Quick update

I have been trying to write more often to make these shorter, but it's hard when I am so busy having fun all the time.

I couldn't wait much longer to share this news (warning, some of it is sad).

We found out that Jasmine has cancer. I am not sure exactly what that means, but Mommy and Daddy say that Jasmine is sick. She had to have surgery (which is way worse than getting a shot) and she had to have a big bandage for two days. The vet says she is doing well now, but the sickness had already spread. Mommy and Daddy keep telling me about 3-4 months, but I am not quite sure how long that is and what is going to happen then.

That was the sad news.

The happy news is that Diego can pull himself up now and I was the one who got to see him do it the first time. Mommy was in Alpine at a conference at Sul Ross. Daddy was in the kitchen making lunch. I was playing with my airport and Diego. He just grabbed the side of my airport table and pulled himself up. I was so excited that I started yelling for Daddy to come over. That's how Daddy was able to take some quick photos of Diego.

In other news, Diego had his first tooth. Daddy and I saw it while Mommy was away, but we forgot to tell Mommy (we both think she knew, but forgot about it). She found out (or remembered) when she was feeding Diego yesterday and he bit her finger. I am not sure why he bit her finger, but Daddy says he is still learning how to bite so he didn't know it would hurt Mommy. I think he bit his own finger a little later and decided to try not to bite people's fingers anymore.

Other firsts: we went to the park and Diego got to swing for the first time (he loves it). He got to ride the twisty slide for the first time. He even climbed up the hoops (Daddy calls it the beanstalk) with Daddy. I was able to climb the hoops too, but I needed some help. Check out the picture of Mommy at the top of the hoops.

Last week was Tio Monci's birthday. He had a belated party today and I got to sing happy birthday to him (sort of). It turns out, it is hard to sing happy birthday with your fingers in your mouth. I definitely loved his cake. Even better, Lita gave me a second piece of cake. For the whole rest of the night, Mommy and Daddy kept talking about something called a "sugar high". I am not sure what that is, but I was having a lot of fun tonight.

That's all for now. Here are a few pictures I was able to grab off of my Daddy's phone:
