50 Weeks...Yep, I'm a walker (and an early riser!)

I am really starting to take off!  I started taking shorter, faster steps when the week began, and now I am walking across the room!  I probably walk about half the time.  I can't wait to show off my skills at my birthday party!
I also really like to roll over on my back and start slamming my feet on the ground.  Mommy and Daddy said Ellie used to do that too.  It's about the only time I tolerate being on my back.
I have been giving a lot of hugs and kisses and snuggles too!  If someone asks if they can have love, I usually lean into them and headbutt them.  Sometimes I even wrap my arms around people and give real hugs.    I have been doing this to books for a while, but I have started putting my lips on people for kisses!
If I am asked about animal noises, they all make the same sound: "mmmm, mmmm!"  It all sounds the same to me!  I am getting really good at pointing out the correct animal in books though.
I have a couple of other tricks too.  I am getting really good at waving at people, especially cars.  I seem to know when it is time to leave and start waving all on my own.  I also like to test gravity.  I love throwing my food on the floor and hearing it splat.  It is a really fun game to drop anything and watch other people pick it back up so I can do it again!
We had some snow and ice this week, so Ellie and Daddy had a snow day and we ran some errands and had a fun family day.  Ellie had a late start another day.  That same day, Mommy took us to a Frozen party at the library.  I just wanted to play with the crayons and try to escape!  Mommy also took me to another counselor meeting and I showed off my walking skills there.
Another thing I have been doing is waking up early, sometimes before 5 AM.  Mommy and Daddy don't seem too happy about that!  At first, Mommy thought it was because I didn't get enough milk the two days she was gone, but when I kept doing it, she was on to me!  They have tried some tough love the last couple of days, and I think I get the picture.  Sleep until the sun comes up-got it!
50 Weeks-I always wake up with these rosy cheeks!
What are you in for?
 I am just returning brown puppy and pink monkey, honest!  Please don't tell Ellie!
 Cuddle time with Mommy
 And a hug for her too!
 What?  I'm just entertaining myself!
 A punch to the head-I really didn't mean it (or did I?)
 See, there is only love here!
 Hugs for Daddy
 I love my family!
 Sweet potatoes-delicious and a great moisturizer!
 Awww!  Just taking a little break from playing to rest.
 Family resemblance, very serious!
 Awwww...loving on my 101 Dalmatian puppy
 It makes Mommy so happy when I fall asleep on her.  She knows these times won't last much longer!
