My first month I taught my parents how to satisfy my every desire. I ignore most toys and prefer eating over any other activity. I initiated the idea that sleeping is best done on someone instead of any mattress. More on that later. Daddy got my first smile at about 2 1/2 weeks old. My favorite time of day is late evening when Mommy takes me for a walk. Well, actually, our neighbors Fawn and Frank take me for a walk and Mommy tags along. I used to sleep during the walk, but now I try to stay awake.
Gram Farrington stayed for two whole weeks and took me on the Cliff Walk and took me to church the very first time. She made a lot of yummy food for Mommy and Daddy and took me to church for the very first time. She convinced my mommy to read to me all the time and found me a big library of the very best children's books. I'm told we went out to eat too, but I don't seem to remember that.
I coerced Grandma Bird into driving up to see me not once, but twice. She is a comfortable mattress and takes the very best pictures of me. I smile at her to thank her for holding me and bringing me gifts. She is the reason I have girly onesies on.
On the way to Great Grandpa Shatwell's birthday party, we stopped at Sydney's house. She is four days younger than I which makes me much, much bigger than her. She is cute as can be and also prefers sleeping on someone. Sydney and I like to sleep and play at the same times, but Sydney sleeps longer at night then I do. Marlene and Hal are her parents. Marlene was Mommy's roommate at college. 
Great-grandpa's party was fun, but I ate most of the time. Grandpa held me for the very first time and so did a lot of other people.
