My first laughs
Here is a picture of me at two months old laughing for the first time. This shows my temperment as light-hearted and happy during my Social development. -
I go to work
I am pictured here in my parent's office playing with toys and taking in my surroundings.This is displaying the Sensorimotor stage of my cognitive development. -
The Alpaca
Finally tall enough to ride the alpaca at the petting zoo! The long awaited award made me regret what I wished for as I battled the alpaca's distinct odor. My long awaited growth spurt is a perfect example of physical development. -
Door County
Me on my first vacation to Door County, Wisconsin. Here I am putting on an extra pair of sandals against my parent's will. At this age I should be in the preconventional stage of my moral development, but the risk of punishment was worth it, for I needed a pair of "sand-shoes". -
I'm doing it!
This picture of me learning to ride the bike encapsulates my Industry vs. Inferiority stage in my Social development. I am displaying industry here because after this event I never doubted my ability to be successful. -
The Indulged one...
At Disney world I wanted a lot of things, and as pictured here I got most of the pirate stuff I could've wanted. My parents used a permissive -indulgent style of parenting on this trip, influencing my social development. -
Ahoy Sailor!
This is a picture of me on lake Michigan, steering full fledged sailboat tour! I even learned some new nautical terms, improving my language development. -
Howdy, Pardner
It's my first year of adolescence and my moral development is at the conventional stage. We are in Santa Fe touring the famous Canyon Road art galleries. I knew not to touch anything or be disruptive because I wanted eveyone to know I was more than just a "kid". -
Growing up
This was the summer before eigth grade where I actually grew four inches. Here I am toward the end of the summer in Boulder Colorado standing tall at 5 foot 8. I also began growing facial hair that summer, a secondary sex characteristic. -
To Kyak or not to Kyak?
On our vacation to Booth Bay Harbor in Maine, the resort had kyaks you could take out onto the bay. I was apprehensive at first, but I displayed that I was int he Formal-Operational stage of my cognitive development by realizing I may not get the chance to see the Harbor and it's beauty that close up again. So I did it and got soaked in the process!
