Continuing the theme from yesterday, here's the front yard. This next video really gives insight into the baby world. If you watch Ren's face, you can sort of see what it's like when absolutely everything is interesting.
And the return trip.
Hello everyone. Last weekend (while I was at the grocery) Hiroko took Ren out to the yard to play,a nd took some videos as well. A couple fo these are pretty good.
This first one is in the backyard. Observant viewers will notice that we bought some patio furniture. Also, Ren is learning to "talk" all the time. Also, you can see Hiroko's shadow.
In this next one, Ren notices the neighbor dog. Not so much to see here.
Finally, more of Ren playing freely in the back yard. You can really see her motor skills and sense of autonomy.
Tomorrow or so, front yard.
Ren learned to walk. Lots of mini-films from around that time. Here we go.
Here's the very first walking video, in which Ren also demonstrates her toybox-emptying skills:
We thought a few steps were a big deal back then...now she walks everywhere. Anywhere, here's a few seconds later. Ren sure wants the camera:
Within a few days, as you can see in the following, she's learned to walk and use a cell phone at the same time. This will come on handy in High School:
And here's Ren stumbling about like a drunken sailor, and attacking mommy:
Finally, just a quick movie I did of Ren playing with a plastic top, which I found funny:
It's obviously, like, a month late. Hiroko bought a pair of bunny ears around Easter. I would have thought this would just psych a baby out, but Ren loved these, on either us or her. Here are some pictures of her wearing them in this set.
