Christmas in Michigan video dump

Over Christmas, we spent about a week in Michigan at my (David's) parent's house visiting with family there.   Below of some of the videos that were taken.  Caleb and Timothy had a good time playing with each other as much as one-year-olds are able. It was wonderful to have everyone together.

Timothy and Caleb playing with their new walker toys that GG (Great Grandma McClure) got them for Christmas.

Sometimes, you just have to be a little silly to get that photo you want.  This was one of those times.

Even though he is walking on his own, Timothy still believes walking with someone is far superior. 

Caleb was born on Christmas, and Timothy was born on Jan 9th.  As such, they celebrated a combined birthday while we were in Michigan.  Here, they are playing together with some of their new toys.

Singing that good ol' song.

Timothy and Grandma O walking his alligator toy around the house.

"Here's another video of our baby walking!"  Yeah, we're those parents now.

As with all our videos, these have been uploaded in high-def for those with high speed internet access or lots of patience.

Timothy hanging out with Great Grandma McClure.

Timothy works the crowd with his mad Peak-a-boo skills.

Yeah, this video isn't very exciting, but buying beef 70lbs at a time is.

Practicing for  upcoming walking.

Learning how to turn.

WALKING!  This video is from just a few days ago.

EDIT:

Somehow, I missed this video, which is a crime, since it's one of my favorites from this batch.  Chronologically, this should go just before the WALKING! video, as it takes place about a week ago.

I know we are really behind on posting both updates and videos.  This will get us caught up on all the latest videos anyway.  Note: all of these videos are uploaded in high def, so if you want to see more details, jump over to youtube (click the youtube logo in the bottom left), and change it from 360p to 1080p.

First up, here is Timothy with his Great Grandma McClure and Grandma O'Neill in St Joseph.  This was taken on his 5 month birthday (June 9th).

Ada's new tricks

As part of her recent doggy obedience class, Ada learned two new tricks. We had to choose one captured action. A captured action is taking a behavior she does on her own, and train her to do it on command. We choose stretch for that.



For the other trick, we taught her "Fetch your toy and put it in the basket."
