while waiting to iron out a tech kink with ‘the birds - part II’, here is “the flying giggles” care of gma (from jan).
the birds - part I: in which the bean is taken to the park to see up close the birds she’s been waving at obsessively through the window ever since gma mindie taught her how important it was to say hi to them several times a day.. so she finds herself face to face with the birds she’s been stalking for weeks, equipped with a piece of bread to offer them in friendship, which she of...

they don’t show up very well depending on yr connection speed / browser but the vid is called ‘finger puppet fight’ because i’m whipping finger puppets at the bean and berto. and she finds it to be fairly hilarious. what a bean.

and the ‘action film’ for this week.. A did her first roll over on the pediatrician’s table about a month ago, and once or twice chez l’assistante maternelle, but never in front of us at home.. today was the day she did it. but of course we didn’t catch it on camera. here is the 99% roll over that we did catch..
… some pre-crawl floor time (knee pads from gma mindie on, check)
ALSO involving screaks..
i have to say that a lot of the time she really is just kind of chill, contemplative, content to chew and observe.. but we are also in a serious screaking phase. and kind of loving the contrast..
aaaand the sequel to ‘day screaks’.. in which the bean has the screaks but also gets an attack of the hiccups. part1
aaand part2 of hiccuping screaks.
and the much-awaited follow up from ‘night screaks’..
let’s call this one day screaks…
or, soundtrack to my life these days.
this one’s called ‘night screaks’, which has suddenly reminded me of that tragically hip song.. (oh god mom yr so old and canadian.. )
and altho the vid quality is really bad b/c it was duskish, i think it’s still worth a listen..
it’s like a hybrid old horror movie nature documentary, because you hear this high pitched squeak, and it brings you down the hallway...
place en crèche!!!!
woop woop we just found out we got a place in daycare for A in september!
it’s only a block away, is brand spankin new (pink mosaic motif, photo incoming), and cheaper than our current mode de garde.. here comes intensive socialisation and germ exposure and being at the mercy of their hours and strikes and rules*. yay!
info meeting in a week or so, to find out what else we can look forward...
+ here’s the official reaction to ‘manamana’… [play]
