John and I finally purchased a camcorder this weekend. It isn't super fancy, just something to catch funny moments that we see on a day to day basis. Our kids are friggin' HILARIOUS, and we want to be able to share these hilarities with our family and friends.

This first video is of Christian. Christian has a certain obsession with our cat Purdee. Luckily, Purdee is extremely patient.



In this video, Manny is sharing his "candy" with John and I, John suggests that he shares the "candy" with Christian, and you'll see what happens when Christian reaches for the "candy".



Christian is a very talkative child. He babbles to himself constantly. He has gotten into the habit if "yelling". When he yells, Manny feels the need to reciprocate and starts yelling too.






Baby Food Diaries
I have been making Christian's baby food this time around. So far he enjoys most anything (minus peas). This past week I made carrots/parsnips, sweet potato/grapes, butternut squash/pumpkin, and I will be making apples/blueberries in the next day or so.

I have also introduced plain yogurt, and will be making lentils. I'll let you know how those go over when he tastes them.

In the last couple of days, Christian has started crawling with his tummy off of the floor (versus the army crawl), he is also pulling himself up onto our furniture, and has ventured taking a couple of steps here and there. He still lacks the coordination, but you gotta give him an "A" for effort.

Christian has also learned how to push himself up from crawling to sitting. I swear this kid will be walking before he turns a year old....scary.
