Adventurous at 6 Weeks







From the minute I turned six weeks old, I suddenly became quite adventurous! To be honest, I was tired of staring at the walls at the house and I know that Mommy was definitely getting tired of it too! So, off we headed with the Germ-X in hand for an adventurous week...

Our first stop of the week was to my Great Grandma Sadah's house in Beckley, WV. Believe it or not, Mommy drove us all the way up there and back. And when I say "us" I literally mean her and I, remember Daddy is working (have I told you how much I miss him)! I got to see my cousin, Rowan. She loved touching me while Great Grandma was holding me; she is SO sweet and I cannot wait until I get alittle older so that we can play together. My second outing of the week was with one of my Mommy's best friends, Rebecca, and her daughter, Hannah. We all went to a MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) meeting where Mommy learned about first-aid and got to mingle with other mothers. I was on my best behavior, it probably helped that Mommy finally learned to feed me as we are practically pulling out of the garage!! We also went to Pandapas Pond for a short hike; Mommy was upset that we forgot the bread to feed the ducks. Mommy pointed out all the ducks, geese, and turtles along the way even though I was snoozing.

My parents taught me alittle about gardening during the week. We planted a bunch of vegetables from seed. My parents said that they really hope that we aren't putting out a smorgasbord of food for the deer, rabbits, and groundhogs that come into our yard! I guess we'll all find out soon enough. Daddy also showed me the John Deere mower; I can see that he is itching for me to get alittle bigger so that I can help him mow the lawn! Mommy says that we'll just have to settle for a little toy mower for now...

My sixth week ended with Mommy and Daddy taking me to the mall. I became quite fussy about 10 minutes into the journey through the mall. My parents were on the verge of panic and were ready to leave. I finally calmed down and we continued our journey. I was thankful I got myself together, as it was quite a neat experience. With all this adventure this week, I believe my parents are becoming quite confident in taking me out, what do you think? I just hear Mommy tell Daddy that I must eat before we head out, extra milk is a must for the trip, not to leave home without the Germ-X, and lastly, strangers aren't allowed to grab my cheeks...
