Lots for ZDub to Celebrate!

If Gerber made a cake-flavored jar of baby food, I surely would be enjoying it right now, as it has been milestone after milestone for ZDub since I last blogged! Besides starting to eat real baby food, I now roll around, I have multiple teeth top and bottom, I passed 6 AND 7 months old, I trick-or-treated for the first time, I started daycare in the building that Mommy works at..... and to top it off, today is Mommy and Daddy's 5th wedding anniversary! And how have YOU been?!

My first Halloween was really fun, even though I went through several rejected costumes before settling on being Batman. I got to trick-or-treat around the neighborhood. But because I cannot enjoy candy until 2014, I let Mommy and Daddy have my treats.

It took me awhile to get interested in rolling, but now I roll like 2-ply Charmin! Mommy and Daddy now have to watch me closely because of how quickly I can move from place to place. I don't know how I'm going to do it, but I am starting to think of how I can get from point A to B by using my hands and feet. Let me know if you have any ideas as to how I can accomplish this.... thanks!

On the schedule for ZDub in November is my first airplane trip! We are going to Grandma and Papa's house in Arizona for Thanksgiving, which will also be the first time I get to go swimming! If my bathtime is any indication, Papa might want to be ready to add chlorine to the pool after I'm done.....

I hope all my family and friends out there are doing really well, and that I can see you during the holiday season!

Love,
ZDub

ZDub is 5 months old!

Hello everyone! It was a busy August for ZDub, and now I am 5 months old.... can you believe it?! My first two teeth came in (bottom row), and Mommy and Daddy have suddenly stopped letting me put their hands in my mouth. So instead I like to gnaw on all of my toys, blankets, clothes..... you name it. I stopped sucking on my own hands, as that is SO for 4-monthers. Now I actually get my feet in my mouth! It helps that my feet are roughly the size of water ski's. I've already outgrown my first pairs of Nike Shox and Air Kobe's, but I have a feeling Daddy will have something else for me soon.

Mommy, Grandma and I went to the family cabin at Lake Roesiger, and we had a great time! I LOVE water, so it was fun to go out in the boat and even put my feet in the lake! I also had fun on Lake Whatcom when we visited Uncle Phil, Auntie Cindi, Uncle Sean, Auntie Sabrina, Auntie Stephie and cousin Willemina in Bellingham!

I have been able to spend more time with Grandma, and my Oma, as Mommy has gone back to work at Starbucks 3 days a week and Daddy is making short trips to Oklahoma City. I am ready to start eating cereal, but apparently Count Chocula and the Trix rabbit will have to standby for now..... I guess you start with some kind of rice cereal concoction. I'll let you know how that goes.

I have two new playmates since the last time I blogged..... Jackson "Duke" Sele, he of the coolest name ever, was born to Mommy and Daddy's friends Marshall and Amie. And Uncle Darab, Auntie Marianna and cousin Eli welcomed Lily Catherine Sarbandi on August 27!

Well, I need to go update my LinkedIn profile, so goodbye for now, hope to see you soon!
