Week 30 in a One Bedroom Apartment

We are moving up! As early as next week, the Keisler family may be moving into a two-bedroom apartment about three blocks away. This will formally end my blog under the current title. If you have ideas for a new title, perhaps we could include something about my getting a room of my own or something about my new crib which I have been promised by Grandma Brenda. In any case, this is exciting news for all current residents and future visitors of the Keisler household.


This week was also a big week for me, including daycare, the arrival of my Aunt Lindsay from New York and visits from my Grandma, Grandpa and Great-Grandma Keisler. Today, we spent the day at Angel Stadium where the Angels clinched the American League West Division Championship (their third in the last four years). While this was my fourth game of the year, I didn't fair to well. Unfortunately, we were very close to the fireworks (which are very loud) and it hurt my ears. We left in the seventh inning so that I could get a nap.

This week I also ate chicken and rice for the first time. Up until now, I have been sticking to the vegetables...it's a philosophical thing for me. But when my mom tricked me into eating some rice with roasted chicken blended in, I haven't turned back. I think I will definitely be a meat eater for the rest of my life. No matter how much food they give me, I always frown and cry so that they get used to feeding me a lot. I want to make sure that they know that I enjoy eating.


Also, we spent a lot of time at the park this week, particularly on the swings. My mom and I play lots of games together (she says that my dad is at work sitting in front of a computer), so we go to the park and get our exercise. I love the swings and get very upset when mom wants to go home. She says that we can't spend all day at the park but I don't see any problem with having her push me in the swing for a few hours a day. Although I am still not digging the crawling thing, we spent a lot of time practicing my walking around the park. I lead my mom around by holding her hand so that she doesn't tip over.

My mom and I babysat my buddy Jackson on Friday. You can see that Jackson (who will be one on October 3, 2007) is already walking and trying to teach me in the picture below. It's pretty cool to see him up and getting around but he tells me that it will come naturally if I am patient.
