The ProjectWith a methodical precision that may border on obsessive compulsive, Gabe carefully placed all of the toys that he had out under the baby's bouncy chair. When I asked him, "Why?" he only looked at me as if to say, "Because SOMEBODY has to do it."
He started with the stuffed animals, which he carefully crammed under the back of the chair. He even took the time to make sure he wasn't missing any of them in the bottom of his basket before moving onto the next step. Then his Sesame Street K'Nex followed (Earnie, Oscar, and Cookie Monster, which are, incidentally, his favorite toys right now. He has yet to actually attempt putting any individual character together. Instead, he likes to create variations on the Ernoskie Monster, sticking random pieces together in every which order and arrangement). This was followed by what cars and trains he had out (he hadn't yet stuffed the tracks under, as you can see them sitting in front still).
Then, when he was done, he found his little Cabbage Patch baby (which I've named Sean Astin because that name was similar to the ridiculous name the company had given him, and he sort of looks like Sean Astin, I think), who was stuffed in the pile in the back, pulled him out, and carefully placed him in the bouncy chair, because that's where the baby goes. It was all very cute, if, possibly, a bit worrisome. He has, apparently, progressed beyond stacking up various stuffed animals on TOP of the baby to entertain her, to cramming as much stuff UNDER her as possible. I'll certainly have to keep a close eye on how this develops, lest she end up perching on top of an inevitable avalanche of toys.
And then I have a few videos to share. Nothing TOO spectacular.

We got a little more video of Button laughing. Her laugh is developing nicely, but I'd still say it falls into the category of "a little creepy." Also, Libby's lips haven't had a workout like this since we first started dating. Booyah! (Note: I am not entirely sure what that is meant to imply, since it wasn't like she was giving me lots of zerberts at the time--you ponder on its possible application.)
A video of Gabe trying to make shoes out of the containers his Seasame Street characters come in. Though it would have made for good video, nothing really THAT entertaining happened. Not for his lack of trying, though.
