Planes, Trains and Peekaboo


Daniel,

You took your first plane ride last week to see your relatives on the East Coast. We saw Grammy, CB, Auntie Jenny and your great grandmother in New York. We saw your grandpa Warren, grandma Christin and great aunts in Massachusetts. And you met dozens of Momma’s friends along the way, including my buddy Kyle, whose finger you gnawed on much of the night, and my godmother Joyce, whom you played your first outrageously funny round of peekaboo with.

During the week we were gone you grew a lot and started doing many new tricks. You started trying to take steps when we helped you stand on two feet. You started talking (in your own little language) a lot, especially in the mornings when you first woke up in your crib. You finally started to enjoy cuddles – yay! And you found a special place in the hearts of many living more than 2,500 miles away. Not to mention, you were a rock star on the four planes you had to take to and fro.

There are certainly more stories to come of your East Coast adventures.

Love you, big guy!

Mommy

That's the JJ I know. It looks like Daniel is taking after his Dad.

So far Daniel sleeps on every form of transportation we've taken him on. We'll be trying a boat in a few weeks.
