What's New

This is Birkley one morning when we went in to wake Treigh! She lights up when i put her on his bed because she can pull up and stand all on her own.

Birkley had her 6 month check-up a couple of days ago. She weighs 20 pounds and is 28 inches long. She loves standing, pulling up, and crawling. She also loves making raspberries, and has started mocking us more and more. She makes the "mmmmmaahhh" sound for a kiss when I do it to her, then laughs likes crazy. She has also started to let us know when she wants us or something. She makes an "angry ugg-like grunt" when she wants us, but when she wants Treigh is is more high-pitched and happy. She has also started showing us a little temper too. When we take something from her she is not always happy when we supplement with another toy...she wants the one that we have taken.
In a "mommy-oops" moment when I was helping Treigh get some juice this evening, she ate her first chunk of paper from a advertisement card. I saw her tear it off, but she swallowed it down before I could get to her. I am sure it won't be the worst thing she eats!
Treigh is turning into a little man and going through the terrible 2-3's at the same time. Last night at dinner Rich was telling us something and he interrupted by saying. "um daddy, your not posed to talk with your mouth full." I cracked up. Then after dinner they went out to do something with some clubs in the garage so I changed the channel from football to another channel. When they came in, he came into the living room, looked at the TV, then looked at me, pointed his finger and shouted, "you don't change that channel, I was watching that football game."
His current Santa wish list includes, "shovels and rakes," "a santa bucket," and "a pair of golf shoes."
We still have mastered the potty-training as he has absolutely refused to go near the toilet, but will tell us when he is pooping.
