Sarah Swings, Hunts, Flies...and Crawls!!!

One of Sarah's favorite new "chill out" activities is riding on a swing at the park. We go every weekend. Check out that tongue...





Sarah hunts for and catches her favorite prey...Daddy's toe. Which has to be in a sock. And wiggling...



Sarah Takes to the skies, and shows how much she loves to fly (flight is, of course, Daddy-powered)...




And now, the moment you've all been waiting for...Sarah's first crawl! Ok, so she's not ready to enter the baby Olympics. But we're talking forward freakin' progress here! (Baby-proofers, start your engines!)

Mid-July update

It's been a while, so here are some lovely video highlights of our little Mooks...

We start out with a classic. Sarah reads her little toy book (a part of her activity center). Of course, every word in the book is "Mama(mamamama)" and the book is only slightly more interesting than Spongebob Squarepants (audible in the background)...




Next up is Sarah playing peekaboo, and showing off her most mobile move - the reverse and rotate. The cool thing about this one is that she has mastered peekaboo so much, she knows how to reveal her own hidden face...




Next up is Sarah showing off some more of her "mad skillz." Here she sits on the bench of a new toy she got. The idea behind this toy is you can reconfigure it to age with the child. But sitting on the bench like this...that's not supposed to happen for another two months! She makes us so proud!




Now some proof that Sarah is daddy's little girl. See how she reacts to eating veggies - here, sweet corn. One of mommy's favorites. Not so for daughter...



Finally, one of those video moments that will have to resurface when Sarah's the perfect age to be utterly embarassed...here she is sitting on the "big girl" side of her baby bath tub. As you can see, she likes to splash, and to play with (read, "eat") the toy fishhook attached to the tub.



That's all for now. We'll keep pointing that video camera any time it looks like something cute is about to happen...
