Week Twenty-Four

You will never guess what we have … A CAT … we have a real life big huge orange cat … mommy told me we have always had the cat … that the cat has been around for 9 years but I swear until this week I never noticed him … I started watching him walk around this week and occasionally I noticed he sniffed my feet … but on Friday I finally decided to touch him … and he is so soft and sweet … he seems a little scared of me … I’m not sure why cause I just want to love him all the time now …
So according to mommy I have a boyfriend already … I am not quite sure what she means but there is a little boy at daycare named Conner who likes to follow me around the room where ever I go … he loves when I wear my shoes with the animals on the front that jingle when I kick … and when mommy picked me up on Thursday he came crawling over to my carrier … climbed inside with me and kissed my cheek … mommy thought it was so cute … daddy is happy because the first day we met Conner he was wearing a New York Yankees outfit … so of course he won daddy over …
Mommy took a bunch of pictures of me in my Halloween costume this week and sent out cards to family … that way Grandpa could see me in my costume even though he lives in NY …
I tried a bunch of new foods this week too … I had some bananas and more carrots … even tried peas but it turns out I HATE them … I was gagging and coughing and making the funniest faces … mommy kept trying but there was no way I was going to eat those … I have figured out how to spit food out so they were all over the place …
I’ve also started making spitting and buzzing noises … makes me laugh and I am getting better and better at it …
Mommy cut my night time feedings down to two ounces and 3 nights this week I slept through the night … I’ve been sleeping with mommy and daddy and if I wake up and mommy comforts me I don’t need a bottle … I didn’t realize sleeping through the night would make mommy so happy but it sure does …
