What? A blog?

Dear son,

Yep, this blog is for you. I love this picture of you because it shows how amazed and excited you get about new things. In the background of the photo is your friend Olympia. Olympia and her mom Pat brought over some gifts for you two nights ago (Tuesday, August 1st). They brought you your first three ring stackable toy and your first music box. In this picture you are hearing the box play music for the first time.

You had a great time with Olympia and Pat. You gave them a tour of our new home by crawling from room to room. You just started crawling a few weeks ago and you can go so fast when you are excited to go see something.

You are on my lap right now as I am typing the first post in your blog. You are trying to help me type. You are putting out the index finger of your right hand and then your left hand, but you can't get a word in edgewise. Another thing you do when you experience something new is get really quiet while you study it; however, when you have got a handle on it you then let out a joyful squeal. I think you are getting tired now so we'll go read a few books to help you wind down for sleep.

Love,

your mom
