I haven't been posting much of Mary lately, so, by request, here are some mundane domestic videos of Mary at 16 months old. They're definitely "grandparent videos," nothing dramatic or exciting!
I call this collection, "the early bird gets the worms." Mary woke up earlier than her brother, so got to play with the new toys from the consignment sale without duking it out with her brother.
Video #1: Mary might be trying to say 'baby.' Mary kisses her dolly.
Video #2. Mary says 'book' and 'truck,' maybe is trying to say 'baby,' and signs KITTY. Mary kisses her dolly.
Video #3: Mary vacuums with the $1 vacuum I bought at the sale.
Video #4: Mary tries to say 'baby.' I encourage her to sign ASLEEP, which she does not do. Mary kisses her own reflection. Look how sweetly Mary holds her doll! She's holding it like a baby much of the time, not like a toy to be dragged around.
Absolutely darling - thank you so much for giving us a glimpse of Mary's ordinary self today. You found some great things at the sale - I like the book with the baby faces!
ReplyDeleteFrances: Thanks! Yes, I love books with actual photos of animals and baby faces for children under about two years old.
