New tricks and fun sounds

I finally captured Donovan kicking the ball, he still gets distracted by the camera so this is the best we could get.


He is getting much faster at sliding around on his belly. I will look away for 2 seconds and he will be across the room. He especially likes to go to the door which isn't good because Brad often comes home at random times during the day. He almost hit Donovan with the door while I was eating breakfast this morning.

One of Donovan's most favorite things to do is stand up and walk around. He is so funny when we try to sit him down, he will keep his legs straight or walk backwards until we finally lay him on his back...then he just gets mad.

He is getting pretty good at holding himself up on different objects. The only time he falls is when he tries to turn around. He is already trying to be independent. He has even figured out how to lead us in the direction he wants to go when we are "walking" him. I have no doubt that he is going to be a handful. I like where he is now, because he will stand in his exersaucer while I work out in the morning and watch Baby Einstein. I guess I just might get enough of a work out running around trying to keep him out of stuff.

He is already showing us his big personality, he is going to be so much fun when he can talk. I can only imagine all the embarrassing and rude things he is going to say to people, especially if he listens to the things his dad says under his breath. He is just like Brad in almost every way, they both have fun personalities and they are both so silly and cute. They were so cute the other day, He was watching the Baby Einstein puppet show with his daddy and couldn't sit still, so he got stuck.Look at that face, how can you not fall in love with that?

Brad recently taught him a fun noise. He used to take Donovan's hand and do this to himself, so now Donovan does it by himself.


He is such a good looking little boy, I don't know if any girl will ever be good enough. Brad has already admitted that Donovan is already too cool for him and that he is going to be a total stud with the ladies...but I hope he ignores them all, in fact, I don't even want him to notice girls until he is at least 21.

He really is getting so big and already doing big boy stuff. I love the one of him kicking the ball he is already on his way to professional soccer!

Caleb's kids were here while Heather was at the dr. so we watched it together. Bry was so excited that he kicked the ball. The girls giggled at all the fun noises he can make. He is really a cute, busy boy- not to mention adorable! Thanks for all the video and sharing all his progress! Granny

Granny and Papa see visions of a rock star drummer! Look at that consistent beat on the coffee table. Combine that with the Guitar Hero stuff you guys do I can see it now... a drum set for our precious little grandchild to drive you guys nuts!!!

Fun videos, thanks for keeping us updated. It was fun watching the cousins and Tia watch this together.
