can officially crawl. I've been scooting around for awhile, and doing a weird pivot twist move, but I can now officially crawl like a normal baby. Last night Mommy moved me away from a pile of papers in the office (that I was trying to eat) and I wanted to get back over there....so I crawled. Mommy was amazed, and I got to my papers. Now Mommy said that she really has to be on her game- well to me it doesn't matter. If she isn't on her game I get to have more fun! I get to play with the DVD player, the stereo, the Xbox and anything else I can get my little hands on.
Everything else in my world has been the same. I've been sick for the last month with back to back colds and now they turned into an ear infection in each ear. That's been no fun for me and Mommy, and everyone else I've been around. I've been incredibly cranky to say the least. But we did find out that I am up to a whopping 19 pounds! Maybe now that I can move I'll burn off some calories. We will see. As you can see from Morgan's post, I am now alone at daycare. It's kind of nice not being picked on all day long- plus I'm gaining seniority at day care. I'm not the youngest baby anymore. Pretty soon I'll be the boss at school.

Arrgghhhh...I a pirate! That's what I tell everyone anyway. Things here have been very busy over the last couple of weeks. I started preschool a couple of weeks early. I wasn't suppose to go until the middle of August, but a spot opened up so my friend Evan and I moved over to "the big kid house" at the end of July. Things over here are much more structured then at "the baby school". We have lessons and school during the day so we can learn about all sorts of things. Our first lesson was all about pirates! For the last two weeks we have been making a pirate outfit including a hat, scarf and eye patch. Mommy bribed me with candy so that I would put it on and show her. I decorated it all by myself! We got to color pictures of pirates too. I can't wait to see what we learn next.Preschool is pretty fun. I even went on my first field trip last week. Mommy went too. We went to a place called Best Fun which had a huge bounce house and slide inside the building. And there were lots of arcade games for us to play. Mommy and I played a lot of ski ball! There are 12 kids at my new school and I am getting to know them all. Mommy says that I am adjusting well, but I get a little sad because I miss my old daycare ladies, and my sister. The plus side is that when we get home I get Elizabeth all to myself.
I love sitting with Elizabeth on the couch at night. I'm teaching her all about Elmo, so we sit on the couch and watch Sesame Street sometimes. There are times though that I get a little rough with her- Mommy and Daddy don't like that very much. When I'm mean I have to sit in time out. I'm working on being nice all the time. I definitely miss Elizabeth during the day, but it makes our nights together that much better!
