Wagon Train

One more post for tonight. Our little guy has just started doing so many funny things, and for the first time in a while I've actually been able to catch them on video.

The story behind this one: He has a little red chair that he loves to push around the house, unfortunately, we have carpet every where but the kitchen and the bathrooms, so it's pretty much impossible for him to maneuver the chair any where but the kitchen.

Today he put some of his toys on the chair and started trying to push it around the living room and got mad. So I got one of his wagons out and put the toys in there for him. Now he has a new favourite game!

Go Dogs!

My parents are UGA fans, and while we were staying with them, they got Samuel a football that plays the UGA fight song, and says "GO DOGS!"

He's been saying the word 'dog' for quite some time now, but a few weeks ago Samuel started saying "Go Dogs", or at least what sounds pretty close to it, after the fight song finished playing. I finally caught it on video tonight:

Uba, notice that he's wearing his shirt you got him for the full effect :)

Yum. Yum.

So.....We're still working on the utensil thing....right now they are more for drumming and throwing... But yesterday Bill was feeding him some applesauce as an appetizer to tide him over until I had dinner finished, and Samuel started using his teether as a spoon! - well... at least as a mechanism to move the food from the tray to his mouth....

At least it's progress... right?

(FYI: the background noise is Pirates of the Caribbean....We were all so engrossed with his new eating skills we blocked it out, until I started to post the video....)

Our Little Comedian...

Samuel has started playing new games, and one of his favorites is to pretend to be different Sesame Street Characters. - He has a floor puzzle mat that has several of the monsters and he and his Daddy have worked up quite a routine. They were at the end of their performance when I finally arrived with the camera, but here is a glimpse of our Clifton-style theatre:
