I experienced all sorts of new things things month -- mama bought me a bonnet so I could go out in the sun, and she instituted 'tummy time'. (I confess, I usually HATE tummy time!)

I kept practicing my smiles now, and I'll smile and "talk" to lots of people

I really like my bouncy chair too -- my favorite thing is to wiggle and make the yellow 'bee' bounce! And I love to look at the blinds in mom & dad's room

Sometimes I get upset though -- here Tommy's trying to comfort me by letting me suck on his finger. (Tommy's got to learn how to say this though -- he came to mommy one day and said "I sucked on Ria's mouth." "WHAT?!" exclaimed mommy, before she understood. "Oh, you let Maria suck on your finger!" Now when Maria's fussy, he'll say "suck on Ria's mouth mommy" (or on one rare occasion -- "give her the finger"!))

My favorite thing to do though, is to sleep -- in Daddy's arms, or in Mama's.
