Movin' On Up!

Big day today my blog followers...I have graduated finally. I graduated from the Infant Room to the First Steps Room. Now you may be wondering what an almost 15 mn old was doing in an Infant room as doesn't one become a toddler when they start to walk? Yeah, that's what I was thinking, as well as my parents. When I started walking at a 11 mns I gave them fair warning that I was not going to stand for playing with babies all that long, but they had other things in mind. That is until my mom got a hold of them.

Thanks to my mom's persuasive reasoning, she insisted on me spending time with the "big kids" and work on adjusting to their lifestyle. So over the last month or so I have been spending more and more time with them. Finally, last week I was spending pretty much all day over there. I even took a nap on a pillow one day, and not in my crib. So on Thursday, when Goddard offered to move me up, my mom jumped on it.

Amongst the many changes that go with heading into the First Steps room is the fact that I get to sleep on the floor on top of a sleeping bag. So over the weekend, I picked out my first sleeping bag. Another change that is not so welcome is the sadness I feel as I bid farewell to my friends in the Infant room. Its especially sad because they did not move my best friend/crush, Emily.

Today proved to be a confusing day. I started my breakfast in a weird room with lots of big kids. Weird Steven tried to steal my banana in my the midst of my confusion, but my mom fended him off with a stern NO! Thank goodness, because that banana is the only thing that was a constant of my day. After the confusion passed, I adjusted quite well and even took a short nap on my new sleeping bag. I did lots of new things and even came home saying a new word, "mouth", while I pointed to mommy and daddy's. I can also say shoe now while attempting to put them on.

The day did not end all that sad as I heard from a little birdy that Emily's mom is not so happy that we were separated!! She is now pushing for my girlfriend to move on up too! I have a feeling that we won't be separated for all that long. In fact, I heard she's going to be joining me tomorrow for an afternoon of fun in the First Steps room....can't wait!
