What? Spring is here?!

Yes, this past weekend it finally got nice enough outside for Mom and Dad to take me for a walk. I was awake for the entire twenty minutes we were outside, and I was making this face:

You can hardly blame me, though -- there's just so much to take in! Sights and sounds and smells. Dad says it blows his mind to think about all the things I haven't done yet. He keeps saying, "you've never tasted a strawberry! You're going to love it!" I don't know why he's so fixated on strawberries, but I can't wait to try one. 

Things have been pretty okay with Mom going back to work and Dad taking care of me all day. I do miss having someone's undivided attention at all times, but staring at the toys on my space mat or hanging out in the bouncer while Dad works isn't too bad. I miss Mom all day, though, and I'm always glad to see her when she comes home -- especially if it's time to eat! I'm not knockin' the bottle, but there's nothing like getting it from the source.

Not much more to report, here. Last night I had a stuffy nose and it was stuffed up all night long. Since I don't know how to blow my nose, and I don't know how to breathe out of my mouth unless I'm crying, I didn't get much sleep and neither did Mom or Dad! It's got to be weird for Dad having someone else's snoring and coughing keeping HIM up! But Mom and Dad called the pediatrician today and they said to just put a humidifier in the room and to keep sucking on my nose with the squeeze-bulb thingy. Quite frankly, I could do without that last bit!

Anyway, I've been taking a day for myself, y'know? Just sleeping, waking up to eat, maybe smiling and talking a little, but mostly sleep. I've got to keep up on my beauty sleep if I want to continue to be the world's cutest baby.

Oh, I almost forgot -- Dad found a couple of pictures of me that he hadn't posted yet, including my debut picture when I was, like, five minutes old! I think we can all be grateful that my head didn't stay that shape.

Watch this space!
