Practice Makes Perfect

Since I can't figure out how to share videos through email, the blog seems to be easiest way to make the videos of Eli easy for people to see. We seem to be taking more and more video these days as Eli gets more and more mobile. It's funny to think back to the days when he just ate, pooped and slept. Now he seems so active in comparison and I can barely get him to stay still...although CNN or BBC seem to do the trick.

Eli's been really determined lately to get this crawling thing mastered. He'll "chase" after anything we put in front of him. On Sunday it was his package of new diapers that caught his eye, this morning it was a random toy. But regardless of what it is, he goes after it with such gusto and strength. We are realizing that Eli has superbaby strength that can prove hazardous at times. This weekend he broke one of the plastic toys on the Baby Einstein Exersaucer in half - literally with just his brute force. I don't think that is supposed to happen! So we know that when he really gets on the move we're going to have to lock down or hide everything in sight. Recently fistfuls of my hair, or even my face have fallen victim to Eli's strength. Watch out world!
