Sammy the Nutcracker
Sammy loves to dance since he’s been training at his daycare for a Christmas show, which will be tomorrow. Melissa and I figured out something was up back in early November when Sam would start dancing to the music from his toys. He would just bust out some moves we had never taught him or seen him do elsewhere. It was really fun to see him go and was a genuine surprise to us… One of those special moments you can’t plan for. Well, I finally managed to catch Sam in the act last weekend at my parents. My Dad, a Christmas junkie, has a singing snowman that belts out Jingle Bells with accompaniment from his dog. You start the thing by pressing the snowman’s hand and the good times start. Sam figured this out quickly enough, and once the power to command was in his hands, there was no stopping him! Dance Sammy dance!!!
You may have noticed the speakers on the singing toy start screeching some static, that’s because Sam played it so often, the speakers are starting to suffer some wear and tear! Go Sammy go! Wrecking Granpa’s Xmas toys!!!
So Sam is told to put the toy back, which is where he brings it towards the end of the vid… right back where he found it! Also notice Sam almost losing control in his spinning and getting dangerously close to the village that took me six hours to set up!
Have a great weekend folks!
Giggle-Puss!
Sam and I were alone together in the house last week, which might be cause for alarm as we do some pretty cooky things when Mom’s out.
While feeding Sammy-boy his supper, I noticed he was in a giggling mood. Everything I did, he would giggle. So, naturally, like any concerned parent, I checked his milk and food for any traces of wacky tabacky, but no, it was clean. I guess he was just in a funny mood, which is not odd for him, just surprising at that time because when he’s eating, it’s usually all business until he’s full.
The setup is pretty simple, Sam’s in his high-chair and I’m jumping out from behind a wall while making funny faces and noises I don’t do when Mom’s around
Enjoy! Oh and pardon my big arse at the end of the clip.
Keep laughing people! Blog ya soon!
Sammy Eats it All… Except Broccoli!
Sam loves food. Melissa and I love food, so I guess Sam picked that up from us. Now I know all babies love food. It’s one of the three main activities they can do: eat, sleep and sh*t. But Sammy-boy takes it to another level. This kid shovels folks, he doesn’t eat. Daintiness is a lesson lost on this guy when the chow lands on his plate. Grabbed by the handfuls and pulled into his semi-toothed maw, Sam consumes with a fury not known to nature. He claims every last bit of sauce, food particle or crumb on his fingers. Sam even goes as far as getting all four fingers in his mouth to ensure that no survivors remain. This kids an athlete. He could go pro next year.
But the thing that makes us laugh is that during the whole “eating us out of house and home” thing, he talks. He just goes on and on blabbing until he’s done eating. This can stretch up to an hour! Between every chew, before and after every breath, he just has to make a noise cause he’s so happy to be eating.
Just to sum up: he won’t shut up.
It’s not pretty to watch sometimes, but man is he passionate about his food! It’s a good thing Mom is a great cook… and Dad’s not too shabby either!
Just check out the video below instead, and watch Sam at his dining finest!
Take care and eat well!
