On Saturday, June 21, I decided to walk. We were at the splash park at the zoo, and it was just time. I mean, I was turning one the next day. Gotta check off those developmental milestones. So then Mom and Dad were scrambling to get me some shoes. And to keep me from killing myself. I don't know why they worry. I never fall. They're always there to catch me.
That same week, I made the American Sign Language sign for milk, and Mom was very happy to give me some. I use it regularly instead of crying now. If I can't find her, I call "Mamama", and I get very excited to see "Dadada". Everything else is "Guh" or "Dat". I am pointing at stuff to get people to tell me the names.
I can point to ask for things like water. I frequently ask Dad to hold me up to the radio and then I turn it on. I love music.
I have invented a game where I push my head down into the pillows and growl, then Dad has to do it, then it's my turn again. If he forgets that it's his turn, I point at him to remind him. The other day I stumbled backward and Dad caught my behind with his hand. This turned into a fabulous game wherein I jumped up and down. I now back my fanny into his hand to get him to jump me around often.

| Family day. Not really a fan of cake, but it's fun to paint with it. |
 |
| Now the noisemakers I like. |
 |
| and the pointy hats are okay. |
 |
| Watch out, playground. I got this. |
 |
| All this running around makes me thirsty. Gotta stay hydrated if I'm gonna be a Florida boy. |
 |
| First day visiting toddler class... |
 |
| ...and I ain't even tired... |
 |
| ...except maybe a little bit tired... |
 |
| Riverside Park, feeding birds. |
 |
| My prince crown. |
 |
| I put this bowl on my head because I am a comedic genius. I crack myself up by putting things on as hats, and also by biting them so they cover my nose. Haha, I am so clever. |
