(My mommy made my daddy take this picture of me after I ate Mum Mums for the first time.  They were all over me and got stuck to my face when she changed me before my bath.  I wouldn't have been as happy here had I known I had stuff on my face, though!)

Hi!

My daddy is always taking pictures of me and my mommy is always doing the blogging, so I thought I'd take over some of that responsibility for once.

I am 6-1/2 months old and am loving life!  My favorite thing is to chew (and drool) on anything that comes near my hands or mouth.  I especially like to chew on my book in the bath that my great grandma got me.  I love to watch my sister Roxy play fetch - it really makes me laugh sometimes.  I like playing in my Exersaucer, doing art at daycare and taking baths, too.  I especially love to be out and about on walks or out at social functions - there are so many fun things to see!

I've led my parents to believe that I don't really like baby food (I really make great horrified faces), but I actually don't mind the taste since it has lots more flavor than my bottles; however, I really just like to blow raspberries when I eat because it's funny to spit food on my mom and to hear her scream in surprise.  My favorite thing to eat is Mum Mums -- YUM YUM!  They fed me a few Cheerios at daycare the other day, and those are yummy and fun, too.

I am really good at sitting and I'm good at rolling from my back to my tummy, which I often do while sleeping now.  Sometimes though, I wake up in the middle of the night on my tummy and wish I was on my back, but I am just too heavy and can't seem to roll back onto my back, so I have to cry to wake mommy and daddy up so that they know to come help me out.  But, once they turn me over, I usually wish I was back on my tummy, so I flip right back over after they leave the room.

Well, I am supposed to be sleeping now.  I'll try to steal my mommy's computer again soon.

Sending you slobbery kisses and lots of raspberries,

-Jackson
