Out of the Mouth of Babes

Amara is going on 15 months – and cuter and more wonderful than ever. The latest of the marvels she has displayed is her exceptionally early use of the English language (demonstrating her above average intelligence). For some time now Grammy has been trying to get her to talk while on video – but alas, it is often hard to get children to perform for us adults on demand. David began early trying teach her to imitate speech at its finest. In this video Grammy got David to her get some of her first words on video.

As wonderful as this is – there is something nearer and dearer to my heart that she says. As with all adults nearest to the child, everyone has tried to get her to say their names. From the time she was born I always said to her: Grand – fah-therrrr. I never gave up. It has paid off! Much to Grammy’s dismay – it is Grandfather’s name that she now most often says.

O how I love that girl!

Here’s a few more glimspes of Amara’s 1st Family Camp…
David discovered Amara’s new favorite sport!

If you look at the Family Camp pictures you can see how happy she was anytime she got on that grass. After this, she didn’t want to sit with anyone. She wanted down!

This one is a little wonky at the end – the camera shows the recording as all right side up, but apparently it didn’t record that way!

Family Camp Pictures

Posted by: Doug in Family Pictures, Grand-Babies, Video

Grammy has now released her top 80 Family Camp pictures. Notice anything as a prominent theme, or her primary interest at camp??

Last night, at one point while looking at all of these pictures Grammy called out, “OOOOOOoooo I do love that child!”

Grammy is so fun!

It is always so much fun to be with children when they experience firsts in their lives. Oh boy! ice cream at the Tillamook Cheese Factory was fun. It was part of my 50th Birthday celebration!!!
