he just loves to climb. And is actually getting quite good, but what's great is he seems to know his limit. At the end of this video, he starts to get down (bearing in mind he is about 2ft up) he sat on the bar holding the one in front and sort of jump swung to the ground. Even he looked shocked that he pulled it off. Of course I stopped recording to spot him.
Also he is in love with the idea of bikes and trikes. He's seen bikes before but he really noticed the kids riding them at the park. In fact he chased after several, and if he'd caught up I think he might have tried to ride on the handle bars :-) Maybe we'll get him one to stimulate the economy ,plus I like the idea of a parent handle.

Zach snoring, recorded just before we headed off on our travels:
And playing with the washing machine, in england. I just love that everytime it stops he looks away only to be drawn back in as soon as it spins again. Sorry I put the camera around the wrong way again.
And the first in a series of cornish video's of Zachary's new skills.

Bad Mommy, No posting
At least Mark keeps up with the pictures and videos. And we know that's what you come here for, so I don't feel that bad.
Big adventures in Zachary land. He now eight months old (on friday the 13th, a lucky day for most). Motion has become the new thing, and he's alllll over the place. i'm terrified because I know its only a question of days before he realizes this... if he lifts his belly off the ground, he'll go fast. I keep threatening to get out the ankle weights to slow him down. I think this might be the new trend in babyproofing. You heard it here first.
Food is becoming common place. He's not superkeen on the mushy veg (no real surprise here, is there? Is anyone keen on mushy veg? Please english people. Do not comment. You only developed mushy peas to hide their sketchy several day old nature. Not because they were meant to be eaten that way.) But he is enjoying yogurt the last few days. And we've gone for bits of bread too. We figure that'll help us be ready for our upcoming trip. Because we hear french & english supermarkets may not have rice chex. Please don't tell Zachary. He will be heartbroken. It is his first addiction. Mark was giving him some yogurt for dinner (which he was grooving on, as well as he can groove when totally exhausted). And I got out the box of chex to give him a few to round out his meal. He heard the crinkle of the inner bag and the shake of the box and he snapped out of his crazy baby zone out. He suddenly swivelled around with eagle eyes and was like I KNOW THAT SOUND. He watched me without blinking till I sacrificed a few chex his way. He snatches them up like they are going out of style.
In other news, today we went to Daniel & Jorge's wedding at Rodeph Sholom (our temple). It was absolutely fantastic. Zachary danced his first hora, saw his first chuppah, and in general rejoiced with the Groom & Groom. He behaved, and got a spin in the temple mini gym. Just the nursery school play room, but lots of roly poly furniture and foam things to climb on. Lots of babies and fun, exactly how weddings are meant to be. Thanks, guys :) Michigan is lucky to have you.
On that note, off to bed. Carrying a 25lb baby, no matter how cheerful he is? That'll make your arms tired. At least he holds on to help.

Zachary's New Trick
It is called "Pull up on the couch to try and eat mommy's computer"
Ok, not a snappy name. But let me tell you, our plan this weekend was to do a heavy second babyproofing sweep (everything waist height down pretty much needs to be baby safe or away) and this just reinforced the urgency.
I was brushing my teeth and we were getting ready to head to school and usually he's content spinning on his belly for the thirty seconds I was out of the room. Hahahahaha... Man, this will not get better until he goes away to college, will it?

sunday was a little chilly but we went on a wander .... we all needed out of the house pretty badly, and at least the sun was out. Off to the swings we went! First time and lots of fun. There are lots of other pictures if you click through. Zachary giggled and giggled as we pushed him higher. Wheeee...
Also, I'd like to draw your attention to the snazzy new list off to the upper right...
:)
Happy monday everyone.
