When Jason did something bad, sometimes we used to say “Why did you do that?”
In the past few weeks he has been picking up a lot more words and phrases and this has become one of his favorite. Whenever he makes a mess or does something mischievous, he says “Why Did?”
Here is a video of him after he turned off my computer. He also recently had his second haircut.
Just a quick video that I really like. Jason is eating some avocado while music is playing. (It is one of my favorite CDs of all time: Star by Belly from 1993).
Lately, he wants to take the telephone or video camera every time he sees us using it. I had to sneak up on him to get him on video before he noticed.
He’s been growing up fast. He says many different words and has many fun ways of playing and expressing himself. He says “blueberry”, “strawberry”, “apple”, “don’t”, “did”, “no”, “yeah”, “baby”, “up”, “down”, “water”, “on”, “go”, “hi”, “bye”, “this”, “ball”, “gimme” “done” “wow” and some words he made up himself like “bebo”, “onie” and “dowa”. There are many more words that he can say and understand, with the list growing every day. He also tries to repeat things we say, even if he doesn’t know what the words mean yet.
For playing, he likes to put on Mom’s slippers and walk around the house. Lately he has also been taking my place at the computer every time I leave my chair. He has been a great help and an asset to the business!
Below are two pictures of his favorite household activities and a video from today. Enjoy! (In the video, the house is a mess because I was babysitting.)
Today I watched Jason while Hristina went to my cousin’s wedding shower. We had a fun day, which included a walk to Starbucks, playing outside, running around inside, and a little bit of dancing.
I also finally took the time to figure out how to transfer and edit videos from the new video camera I bought Hristina for her birthday. Before this, we were using a Flip video camera, which is actually much easier to use for editing and uploading.
Here’s a video of Jason dancing. Don’t mind the mismatching socks… I dressed him today. He’s holding the (missing) sock and a wooden letter block from his bench.
The song is from Toad the Wet Sprocket. Hristina and I recently saw the lead guy Glen Phillips perform in Tarrytown from front row seats.
