Peekaboo!

Image
We spent a lot of time over the weekend playing Peekaboo! Not sure whether he was pretending to hide at this point - or whether he was just trying to look cute - but we had a lot of fun pretending.

Best Mates

Rupert and C are best mates. They play at the park together (see above) and are the only two who don't cry at swim lessons. Today, they worked their magic at the local fete- The Church of the Boltons Summer Fayre. The associated parents just drank a bit of Pimms.

New pix in flicks

I've uploaded some new pictures into Flickr. Just click on the flickr logo for a slide show.

Happy Fathers Day

C, the little whippersnapper, took it upon himself to create a HAPPY FATHERS DAY video for both of the grandfathers. He single-handedly created the props, set, directed the takes, read several books on "method acting" prior to a rigorous shooting schedule, and finally contracted out the voice over. The only payment he wanted was full rights to thoroughly gum the prop after shooting. Our love to the respective fathers.

Version 2

This snippit was taken with our camera. Just click the white triangle at the bottom. This also includes the famous Eton Toy from an earlier post.

Our First Video

Here's a test of our first video. This was taken with my phone just yesterday. If this works, then there's more where that came from...

Lunch

Few foodstuffs provide all-over body covering like fish pie. After this feed, not only did I wash his hands and face, I also stripped him down (incoluding his nappy) and gave him a shower.

Standing room only

Ever since he's got more mobile on his stomach, he has asked to be walked around more too. Here he is with Mummy.

Combat crawler

Image
He's started to go forward a lot more confidently now on his stomach. He still needs a bit of encouragement, and can get a touch frustrated, but he's getting there. Here he is on his way across to the carpet.

I'm stuck, Mummy

When you're trying to figure out how to combat-crawl, you don't want to get backed into a corner. Here's the boy under the desk in our sitting-room. He also had a go at some bottom-shuffing today as well, but ended up going in circles. Very frustrating being six and a half months old.
