Miscellaneous Videos

Here are a few miscellaneous video clips that we've taken over the last month or so.


Cousin Nathan really entertained Naomi with this dancing monkey stuffed animal during our trip to Florida.

It's been a crazy winter in Portland this year so it was only appropriate that we got some snow (as well as other types of precipitation) during our visit in March.

Almost anything can become an exciting toy for Naomi these days. As illustrated by her enthusiasm when she discovered the luggage tag still hanging from the handle of her car seat.

Naomi is learning to lunge for objects and getting closer to standing on her own all the time. Here she shows off some of her progress during our time in Portland.

Naomi usually really enjoys her bath times. She loves to kick and splash, she's becoming quite an expert.

Hope you enjoyed the videos.

More to come

Just wanted to let you all know that we are taking pictures and video of Naomi. Right now we only have dial up Internet access at the home we're staying at so we have to come to Starbucks or the local library to use the Internet for almost anything. We will be posting more pictures and video as we can.

We are doing well. We're busy getting settled in and trying to establish routines while getting to know people. Naomi is doing well. We're making her put herself back to sleep when she wakes up in the night. Some nights are better than others but things seem to be moving in the right direction. She's growing up fast. She just turned 6 months and is already eating large amounts of solid foods. She's sitting up unsupported for long stretches which has increased her ability to play by herself. Just yesterday she started imitating our head movements and she seems to be making new discoveries every day.

Thanks for all of your prayers. Keep us posted on what is going on with you.
