Can you believe it is October already? It seems like September was only here for a minute in my house but, here's the scoop on what's been happening...
I am really keeping Mommy, Grammy, and Pop-Pop on their toes these days. Anything and everything that is not nailed down in the house is mine-all-mine to play with! I have plenty of toys but who wants to play with those when there's TV remotes to hide (O-o-p-s!), little things called "nic-nacs" that go c-r-a-s-h when they hit the floor (O-o-p-s!), other things called "CDs" to pull off of shelves (O-o-p-s!), keys to throw in the trash (O-o-p-s!), books or magazines with pages that you can actually tear (O-o-p-s!), something called "record albums" to pull out of their covers and drop on the floor (O-o-p-s!), pots to drag out of cabinets (O-o-p-s!) and well, you get the picture. I even discovered that if you pull on something called a dresser scarf or a place mat, everything on it will come sliding toward you...and if you keep pulling it, everything will end up on the floor (O-o-p-s!). I am beginning to think that "NO!" and "STOP!" are the only words my family knows??? Just between you and me, I hear those two words a lot at day care too!!! Ms. Bea and Ms. Nyeisha told my family that I am a very "active" little boy (whatever that means). But, you'll be happy to know that in the midst of all this chaos, I actually gave my family something to smile about...
On Saturday, September 27th (mark it down), my Mommy taught me how to say my name! That's right, if you ask me "What's your name?" (and I’m in the moment), I can actually say E-L-I-J-A-H. I can also say "mama", "no", "all gone", and "tank ku". And yes, Grammy said that last word counts as "thank you"...if you disagree, talk to her about it! As for action words, I can wave "bye-bye" and my Great Aunt Wanda taught me how to give "high fives".
Despite everything you just read, my Mommy, Grammy, and Pop-Pop are all doing well and said to tell you "Hello!" My Mommy is working during the day now and we are both happy about that because we can spend more time together playing the "NO! and STOP!" game. Grammy enjoyed her birthday and vacation from blog posts. We took her to the New Delhi Indian Restaurant to celebrate her special day. Great Uncle Andy, Great Aunt Wanda, and her Mommy were there too. The food was really good and we all had a nice time. As for Pop-Pop, he was the "calm during all my storms" throughout the house and we just spent time together chillin', like we always do!
THE BOOGA CHALLENGE: If you're little like me and learned how to say your name or any other words recently, let me know what they are in the comments so we can celebrate together!
