"Three New Eli Videos for $200."
I posted a blog on Tuesday about Eli's long-awaited milestone of rolling from his stomach to his back, and then his ability to spin in circles. This has continued, and today he finally demonstrated that he can roll even with the bar. Bad news for him: this means I will no longer be conned by his "help me" cries when he's rolled over in his crib.
Eli has also developed the greatest belly laugh (and I'm not biased because I'm his mom), so I also posted a video clip of that today.
A Monkey
For some reason Eli has a fascination with scratching the top of his head. I had him in his blue chair this week and couldn't resist capturing it on film. He gives the strangest look and then throws his hand over his head and scratches, exactly like the primates you might find in your local zoo.
A Caterpillar
When my mom and nephew visited us in March, they stopped at Cracker Barrell and picked out a crazy caterpillar toy for Eli. It's cute, and it moves, but it is CRAZY loud and there is no volume control. (Lehr and I think it is loud; Grandma says we're just getting started with the loud toys.) The other day when Eli was fussier than normal, I pulled the noise-maker out and turned on the camera. Just by luck the toy went right to Eli at which point he picked it up and started to inspect it. He seemed quite confused by the way it moved...
A Wild Tongue
I just uploaded a clip of Eli in his high chair not attempting at all to control his tongue and his urge to smack his lips. I'm not sure where he picked this up, since this is one of the few odd noises I haven't demonstrated for him. I can only guess that he's gaining more control over how his tongue and mouth work, and he wanted to show it off. He's been doing this for about a week now, in and out of his high chair, along with some crazy 'pppbblllllll' noises (think an elephant). Unfortunately, Eli knows when the camera is on and he refuses to perform.
