I've been having a great weekend so far. On Friday night, I went out with Katie and her college room mate Jouhana, and Jouhana's cousin Eman. Us four girls went to the NC State University "Wolfpack" Homecoming Parade. The parade was the beginning of the homecoming celebration -- where graduates come back to their college -- and football matches. It was lots of fun and I even got some beads from a guy in the parade.

Today, Saturday, I got to play with Mummy and Daddy all day. First we went to Daddy's doctor - he's got a hoarse throat from some infection. Then after picking up his antibiotics, we went to the bagel shop for some lunch. Then we went to one of the local flower shops to buys some nice flowers to plant in the front garden. Dad and I played for a hour or so. I practiced my standing, scooting round the coffee table, and generally crawling all over my playroom. Then Dad went to the theatre to run lights for One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, while Mum & I played some more and I had a nap. Then a lovely bath and bed (after some mucking around, much to their chagrin).

Bath times have taken an interesting turn of late. I now like to stand up in the bath. You see, now that I can stand up and scoot around places (like the coffee table and the sofa), I like to stand wherever I can. It makes it quite difficult for Dad to bathe me, but I like it!
