June 2009

My parents have picked a much better nickname for me than Grunting Grant. They now call me Super G which I kind of enjoy. My 2nd month was another busy one. I did get to go to the beach like Mommy and Daddy told me I was going to and it was pretty neat. The sand and the ocean are pretty cool and I even got to 'stand' on a surfboard.

The other thing that my mommy has started calling me is Chunky Monkey. I am not sure that I like this one as much as Super G. When I had my doctors appointment, I was 24 1/2 inches long (above the 95th percentile line) and weighed 13 lbs 11 oz (between the 90th and 95th percentile). So, I am kind of a big boy for my age. I just tell people that I'm young for my size.

Smiling has been one of my new tricks this month which seems to make Mommy and Daddy laugh and smile back. They can be kind of silly sometimes. I've also really started to like my swing and like to kick and bat at these things that dangle above me on my gym.

The other thing that I've started working on is this thing called a bottle. I'm not sure about it yet, but we'll see. It may have advantages that I just haven't discovered yet.
