I would walk five hundred miles…

Casey,

You walked a city block a few weeks ago. It was insane. Not just any city block, one of the long Richmond blocks. You walked from Fulton to Cabrillo all on your own, and you got pissed that we didn’t let you walk further.

Why didn’t we?

Well, it took you 20 minutes to walk that block. Let me elucidate here:

  • Your legs are little. You take teensy steps that are cute and adorable but aren’t exactly fast transport
  • You are experiencing so much as new, you want to look at everything. And point at everything. And smell everything. And touch everything. Including things you shouldn’t touch.
  • You didn’t realize we had a destination, so you backtracked, a lot. It was cute at first. Really, it was.
  • You apparently really want to break into other people’s homes, and kept on trying to climb up to their front door. This is troubling - please do not become a criminal in the future.

The videographic evidence:

Swings

Seriously cute, Casey.

We took these at the park on Lincoln near 19th Ave. You were so tired you were dilerious. But you still didn’t want to let us take you out of the swings.

It’s hard to time a picture on the iPhone, the shutter speed is terribly slow. I took some 20 pics of you, and these were the best.

Hugs,
-Oz

Playing Catch-up

For those who have not been harassed by me about these things, Casey has a whole slew of new little random Baby Tricks that I am amused by.

  • Casey is now knocking on closed doors.  Makes a little fist and everything.  Not entirely sure why.  Lesli believes this is because Casey noticed Lesli knocks on the door of the people she nannies for and they open the door.  It does make me wonder, though - what does she expect to happen there?  Who does she expect to open the door?
  • She knows how to turn on and off her CD player.  She has one that is loaded with a CD that plays lullabies, and has learned how to press play, pause, and increase the volume.  Which is about as much fun as you can imagine.
  • Speaking of doors, as I mentioned before, she’s actually gotten quite good at closing doors.  Which can turn into quite the fruitless exercise.

That is all.  I’ll post some videos soon, I swear.  Good times.
