On the Porch


During the summer, one of her favorite past times was to sit on the porch, waiting for Daddy to come home.

Food!



She has expanded her repertoire of foods to include sweet potatoes, prunes, squash, corn, green beans, applesauce, bananas, oatmeal, blueberries, winter squash, turkey, beef, and spinach. She is growing tired of my assistance and obviously wishes to feed herself. She's not quite able to do it yet, but that doesn't stop her from trying.

Rockin' and Rollin'




The Tiny Overlord continue to creep and scoot around her domain. Her mobility pleases her, but there are places she can't reach. Also, the cats are still faster than she is. In order to solve these vexing problems, she is practicing a new mode of transportation. She hasn't perfected crawling yet, but it will happen, and sooner rather than later, I'm afraid.

She is now napping and sleeping well in her private headquarters, aka her bedroom. She goes to sleep on her own. She is rarely pleased at having to stop experiencing new things, however and she disagrees vehemently when I tell her that it is time to sleep. But after a short period of time, in which she expresses her displeasure, she falls to sleep.
