Randomness

It's been a while since we've done a decent blog post of random pictures.  These pictures date from early May until early June.  A couple of fun videos are included as well.

Andrew got a new swing for his birthday,
and we hung it below our deck downstairs.
He loves swinging down there.

Playing in the swings at the park.

Just being adorable.

Playing in his new water table.

We added some play balls to a little play
pool on the back deck.  Andrew can't
get enough of that!

Playing in the ball pit at the baby gym.

Being cute while making a mess of his snack...
on the floor.

Sometimes, after a long, hard day, you just want
do drop into your favorite chair and watch
TV.  This was after a particularly trying day.
He just sat still in his chair for a while
watching Baby Einstein.

This video is Andrew climbing at the baby gym.  he has mastered the nearly-vertical wooden ladder.  This isn't the best video...he can usually get up this thing in about 10 seconds, then he usually climbs up onto the rungs of the play structure after that.  He's been able to climb this for over a month now.  This kid LOVES climbing!  In the second half of the video, he is starting to walk on an open-rung horizontal ladder.  We haven't managed to get a video of it yet, but he can make it all the way to to the play structure on this.  Pretty impressive for a 13-month old!

Emily got a big present for her birthday, and in the box was a lot of packing paper.  As you can see, this put Andrew in heaven!
