On November 22, 1996 I made my world debut.
Cameras were flashing, and a few tears were shed too.
On November 29 , I showed daddy my first smile .
December 6 , I rode in the stroller awhile.
December 10 , brought my first bath in a tub.
It made me want to scream ‘rub-a-dub-dub!
The eleventh of December was a big day.
I took my first trip to the park to play.
January 16 , I did my impression of our dog, Rover.
Daddy cheered as he saw me roll over .
Mommy, Daddy, and I traveled to McDonald’s to eat a bite,
When on February 26 , I laughed with all my might.
March 25 brought something brand new.
I got cereal all over me and ate some too.
I was at Mimi’s house on April Fool’s Day ,
When I discovered peek-a-boo was the game to play.
On April 9 , Mommy grabbed the phone.
She called to tell Daddy I could sit alone .
On Mother’s Day , I took my first trip to the zoo .
I was entranced with colorful fish and the ceiling fans, too.
On July 21 , I sat like a brave, little boy,
So after my first haircut , I got a new toy!
By August 9 , I could get my hands on all the loot.
I didn’t really crawl ; it’s more like a scoot.
It was August 14 when I became a talented guy.
We were at Grammy’s house when I first waved bye-bye .
On September 9 , my coordination decided to shine,
That’s the first day I stood alone , looking fine.
On October 3 , I was feeling cranky and crappy,
But when Mommy saw my first tooth she looked happy.
November 16 , I took my first steps – one, two, three.
So watch out world, ‘cause now I’m free!
I know it appears I’ve done all my firsts just right,
but Mommy is wondering when will I sleep through the night!
I wrote this for my son's first birthday and gave out with the inviitations to have a record of all his "firsts".
