Adventurous Soul

Momma says I am an adventurous soul.  I am not sure what that means, all I know is I just LOVE to move!  Everywhere and anywhere.  I took my first two steps yesterday and mom and dad danced around the kitchen like their pants were on fire!  Dad set me down in the middle of the dinning room and said, "okay, walk", I think it is something called sarcasm....but since I don't know how that works yet, I just looked around and took 2 steps!  Then I decided to sit down and crawl....way faster that way.  I did like to see mom and dad so excited though, so maybe I will try it again this week.


Have I told you yet that I have gotten 5 teeth in the past 5 weeks?  It's sure makes eating much easier, but man it hurts!  I think I have one more coming in right now too.  I figured, why not just get them all at once....


I know, I know, I still have no hair......no idea what's going on there.......so let's move on.

I went to Idaho last weekend to visit my grandpa for Father's Day.  It was FUN!  It was kind of cold out though so I had to put on all my warm fuzzy clothes again.  We got to go out to eat a couple times and I even had my first french fry!  I liked it...... A LOT!


I even got to go along with to whole family and play 9 holes of golf.  I left my clubs at home, so I had to just hang in the cart.  But sometimes I got out and sat on the green while every one putted.  I can't wait until I am big enough to join in the fun!


I hope you all had a great Father's Day weekend!  I do have to say though, it sure is nice being back in warm, sunny Colorado.  I think I like it here. :)

Love,

So close

I am really close to walking.....but I still like hanging on to stuff.  I am starting to figure out that I can actually go around objects instead of just straight into them.  This is me just outside the kitchen last week.  I was pretty focused on the task at hand.  I didn't even notice mama taking my video.

Hello, you've reached the Landas

Hello, hello, hello! 

You would not believe the learning streak I am on! :) I get pretty confident and then, it has yet to fail, I do something that hurts me or somebody else and then I learn some more.  Mommy says that will never change no matter how old I get. She says that everyone messes up, but that it is about apologizing, forgiving, learning and moving forward. I think I can do that.

Lately I am all about talking on the phone. I don't think mom and dad can understand me yet, but I'll keep trying. You see I hang out in my pack-n-play every morning, and sometimes in the evening too. It's only for about 30 minutes, but it is fun cause I have a little basket of toys to play with. Mom changes the toys up every once in a while to keep me guessing.  But as of late there has been this wooden rooster in the basket, hello, can you say perfect phone? I sure can! I put it up to my ear and make noises. It's not so hard, I see mommy and daddy talk into their phones everyday. Since I am all alone during playtime, I don't really have a fun photo for you.  But I do have a video of me trying to answer the phone while mommy and I were playing in the basement.




When I am not on the phone or pushing my walker around, mommy, Emma and I go for walks.  We try to go everyday, but only if the weather is nice.  The weather sure changes a lot up here though....you'll see what I mean in the pictures!





We try to mix it up..... sometimes we go in the stroller, and sometimes in the pack...... Lately it has been so nice and warm, so I get to roll in my shorts and tshirt!  I love it!



When we got back from Florida the weather wasn't as nice as it is now, so Mama and I made a house to play in.  I still like to play in it when the weather isn't so nice.


The only thing I am missing these days is hair, but I make up for that in personality!  


Love to you all!  Hope you have a great week!

XO,
Charly Addison
