stuff i think of

sorry for the delay. i have had a pretty nasty cold since the weekend before last (dec. 7). i am doing much better now. actually i was doing really good during my cold too. i blew snot bubbles with my nose, had gobs of green snot collecting on my upper lip, and had a few doozy of a cough episodes. although it sounds miserable, it really wasn't. i was able to sleep pretty normally, and i was in my normal happy mood throughout. oh i had a meltdown here or there that i might not have had if i didn't have a cold, but all in all it didn't affect me too much. i think daddy and mommy lost more sleep than me with my snoring (my nose was plugged) and my coughing. it is slowly trailing off now and i should be normal again real soon.
i am helping daddy with the christmas presents for all my grandparents. as a result they might not be ready for christmas, but be patient. i promise it will be well worth the wait.
i am really working hard on walking. in fact depending on your definition, you may say i am walking now. crawling is still my primary means of locomotion, but that is only temporary.
i am able to take multiple steps. i have taken up to seven when mommy or daddy was counting. what happened after seven you ask? well i sure didn't fall if that's what you are wondering. i reached the item i was walking to.
i move around rooms really well. i walk along the couch, then the chair, then the table, then the other chair, then the ottoman, then the wall, then a couple steps free-standing and i am over to the entertainment center, then the speaker, well you get the idea. i can even make it all the way down the hall using the wall.
i really enjoy pushing my car. it has helped me with my walking alot! i am glad that mommy and daddy didn't wait 'til christmas to give it to me.
last weekend daddy brought at tree into the house and put lots of stuff on it. at night it looks real pretty. i'm not sure what it is for, but mommy calls it the christmas tree and tells me that everything underneath it is for me, but that i have to wait. what a tease!
