Jamaica baby

Here are a few video clips of Samantha having fun at FDR Pebbles in Jamaica.

She had a blast in the baby pool:





She was just THRILLED by the beach and the waves:





And she loved jammin to the reggae beat:



Good times were had by all! I already can't wait to go back...

Daddy is so funny!

The title speaks for itself. Hope you get a chuckle from this one! (Hokie fans: take note of her outfit)

Highchair Highlights: "Apple" and Some Silliness

Here's a short clip of Samantha saying one of her favorite words - "apple" - which also happens to be one of her favorite things to eat (so we hear it a lot, though usually not as well enunciated as here):


And I couldn't resist posting this little bit of silliness:

More Walking!

Oh, the joy of becoming upwardly mobile! Whoever thought we'd spend hours just watching Samantha walk/run around?!?! I don't who's more entertained (Samantha or her parents) by her racing all over the house;-) Here are a few more clips of her evolving talent - which is big excitement in our house!

Splashing Queen

Here's a little video of Samantha having fun in the tub.

Bongo Dance

Here is a clip of Samantha doing her Bongo Dance:

Almost Walking!

We've been having a blast watching Samantha learn to walk over the past few weeks. She's been getting more daring the past few days; she's really starting to cover some territory, and she is oh so proud of herself! Here are a couple of video clips taken yesterday.

She tends to build up speed as she walks, which posed some logistical problems:



Later we moved into the hallway to give her some more space:



She's making progress every day, so we'll post more soon...
