Friday-9:30am: Ian's first videos :)

Ian McGregor 
A little over one month old.
I'd never used this particular camera to shoot a video and didn't even know how to start recording. It's Leah old one so she told me which lever to slide to where.  When I took the video, though, the camera was on some crazy setting where it only captured the yellows and greens--LOL!  But since this was my very first video of him...well, I kept it, of course.  ;)

Leah fixed the setting for me and we suddenly had color--tada!  Now you can see the chatty, wiggly little boy who has stolen our hearts in true color.

Have a great weekend!!
Happy Friday from Fargo.  
:) :) :)

What a sweet baby! Congrats again, Rita—and my congrats to his mom and dad, too. :)

I have a new one as well. My baby girl was born on April 3. That's why I haven't been posting as much lately. :)

Hope you have a great weekend!

I think we saw him poop in the second picture. I could be wrong, of course, but his expression at one point looked like concentration then "ahhhhh" then he cried. He is so cute!!!!

I remember in-utero (sp?) hiccups.

Janie Junebug said...

The Hurricane always had the hiccups a lot, too. She finally got to be just a regular hiccupper when she was about 10.

Love,
Janie

He's quite the handsome " lil feller" I can see why he has you all so in love with him. Have fun Grandma :)

I think you've just found the one way to calm him when he gets fussy. Point a camera at him. Or maybe it's looking at you that calms him? So adorable!

Ian starring in his first video is just so adorable!

Eliza said...

Ian is so beautiful and such am active little man. Did you know your video is on a loop I saw a snow storm from october 2012 with Karma outside on the verandah with paw prints in the little bit of snow. Anyway you might want to fix it maybe there is also a tutorial of you and making some fountain pen booklets.

Thanks for sharing really enjoyed karma watching the snow from under the outside chair, we don't get snow here in Melbourne Australia.

Hugs Eliza

He's certainly very vocal!

Jenny Woolf said...

Oh lord how sweet is that! Wonderful!

Deb J. in Utah said...

What a handsome young man you have there! Thanks for sharing and have a good week!

Serena Lewis said...

Awwww.....so cute! No wonder everyone is so smitten with him. xx

When the video finishes, it automatically starts playing a different video from you YouTube channel. I don't think you want it doing that....may be a problem for people with slow connections.

Feral Turtle said...

He sure knows his Grandma. He seemed to be quite responsive to you. Everytime you speak, he pays attention! Love it! Thanks for sharing.

Intense Guy said...

So precious.

Dee said...

Dear Rita, how lovely to return to blogging and discover these videos of Ian and to hear your voice, so loving, in the background. What an active baby he is--I bet he has as much curiosity about life as he grandma!

Thanks also on this hot day in Missouri for that video of the snow fall up there in Fargo!

Aren't we living in a wonderful time--that we can take videos of our loved ones and our lives and post them on line! Peace.

Oh, he is precious!

Funny in My Mind said...

Wow! He is something special! Gorgeous! I know you are so proud of your kids and excited to be a grandma! Babies are just the best. My siter just had hers in May and my other 2 sisters are expecting as well. I am really thrilled for them as mine are adults now.

AliceKay said...

Poor little tyke. Hiccups are no fun for babies. LOL

You have an adorable grandson, Rita. :)

Hilary said...

Oh Rita! He's absolutely gorgeous. What a sweetie. I'll bet that Leah felt a lot of kicking during her pregnancy. That kid's going to be an athlete. SO sweet. And I do believe he waved bye-bye. ;)

That is a precious little grandson you have there. I haven't been online in a long time so I've missed a lot. I've been sick a lot of feeling terrible so haven't been online much other than facebook. I just started using bloglovin.com so I added yours in. Take care.
