The first is Liam just getting up on his hands and knees and trying to figure out this whole crawling thing. In the second, Jackson is dinking around the driveway on his tricycle. I kept putting his feet on the pedals, but he had no interest in that. And, in the third, the boys share another fun bathtime, and Jackson seems to be singing, "Baby's gay! Baby's gay!" We don't know what he was really saying, but that's sure what it sounded like. Enjoy!
Jackson and Liam took their first bath together this evening. Liam was not thrilled about the bath ring at first, but as soon as Jackson started paying attention to him, he was all about it. Jackson was surprisingly more gentle and less rambunctious than he usually his during his solo baths.
There is a commercial with hamsters that comes on every now and then, and Jackson goes bananas over it. Love how he goes right back to his serious face as soon as the commercial is over. :)
PS - Sorry for the video quality. I had to lighten it, so it's a little fuzzy.
The first two videos are Liam playing around with his water mat at Johnny & Manya's house a few days ago. The third is both boys doing what they do in the living room this morning. Enjoy!
I was playing with Jackson in his room one day, and he kept going into the closet and making very strange noises. It may only be amusing to me, but I finally grabbed the video camera and recorded him for a bit. He also loves to throw open the doors and laugh - I'm surprised they haven't fallen off as violently as he does it sometimes.
For three months old, Liam already has loads of personality. He's very social and loves to smile and laugh and try to talk. This is just a short video of us having a conversation.
Another video of Jackson being a little odd and animated. While we were watching Jeopardy the other night (Jackson's most favorite show), a sunglasses commercial with Raquel Welch came on. Every time Jackson heard "Raquel Welch", he would pretend he was falling down on the dining room floor and say, "Ouch!" Of course, Jonathan kept rewinding on the Tivo, and Jackson kept falling down on the floor. He did it for a full five minutes before I grabbed the camera. Strange child.
Two short videos of Jackson at the parks. The first is my mom pushing Jackson on the swing - the poor kid's feet kept dragging. The second is a short video of the splash pad at Carl Cowan Park. If you look closely, you can spot Jackson skittering around. He's the only kid wearing shoes. You can also hear his squealing above all the other noise.
Jackson sings the Jeopardy theme! He started doing this a couple weeks ago - strange what kids pick up. Sorry for the poor lighting/sound quality. (Also, please pardon the crazy toy mess in the corner. We don't even try to pick it up before Jackson goes to bed.)
That weird lady named Mommy has figured out how to use the video feature on her camera. Yoiks! She will be updating this blog with those videos as she takes them. Watch me wiggle, shimmy, and shake my way through babyhood.
