Belle kissed a boy today. Really she licked his cheek, but that's a kiss to a baby. There is a little boy who just turned one who seems to be intrigued by Belle. In music class this past Thursday, he crawled right up to her face and just sort of stared at her. It looked as if he was going to kiss her, but one-year-olds don't usually kiss. Well, today we were enjoying a wonderful outdoor first birthday party in Central Park and Belle and this young man were crawling around a picnic blanket together. Again, the little boy crawled right up to Belle's face. This time, Belle turned and licked his cheek. To a nine-month-old, a lick is a kiss. So, well, Belle had her first kiss today.
And then she discovered what was just beyond the picnic blanket: dirt and twigs and patches of grass. And they were all delicious! We wanted her to crawl and enjoy being outdoors, but keeping the twigs out of her mouth became an intense job. And with her hands covered in dirt, those Cherrios and blueberries apparently became a delectable taste treat. A little dirt never hurt anyone, right?
Happy birthday to little Sam! What a fun birthday party :)
