oh hey, I'm 50 weeks old

can you believe it?

I'm 50 weeks old, which means one is just around the corner

literally

this means mom and grammie have been working overtime on some

birthday goodness

and I've even been photographed for the special occasion

turns out, when I'm given an entire cake to eat

I'm most likely only going to eat a couple of bites

I clearly prefer being fed my cake off a fork by my friend Bethany

go figure

my favorite toys these days include long pieces of ribbon

a laundry basket, as well as pillows and blankets

since I've written last I went from owning no shoes

to having too many pairs to count

oops, mom had a little too much fun

babys-r-us and the target boys section were attacked pretty hard

in other news I love making silly noises with my daddy

I can mimic pretty much anything he does

I love playing peek-a-boo

and one of my favorite faces these days is when I grab my face

and tap my cheeks

I'm still making my piggy scrunch face

and they are all just too adorable for my mom

I'm still taking steps

I think mom has counted nine in a row as my record

and daddy finally got to see these steps in person

I was holding out on him pretty bad

finally a couple of nights ago I let him see my new moves while 

visiting our friends Salma & Nevin

my newest favorite foods include green beans and grapes

and strawberries have replaced my blueberries fix

be back next week!
