10/27/13: Peekaboo around the corner
October 27, 2013
Sorry if these crawling around the corner videos are getting boring. We are playing a bit of Peekaboo around the corner, but I like this video because the tip of her pigtail lets you know her little cute face is coming.

10/26/13: More crawling and something that might be dancing
October 26, 2013
Now that Samara has been crawling around the corner of the counter a bit, she has learned to anticipate our presence and gets excited.
Later that evening, Seth was playing some music and Samara was doing something like an intense Superman shake. Maybe this is her dancing?

10/24/13: Shivers and feeding myself
October 24, 2013
Samara has been shivering a lot recently. I am not sure why, as we keep the house at a constant temperature. I asked the pediatrician about it and she didn't really seem to be too concerned about it as it could be related to her development. Since I am posting this months after this actually happened, it went away on its own. You can see her cute little shiver while she is playing with some new balls.
An additional new development is that Samara has added to her understanding of cause and effect. I gave her one of those food pouches, and she knows to squeeze/suck it to get some food out of it. She does not seem super pleased in the video. A few minutes after I stopped taping she started squeezing it really hard while shaking it all around, so I promptly took it away from her.

10/23/13: I found you!

Samara does something new, cute, and/or hilarious almost everyday. Here is something cute that she did for the first time:

10/19/13: I can play Peekaboo!
October 19, 2013
Grandma and Pop Pop came to visit this weekend. While we were out to dinner, Samara decided to show us that she knew how to play Peekaboo! She just grabbed the blanket and started hiding her face, while laughing and looking very pleased with herself. Here are two videos showing her playful side.

10/14/13: New face and more crawling
October 14, 2013
Anytime I see Samara making a new face, I race to get my camera to try to catch it before she never makes it again. Today and for the few days following it, she would make this face:
This is her take on a cute fishy face.
Now that Samara has been crawling for a while, she has learned to crawl faster and also let us know when she would like to be picked up. She stops crawling then does a weird Superman-type wiggle when she wants one of us to pick her up. You can see her do it at the end of this video. She also likes exploring the floor by either licking it (also seen in this video) or blowing on it.

10/08/13: Paper towel giggles
October 8, 2013
I fed Samara her dinner and was cleaning her face, which she usually hates with a burning passion, but today was different. She found humor and amusement in the activity, so I whipped out my phone and captured this rare moment.

10/06/13: I like looking for necklaces
October 6, 2013
Samara's memory has improved; she has the ability to remember where things are located from day to day. For example, she knows that Seth has a shiny necklace beneath his shirt. She knows to look under his shirt to find it. However, she doesn't remember who wears necklaces and who doesn't. She will often scrape my neck looking for a necklace that isn't there.

10/05/13: Visiting Grampi and Grandma
October 5, 2013
Sorry for the long hiatus, everyone! I started to get really busy with school then I decided it would be a really good idea to dump water all over my computer and destroy my hard drive, which included all my edited Samara pictures.
To pick up where I left off, here is a video where Samara is playing on Grampi's lap, but then Grandma started playing peekaboo behind Grampi's chair. You can see in the video how vocal Samara is becoming.
