2006 goals

I've thought long and hard about my 2006 goals. Mums says not to use the word 'resolution' because sometimes we don't always reach them.

So I'm setting up goals. That way, even if I dont' reach them, I won't be sad. I can still be happy that I almost reached it.

Before sharing my goals, I want to share a few things I've learned in 2005...

- Crying can work for me in two ways - I either get what I want (milk, food, get picked up, whatever-whatever-whatever), or I get put to bed.

- When I raise my arms up, someone will usually pick me up.

- Smiling will make people go "ooooooh" - especially Mums. But it can also get my cheeks squeezed.

- I'm a big fan of shiny necklaces - Pops calls it "bling."

- I like taking eye/sunglasses off your face. It's fun. So if you're wearing it, beware.

- I superly-duperly HATE tummy time. I really don't understand the big deal of needing tummy time. Just carry me...lazy.

- Not everything I pick up should go in my mouth...has Mums ever told you about the laptop plug? Eck! Getting a shock in your mouth isn't fun.

- Karo syrup helps my poopy not hurt my butt-butt. Thank you, Karo!

- Drinking from a cup is messy. I always get too wet and cold.

(drum roll) drrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...

And some of my goals for 2006 are...

- I can't wait until I can run. Run away from Mums and Pops when they call my name. But I think I need to learn how to crawl first.

- I'm excited to get more teeth so I can eat more food. Especially the things Mums and Pops eat.

- My very first 1st birthday. Need I say more?

- My first Super Bowl with Pops...we're hoping the Steelers make it. Ooooh, I can wear my outfit.

- Say more words. Right now, Mums and Pops can only understand mama.

So far that's all I can think of. I'll keep you updated with how well I did with my goals.
