Hello Poogie,
your new trick for this week is improved communication.
We now definitely have “Mama”, “Dada”, “there” and that’s about it verbally that we can make out. But this weekend you added three hand movements: (more…)
We need a new kitchen. AKA Baby Climbing Alert. – Movie Monday February 22, 2010
Hello Poogie,
So. I made a plan to redo our kitchen at some point – it’s all open shelving. But I was kinda hoping I would have had a few more months. But no. Open shelving about 40 cm off the ground is of course prime target for a crawling baby who has learned to pull himself up in his cot this week. I turned around today and there you were: upright and enjoying yourself. The camera was beside me so I got it on film. I guess today’s adventure was just the start:
The end of the shelving in the video is all just books. But all the crockery, pots, pans and an assortment of other random stuff is out there in the open. Waiting for a marauding eight-month-old to pull it all down right on his head.
Righto. New kitchen planning commencing…
aaaaagh..
love mum
Blowing Raspberries – Movie Monday February 15, 2010
Hello Poogie!
I’m going to try to put a movie up some/most mondays. Movie Monday.
Today is one of your tricks: blowing raspberries. You learnt this one a few weeks ago now. I was astounded when you first started it – you frequently surprise me with your ability to learn new things and pick things up that I thought would take a lot longer. We’ve been blowing raspberries on you since day one, so I guess it makes sense that you’d learn them straight-up.
I tried to get footage of you in your favourite raspberry-blowing position – in the bed with us. But it just ended up a bit wrong – I’m not sure everyone wanted to see my boobs flash by the camera repeated times as I lurched up to pull you off where you’d climbed on the “mum climbing frame” as you attempted to get to better raspberry-blowing position. So I’ve scrapped that video and gone for the “on the legs on the kitchen floor” version. Much less the wrong-pornographic home-style and more of the family-blog style effect.
Love you
mum
