9 months.
Dear Holly,
As I carry you around through the house on a daily basis, as if my arms are your own personal flying throne like C-3PO had in Return of the Jedi, I am constantly (and perhaps involuntarily) streaming a series of praise phrases to you.
One that I catch myself saying a lot is, “What’s Little Sweetie gonna do today?”
This is a fact: You are a particularly sweet strawberry-blonde 9 month old daughter. Even when you’re mad, it’s simply hilarious. But you really only get upset about funny stuff.
Like last night, Mommy handed you over to me after she realized you had too much energy to fall asleep at your normal bedtime. So I laid down on your bedroom floor, and just let you repeatedly crawl over me. You loved proving to yourself you can cross the terrain of my chest, time after time.
But after nearly 30 minutes, you had finally worn yourself out. It was like you got upset that your arms were too tired to pull yourself up and that your head keep falling on me too.
You got mad because you ultimately had too much fun.
I always love to see “what Little Sweetie is going to do today.”
One of the things you love to do is to take a ride on my Simply Fit board, which I ordered after seeing it featured on an episode of Shark Thank. You think it’s normal to hold on and get a tour of the bonus room upstairs.
I never had to teach you to do this. You just saw it one day, and then looked at me as if to day, “Okay, Daddy, I’m ready to ride it!”
It makes me wonder how many other infants appreciate the thrill of their Daddy pulling them around on a Simply Fit board.
You and I both like to keep things interesting. We’re a good match.
Love,
Daddy
Haha, nice post!
The idea with the simply fit board is great, I’ll have to try that too. Hope my little one will like it. But I’m confident as she likes almost everything that moves 🙂

I made a little review of the board before I bought it, maybe you’ll find it interesting: https://tomlikesbest.com/simply-fit-board-review-how-good-is-it-really/
