Snow!!! February 6, 2010
Pittsburgh received 21 inches of snow over a 24 hour period from Friday night through Saturday night. Silas got decked out in his snow suit and headed out to enjoy it. After the snow fell, the sun came out and we had a beautiful snowed in week. I had the entire week off of work because the storm was so massive (plus 4 more inches of snow on Tuesday). Here are a few pictures from the winter wonderland.
and of course... a Video

Video mania - January 2010
Eric and Silas went to Valparaiso to visit Grandma Kathi January 15th-18th. Around that time, Eric got a bunch of great videos of Silas in action. I've spent some time today (February 22nd) uploading a few of them onto our flickr site, and I thought it might be nice to put a whole video post here on Silas's blog.
Here is Silas playing ball at a rest stop on the way home from Valpo
This next one is at the same rest stop. They had a lot of fun there.
After they got home, it was back to daily life in the winter - not a lot of getting out of the house. Here's Silas helping Eric empty the dishwasher.
Silas has also become quite adept at getting into his own chair when it's time to eat.
And this last video is a thing I find fascinating about our son. He prefers to go to sleep with a sippy cup, and whatever toy he was playing with last. Usually, it's a ball. On this particular morning, he woke up with his canoe paddle. Eric and I have speculated that he brings the toy to bed so he has something to play with right when he gets up. He sure seemed like he was glad to have his paddle on this morning.

Silas had an action-packed week this week. He got to hang out with his friend Ruby for the first time in weeks, then on Friday he went to the pediatrician for his 12 month checkup. His stats: Height - 28 inches, Head Circumference - 44.25 cm, Weight (fully clothed) - 18 pounds, 12 ounces. He's tiny and healthy.
We then got to spend the entire weekend with Zen, Jeanette and Laz visiting from NY. They had planned on visiting sometime in the next month or so, but decided on Thursday night that this would be the weekend to visit. It was a great last-minute treat! Laz and Silas had never met before. It was neat to watch them interact since they are only one week apart in age. I have a ton of photos to upload onto flickr. Once they are all up I will post a link to the set here. In the meantime, here are a few shots from the weekend adventures, including a cute video of Laz and Silas playing with the wagon.

VIDEO OF SILAS WALKING! It's only been eleven days since he started walking and he is getting steadier by the minute.
Also, here is the link to the flickr photos from Eric's family visiting over the weekend.

Silas got some nice presents at his birthday picnic. One of his favorites (so far) was a large bag of rubber duckies. Here's a video of him playing with them with Grandma Gail.

Silas is getting into everything. Here is a nice (but kinda dark, sorry) video of a pretty typical afternoon hanging out in our dining room. I call the video 'Babbling and Ballplay.'

Our last day of camping in West Virginia. The weather was phenomenal the entire time and overall we had a really wonderful time on the trip. Final time mentioning the flickr photos here. Below is one final pic of Silas playing in the leaves, and a video of Silas climbing the stairs in the playground at Chestnut Ridge Park where we camped.

Silas wants to do everything we do including eat 'real' food all by himself. Here is a video of him eating pancakes for breakfast. Below is from a nice walk we had in Frick Park with our baby and mommy friends.

Another VIDEO. We spent a little time outside today walking with Silas's wagon. He's getting pretty good at it. He fell more going away from the camera because there is a very slight downhill to the sidewalk.

Silas is moving too fast for me! This is a decent video of the two of us playing with the blocks together. Ooooh, also, Silas is getting a 3rd tooth! I felt it today!!

Eric, Silas and I went to a new coffee house near the Glass Factory... I forget what it's called, but I know it starts with an A. Silas enjoyed it and their coffee is great. Then, we came home and he took a ride in his wagon... watch the video :).

This is one of the best videos yet of Silas. He is so adorable! (I know, I'm biased... I'm his mom, but it really is great!).

Back in Pittsburgh. Silas is back to getting in to everything. Here is a short VIDEO of him pulling up to standing.

Big day today for Silas. He is officially able to sit on his own.
And, here is a video of him going in circles. Mobility is just around the bend!

90 second Video of Silas intently playing with the camera strap... everything belongs in his mouth right now.

Ok, I'm really excited about this. I don't spend a lot of time with Silas on the floor, but just yesterday we spent some quality tummy time on the floor where I was rolling him over so he could get the feel for it (Eric has done this in the past as well). So, last night, we were hanging out on the floor and Silas just rolled right over - all by himself! So this morning I set out to capture it on video.

Silas's first video on his blog. He's not super vocal, but it's still cute.
Silas and I met Becky and Tim at Mellon Arena to hear Barack Obama speak. We were 2 rows from the top and it was crazy loud. Silas didn't seem to like all the clapping and screaming. These pictures are about 5 minutes before Obama took the stage.
