• standing: there is just not much around her that I can climb in order to try and stand but I'm trying my best
• escaping to Loki's room to play with her
• CHEERIOS!!!!!!!!
• if I can pick it up, it can go in my mouth. If I can't pick it up I will bring my mouth to it to chew on it. 
• Everything is edible, trust me.
• I have the puny mortals under my spell! All I have to do is lift my arms up and they come rushing over to pick me up!

In the last month I have improved upon:

• getting the whole 'crawling' thing down pat

• talking! Mm ma was said first! (haha I won this one!)
• climbing; everything is climbable, if only my limbs would work right.
• following: my big sister leads me all over the house
• playing with Loki (it's so cute to watch, he has no idea what's going on, and for that matter I'm not 100% sure Loki has any idea either) 

8 months and counting!

Name: Odin

Age: 8 months 2 days

Teeth Status: 3 in, 3 more starting to pop through

Favorite Activities: Chewing and drooling.

Favorite Food: Milk, sweet potatoes, bananas, squash, and peaches

Favorite toy: Loki's legos

In the last month I have improved upon

• learning how to crawl
• learning to sleep in my own room (but not all night yet, that would be too easy for mommy
• sitting up a lot more 
• saying 'hi' I won't say mama or dada yet, that would be too easy
• hiding as many of Loki's legos as possible for latter play when she's not looking.

7 month interview

Today we have an interview for you to read between a mother and her son. Now since we don't speak fluent baby, we got a translator. He said his name was Doctor, and he spoke baby (was quite indignant if anyone expressed doubt) 

Name: Odin

Age: 7 months

Favorite Activities: chewing, rolling over, giggling with daddy

Favorite Food: milk!

Favorite Sister: What's a sister?

Favorite toy: KEYS!

How have you been improving lately? 

• rolling over: got that down pat, 
• crawling: I haven't quite gotten the whole thing down, but I do move forward, mommy calls it 'inchworming' the things that hold me up don't move well yet. 
• talking: Daddy keeps trying to make me say 'dada' but I just smile and giggle at him.
• grabbing: I can grab and hold things now, all the better for me to get things in my mouth to chew on!
• teething: I have two teeth in, and my top two teeth are starting to come in now.

And now, the traditional pictures of a monthly interview.

The only rattle worth his time

his 'walker' his favorite place to sit aside from a lap

His favorite toy on the walker

This is from a few months ago, when we first got the walker, still his favorite toy. 

Although now he has figured out if he wants to chew he gets the sides, not trying to get a grip on the circular part. 

So it starts...

My complete inability to keep going with anything for more than 30 minutes at a time. I was hoping that I wouldn't be this unfocused this early in the pregnancy, but I suppose that the fact my body is already changing (like seriously, my abdomen is already starting to tighten up, not sure if that's a good or bad thing)

I had my interview with the post office today, and to be honest, I don't think they are going to offer me the job, but they did encourage me to look at other offers that were available and see if anything else on their website might be a good fit. So I'm still waiting to hear from the CNA job, but hopefully will hear back tomorrow.
