Veda and her friends

Veda was and is an active baby, she burns the calories very fast. She crawls all over the place and cruises around holding onto furniture. Her partner in crime at her daycare is a little boy named Mike. Mike is older than Veda, bigger than Veda and as active as Veda. It is a common sight to see Veda and Mike crawling in circles or Veda Mike and Teddy standing together balancing themselves and jabbering away.

Veda taught Mike her fake laugh. One day Mike's mommy tells me they sync it up and keep laughing. I wasn't sure if she was happy with the fake laugh that Veda had taught Mike or not.

Mid February Katherine, Mike, Teddy and Gracie moved on to the crawler room and Veda was left behind :(. Poor Veda she had two girls for company, Olivia and Madison. They were nice but not as active as the bunch that had moved on. They liked to sit and watch the world go by. Veda continued to crawl around class and amuse herself, picking up her friend's pacifiers when they fell etc. Veda even made friends with a petite girl like herself, but a few months younger. The petite girl's name is Adelaine. Veda offered her friendship by feeding the baby a cheerio. Adelaine is a small baby, two or three months younger than Veda, and she could have choked on the Cheerio. Veda missed her old friends a lot. To make her feel better I started playing crawling and catching with her at home. She even started crying when we left her at daycare. This never happened when her buddies were around.

Finally in the first week of March the day came and Veda was taken to the crawler's room. Her older friends were happy to see her. Katherine said Hi to Veda. Teddy crawled to her, and Mike smothered her with wet sloppy kisses. Things were looking up in Veda's world. She was going to be back with her buddies and they would have good times together, playing crawling and catching, jamming oh what the heck she would even eat if all the kids were going to.

... on a different note maybe Adelaine will miss Veda and look towards joining her in the new class.
