Hole in One, Cruising, More teeth..........

Wow, I can't believe it has been so long since I last posted - time just flies by. Since my last post a lot has happened. Jerad was very proud of himself one Sunday morning playing golf when he called me to tell me he had got a hole in one. I guess that means he needs to keep going back to play each weekend to see if he can get another one! I had another week away for work this time in Atlanta and I'm heading back there again tonight. So Amy and Daddy will have another week together.

Amy is certainly growing up more and more each week. She is crawling all over the house and pulling up on furniture cruising around the living room. Buka of course likes having a playmate who is more active :-) Amy has also started to get more teeth - she has 10 now and is of course enjoying biting into her food and mummy's finger sometimes. She is still going to the Little Gym each Saturday and enjoys seeing her friends. She seems to really like exploring all the different gym equipment and following the other kids around. She particularly likes to music and songs they play - she does like to "dance".

I have also gotten with the times and actually bought myself an iPod nano (of course I got the pink one). Since then I have had fun downloading songs from our huge box of CDs. Now I just need to workout how to make playlists etc - I'm sure it's not that hard. I can't believe how much fits onto such a small device. I'm also looking forward to downloading some of the audiobooks (particularly Harry Potter). I remember when I was little and had a Walkman (i.e. with cassette tapes!!) I'll be taking it with me tonight to Atlanta so that should make the trip go by.

Bubbles are fun

Sorry I missed posting last week - I meant to do it Sunday night but then time got away from me. It's been another fun 2 weeks in the household. Amy is certainly getting better and faster at crawling. We need to put up the safety gates now so that she doesn't "explore" up and down the staircase. We of course have kept taking her to the Little Gym where she seems to have come out of her shell more and more each week. You can see her getting comfortable with the other kids and their parents. She is also starting to use some of the sign language she has been learning. Now when she has her meals in her high chair she will use the sign for "more" if you stop feeding her. It is so cute to watch - especially with her little hands.

Nothing new for Jerad and I. Just the usual working and Jerad playing golf on the weekends. We did all go out on Friday night for a nice dinner at a local Thai restaurant though. Amy and I went out this weekend to Babies'R'Us to get a gift for a girl I work with. There is a group of us from work who all pitched in and since it is her first baby she had a lot of stuff to choose from on her registry. I have some work to finish up tonight so nothing exciting planned for the rest of the weekend.

I have added a new video as it was just so cute last night we had to tape it. Amy was getting ready for her bath and before I took her up we were playing with her bubbles. For some reason she thought it was hilarious to see Buka chasing and eating the bubbles. She gets a real little belly laugh going.
